The area of rectangle R is 48. If its sides are whole numbers, then its perimeter cannot be__?

Mathematics

An odd number. That's because the formula for the perimeter is

P = 2* (L + W)

Multiplying by 2 is never going to produce an odd number.  The question is much trickier than it looks. What happens when you have a square with sides of 7.

The area = s^2

Area = 7 * 7

Area = 49 and that's odd. But can you get an odd perimeter? The answer is no. The perimeter of a square is 4s

P = 4s. If s = 7

P = 4*7

P = 28 which is even. If there is another answer, I'm unaware of it.

A: P = 2*(6 + 8) = 2*14 = 28 A is a correct Perimeter.

B: P = 2*(3 + 16) = 2*19 = 38 B is a correct Perimeter.

C:P = 2*? Can't find anything. C is the answer.

D:P = 2*(1 + 48) = 2*49 = 98. D is correct.

Answer: C

Type the correct answer in the box. The motion of a clock pendulum is modeled by this graph. The function describing this graph
Andreyy89

Answer:

The range of the function is -10, 10.

 The period of the function is 1.2 seconds.

The maximum of the function is 10 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of a cosine function is the set of output values. In this situation, the range is the distance the pendulum covers, which is represented on the D(t) axis. The graph shows that the range of the function D(t) is [-10, 10].

The period is the length of a cycle. The graph shows that the cycle repeats every 1.2 seconds.

The maximum is the y-value of the highest point on the graph. The graph shows the maximum of the function is 10 centimeters.

In how many ways can i arrange the 6 letters a, b, c, d, e, f?
Ivanshal [37]
If there are no restrictions, there can be; 

6 ways x 6 ways x 6 ways x 6 ways x 6 ways x 6 ways = 6^6 ways for the letters a, b, c, d, e and f to be arranged. 

However, if you want to arrange them so that each letter is used only once; 

6 ways x 5 ways x 4 ways x 3 ways x 2 ways x 1 way = 6! ways 

Hope I helped :)
