4 minutes

Set up 2 equations and solve

let b represent time taken to ride around block and

let n represent time taken to ride around neighbourhood, then

10b + n = 24 → (1)

5b + 2n = 18 → (2)

multiply (1) by - 2

- 20b - 2n = - 48 → (3)

add (2) and (3) term by term to eliminate n

- 15b = - 30 ( divide both sides by - 15 )

b = 2

substitute b = 2 into (1) and solve for n

20 + n = 24 ( subtract 20 from both sides )

n = 4

Thus it takes 4 minutes to ride around the neighbourhood

How many different 5-person subcommittees can be formed from a club having 12 members
Wittaler [7]
Given that there are 12 persons, the first choice may be in 12 different ways, the second choice may be in 11 different ways, ther third in 10 different ways, the fourth in 9 different ways and the fith in 8 different ways, for a total of:

12x11x10x9x8 different combinations.

Now you have to take in account that 5x4x3x2 are repetitions. So you have to divide the previos counting by 5x4x3x2.

(12x11x10x9x8)/(5x4x3x2) = 792 different subcommittees.

Also, you can use the formula for combinations: C(m,n) = m! / (n! (m-n)!)

C (12, 5) = 12! / (5!) (12-5)! = [12x11x10x9x8x7!] / [5! 7!] = [12x11x10x9x8]/[5x4x3x2] = 792

If the farmer has 250 feet of fencing to create a rectangular pen, define a function f that expresses the area of the field (mea
hoa [83]

Answer:

Maximum area possible

f(max)  = 3906,25 ft²

Dimensions:

a  = 62,5  ft

w  = 62,5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the rectangular fencing    P  =  250 feet

And sides of the rectangle  a  and  w (width of rectangle)

Then

A =  a*w

2a  + 2w  = 250       ⇒  a  =  (250 -2w)/ 2    ⇒  a = 125 - w

f(w)  =  (125  - w ) *w        f(w)  = 125w - w²  

Taking derivatives both sides of the equation

f´(w)   =  125  - 2w              f´(w)   = 0           125  - 2w = 0

w = 125/2

w = 62,5 ft            ⇒  a = 125 - 62,5

a = 62,5 ft

f(max)  = ( 62,5)²

f(max)  = 3906,25 ft²
