-- The smallest perimeter you can make with a certain area
is a circle.
-- The NEXT smallest perimeter with the same area is a square.
With 1-ft by 1-ft square bricks, the shortest perimeter she could
make would be by using her bricks to make it as square as possible.
Without cutting bricks into pieces, the best she could do would be
(13 bricks) x (3 bricks) .
= (13-ft) x (3-ft)
Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width)
= (2 x 13-ft) + (2 x 3-ft)
= (26-ft) + (6-ft) = 32 feet <== shortest perimeter.
-- Then, the more UNSQUARE you make it, the more perimeter
it takes to enclose the same area. That means Mary has to make
a rectangle as long and skinny as she can.
The longest perimeter she can make (without cutting bricks into
pieces) is (39 bricks) x (1 brick) .
= (39-ft) x (1-ft) .
Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width)
= (2 x 39-ft) + (2 x 1-ft)
= (78-ft) + (2-ft) = 80 feet .
What she'll have then is a brick path, 39 feet long and 1 foot wide,
and when you walk on it, you'll need to try hard to avoid falling off
because it's only 1 foot wide.
Answer: the length of the arc from her dog house to the hydrant is 69 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for determining the length of an arc is expressed as
Length of arc = θ/360 × 2πr
Where
θ represents the central angle.
r represents the radius of the circle.
π is a constant whose value is 3.14
From the information given,
Radius, r = 24 feet
θ = 165 degrees
Therefore,
Length of the minor arc, DG = 165/360 × 2 × 3.14 × 24
Length of arc = 69 feet rounded up to the nearest feet.
Answer:
The answer is 8
Step-by-step explanation:
12*10=120 120/15=8
Answer:
The correct answer is the equation stands as 4x =40 where x is the number of pages Naomi would require and the value of this x is 10.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of countries that competed in 1900 summer Olympic games is 28.
Number of countries that competed in 1904 summer Olympic games is 12.
Total number of countries competed in total is 40.
Each page of Naomi's report contains information about 4 of the countries that competed each year.
Let Naomi need x number of pages to incorporate the whole report.
Thus the equation now stands as 4 × x = 40.
⇒ x = 10.
Thus Naomi would require 10 pages to complete her report.
