A square that is 5yd on a side is placed inside a rectangle that has a width of 11yd and a length of 17 yd. What is the area of
Anit [1.1K]

Answer: 162  sq. yds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A square that is 5yd on a side is placed inside a rectangle that has a width of 11yd and a length of 17 yd.

Then , Area of rectangle = length x width

= 11 yd  x 17 yd = 187 sq. yds.

Area of square = (side)²  

= (5 yd)² = 25  sq. yds.

Now , the area of the region inside the rectangle that surrounds the square will be Area of rectangle - Area of square

= 187 sq. yds.- 25  sq. yds.

=162  sq. yds.

Hence, the area of the region inside the rectangle that surrounds the square is 162  sq. yds. .

Help me do this and you will get 100 points
faltersainse [42]

(b) To have no winner within the first 6 tosses means that there must be 3 tails and 3 heads tossed. So we count how many ways can that happen. The number of ways to choose 3 heads (or tails, doesn't matter) from 6 tosses is

{6\choose 3}=\frac{6\cdot 5\cdot 4}{3\cdot 2} = 20

so 20 ways winthin the 6 tosses. but the question was "how many ways among the 128 of 7 tosses" so we need to add the 7th toss by multiplying by another 2 possibilities for the outcome of the 7th toss, giving us the answer: among the 128 there are 40 games that are tied and need the 7th toss.

(c) The probability is the number of tied games (after 6 tosses) divided by the total number of possible configurations among 6 tosses:

P(\mbox{"7th toss needed"}) = \frac{20}{64} = \frac{5}{16}

Peter accumulated $7,500 in credit card debt. If the interest rate is 3.5% per year and he does not make any payments for 10 yea
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

$10579.49

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for amount gotten after a period of time (in years) on a principal which is compounded continuously is given as:

A = P(1 + r)^t

where P = principal (amount borrowed)

r = interest rate

t = number of years

Peter accumulated $7,500 in credit card debt with interest rate as 3.5% per year and he does not make any payments for 10 years.

Therefore, his debt is:

A = 7500(1 + \frac{3.5}{100})^{10}\\ \\A = 7500 (1 + 0.035)^{10}\\\\A = 7500(1.035)^{10}\\

A = $10579.49

He will owe $10579.49 after 10 years
