The width used for the car spaces are taken as a multiples of the width of
the compact car spaces.
Correct response:
- The store owners are incorrect
<h3 /><h3>Methods used to obtain the above response</h3>
Let <em>x</em><em> </em>represent the width of the cars parked compact, and let a·x represent the width of cars parked in full size spaces.
We have;
Initial space occupied = 10·x + 12·(a·x) = x·(10 + 12·a)
New space design = 16·x + 9×(a·x) = x·(16 + 9·a)
When the dimensions of the initial and new arrangement are equal, we have;
10 + 12·a = 16 + 9·a
12·a - 9·a = 16 - 10 = 6
3·a = 6
a = 6 ÷ 3 = 2
a = 2
Whereby the factor <em>a</em> < 2, such that the width of the full size space is less than twice the width of the compact spaces, by testing, we have;
10 + 12·a < 16 + 9·a
Which gives;
x·(10 + 12·a) < x·(16 + 9·a)
Therefore;
The initial total car park space is less than the space required for 16
compact spaces and 9 full size spaces, therefore; the store owners are
incorrect.

5 is the mean of variable a I might be wrong
The partial circles in each corner mean that all 3 angles are identical, which means this is an equatorial triangle. In an equatorial triangle all three sides are the same.
We can set two of the equations to equal each other and solve for x:
3x -5 = 2x +20
Add 5 to each side:
3x = 2x +25
Subtract 2x from each side:
x = 25

The third one down
Because the best line of fit is a line that goes between the plotted points and it HAS to be a straight line and most of the points close to the line
