Answer:

12 feet x 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The classroom wall is 160 feet, and no more than 30% of it may be covered.

Multiply 160 times .3 to get the maximum amount of square feet that the bulletin board can cover.

You get 48 square feet for the bulletin board.

The length of the board is three times as long as the width, so the length must be 12 and the width must be 4 feet.

Answer: 12 feet x 4 feet

The amount of profit, p, you earn by selling knives, k, can be determined by: p=200k-500 a) Determine the constraints on profit
Natalka [10]
We are given with the formula
p = 200k - 500
a) The constraint for this formula is obtained from the idea that the profit must be positive
200k - 500 > 0 
k > 500/200
k > 2.5
b) To make 14000 profit
 14000 = 200k - 500
k = 72.5 or 73 knives must be sold

The measure of an angle is 78°. What is the measure of a complementary angle?
ki77a [65]
First you need to know the definition of a complementary angle. That means that two angles add up to 90 degrees, or a right angle.

To find an angle complementary to a 78 degree angle, you need to subtract 78 from 90. 

90 - 78 = 12
