Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Black = 200 x 0.19 = 38
White = 200 x 0.12 = 24
Let W and L be width and length of the rectangular pen respectively.
Therefore,
Circumference, C = 2W+2L= 130 yd
Area, A = LW = 1050 yd^2=> L = 1050/W
Using the circumference expression and substituting for L;
130 = 2W + 2(1050/W) = 2W+2100/W
130*W = 2W*W + 2100
130W = 2W^2 +2100
2W^2-130W+2100 = 0
Solving for W;
W= [-(-130)+/- Sqrt ((-130)^2-4(2)(2100)]/2*2 = 32.5+/- 2.5
W = 30 or 35 yd
When W = 30, L = 1050/30 = 35
When W = 35, L = 1050/35 = 30
Therefore, W = 30 yd and L = 35 yd.
Answer:
6 pelicans
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = number of pelicans
Cody saw 4 times as many seagulls as pelicans:
⇒ number of seagulls = 4x
Total of 30 birds:
⇒ seagulls + pelicans = 30
⇒ 4x + x = 30
⇒ 5x = 30
⇒ x = 6
Therefore, there were 6 pelicans (and 24 seagulls).
