Answer:

width = 7 and length = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume width = w, and length = 2 + w

So area of a rectangle = width * length

63 ft² = w (2 + w)

63 = 2w + w²

w² + 2w - 63 = 0

Use the quadratic formula to solve this

here, a = 1, b = 2 and c = -63

w = 7 or -9

The dimensions of a rectangle cannot be negative. So we take the dimension, w = 7.

Width = 7 and Length = 7+2 = 9

A school debate team has four girls and six boys. A total of four of the team members will be chosen to participate in the distr
alex41 [277]
Procedure:

1) calculate the number of diferent teams of four members that can be formed (with the ten persons)
2) calculate the number of teams tha meet the specification (two girls and two boys)
3) Divide the positive events by the total number of events: this is the result of 2) by the result in 1)

Solution

1) the number of teams of four members that can be formed are:

10*9*8*7 / (4*3*2*1) = 210

2) Number of different teams with 2 boys and 2 girls = ways of chosing 2 boys * ways of chosing 2 girls

Ways of chosing 2 boys = 6*5/2 = 15
Ways of chosing 2 girls = 4*3/2 = 6

Number of different teams with 2 boys and 2 girls = 15 * 6 = 90

3) probability of choosing one of the 90 teams formed by 2 boys and 2 girls:

90/210 = 3/7

Answer:

351.658 square in

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the circumference of the circle

C = 25.13

Find area of the circle

A = 50.27

Multiply the circumference by the height

25.13 × 10 = 251.3

Add 251.3 with 50.27 twice

251.13 + 50.27 + 50.27 ≈ 351.658

Therefore your answer is D) 351.658 square in
