Length is 20

ratio is 8:5

20:?=8:5
20/?=8/5
times both sides by 5?
100=8?
divide both sides by 8
25/2=?
12.5=?

the shorter side is 12.5ft

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that if possible in the group of 101, each had a different number of friends.  Then the no of friends 101 persons have 0,1,2,....100 only since number of friends are integers and non negative.

Say P has 100 friends then P has all other persons as friends.  In this case, there cannot be any one who has 0 friend.  So a contradiction.  Hence proved

Part ii: EVen if instead of 101, say n people are there same proof follows as

if different number of friends then they would be 0,1,2...n-1

If one person has n-1 friends then there cannot be any one who does not have any friend.

Thus same proof follows.

MAXImum [283]

Answer: <u><em>188 pairs of rabbits would be produced after fourteen months</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Given: Newborn rabbits become adults in one month.

Each pair of adult rabbits produces one pair each month.

No rabbits die.

The Fibonacci sequence can be written as :

X_{n} = 0  1  1  2  3  5  8  13  21  34 ..........................

This series can be further written as:

X_{n} = X_{n-1} + X_{n-2}

Therefore for n = 14;

<u><em>X_{14} = 377</em></u>
