There are 120 ways to color the 4 rectangles

<h3>How to determine the number of ways?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Paints, n = 5

Rectangles, = 4

The number of ways to color the rectangles is

Ways = ^nP_r

This gives

Ways = ^5P_4

Apply the permutation formula

Ways = \frac{5!}{1!}

Evaluate the expression

Ways = 120

Hence, there are 120 ways to color the 4 rectangles

Find the surface area of the square pyramid.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

C)  45 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Formulae</u>

Area of a square = x²  (where x is the side length)

Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

The surface area of a square pyramid comprises:

  • square base
  • 4 congruent triangles

⇒ area of square base = 5² = 25 ft²

⇒ area of triangular face = 1/2 × 5 × 2 = 5 ft²

⇒ Total surface area = area of square base + 4 triangular areas

                                   = 25 + 4(5)

                                   = 25 + 20

                                   = 45 ft²

Solve for x show work -4 1/4x-7 6/8x=-190
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

x = 15 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 1/4x-7 6/8x=-190

get a common denominator 8

-4 1/4*2/2 x - 7 6/8 x = -190

-4 2/8 x - 7 6/8 x = -190

combine like terms

-11 8/8 x = -190

-12x = -190

divide by -12

-12x/-12 = -190/-12

x = 190/12

divide top and bottom by 2

x = 95/6

change to an improper fraction

6 goes into 95 15 times with 5 left over

x = 15 5/6

It takes 32 minutes for 3 people to paint 4 walls. How many minutes does it take 4 people to paint 7 walls?
meriva
We order these data:

32 minutes------------------------3 people------------------4 walls
x--------------------------------------4 people------------------7 walls
The minutes and the people are variables inversely proportional , therefore, we multiply in parallel
32 minutes*3 people=x*4 people

The minutes and the walls are variables directly proportinal; therefore, we  multiply cross.
32 minutes*7 walls=x*4 walls

Therefore:
32 minutes*3 people*7 walls=x*4 people*4 walls
x=(32 minutes*3 people*7 walls) / (4 people* 4 walls)
x=42 minutes.


Answer: the time will be 42 minutes.
