Illustrate the given problem. Refer to the diagram attached to aid our solution.

Area of bigger rectangle:
A = (L+8)(W+16)

Area of smaller rectangle (printed area)
388 = LW

From the second equation, we can express L in terms of W.
L = 388/W
Replace this to the first equation:
A = (388/W+8)(W+16)
A = 388 + 6208/W + 8W + 128
A = 6208/W + 8W + 516
Derive A with respect to W and equate to zero (calculus):
dA/dW = -6208/W² + 8 = 0
-6208/W² = -8
W² = -6208/-8 = 776
W = √776 = 27.86 cm
L = 388/27.86 = 13.93 cm

Thus, the smallest area would be:
A = (13.93 cm)(27.86 cm)
<em>A = 388.09 cm²</em>

First question seems incomplete :

Answer:

40 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Question B:

Number of boys = 6

Number of girls = 4

Number of people in committee = 3

Number of ways of selecting committee with atleast 2 girls :

We either have :

(2 girls 1 boy) or (3girls 0 boy)

(4C2 * 6C1) + (4C3 * 6C0)

nCr = n! ÷ (n-r)!r!

4C2 = 4! ÷ 2!2! = 6

6C1 = 6! ÷ 5!1! = 6

4C3 = 4! ÷ 1!3! = 4

6C0 = 6! ÷ 6!0! = 1

(6 * 6) + (4 * 1)

36 + 4

= 40 ways
