3. If a customer has $50.00 to spend, for how many hours can they rent the bicycle?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, so Steve has $50 in his pocket. He wants to rent a bike for the maximum amount of time possible with his money. It costs him $12 per hour to rent a bike.

To solve this problem use simple arithmetic:

($50/$12=4.16)

So Steve is able to rent the bike for 4.16 hours, but we aren't done yet. Steve cannot purchase 16% of an hour, he can only buy FULL hours, so with his $50 , the maximum amount of time he can buy is 4 hours!

Let me know if you need any further explanations :)

If the perimeter of square region S and the perimeter of rectangular region R are equal and the sides of R are in the ratio 2:3

horrorfan [7]

Answer: The correct option is (B) 24 : 25.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the perimeter of square region S and the perimeter of rectangular region R are equal and the sides of R are in the ratio 2 : 3.

We are to find the ratio of the area of R to the area of S.

Let 2x, 3x be the sides of rectangle R and y be the side of square S.

Then, according to the given information, we have

$\textup{Perimeter of rectangle R}=\textup{Perimeter of square S}\\\\\Rightarrow2(2x+3x)=2(y+y)\\\\\Rightarrow 5x=2y\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{y}=\dfrac{2}{5}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

Therefore, the ratio of the area of R to the area of S is

$\dfrac{2x\times3x}{y\times y}\\\\\\=\dfrac{5x^2}{y^2}\\\\\\=6\left(\dfrac{x}{y}\right)^2\\\\\\=6\times\left(\dfrac{2}{5}\right)^2~~~~~~~~~~~[\textup{Using equation (i)}]\\\\\\=\dfrac{24}{25}\\\\=24:25.$

Thus, the required ratio of the area of R to the area of S is 24 : 25.

Option (B) is CORRECT.
