2. PB and J Array Ken has made a selection of square jam sandwiches for party, which he arranges in a single layer on the table

in perfect rectangle. Sarah has brought along the same number of square peanut butter sandwiches, which she puts out, also as a single layer, to form a border vA (one sandwich wide) around Ken's Given that all of the sandwiches are the same size and they are all used, how many sandwiches could each person possibly have made?

Let's assume Ken arranged his sandwiches in a rectangular shape with length 'L' and width 'W'. Now Sarah arranged her sandwiches to form a border around Ken's rectangle. The solution diagram is attached below.

Ken needs as much sandwiches as area of rectangle i.e. number of Ken's sandwiches would be = LW.

It is clear that Sarah needs as much sandwiches as perimeter of rectangle and extra four sandwiches to put on corners. It means number of Sarah's sandwiches would be = 2·(L+W) + 4.

Given that all of the sandwiches are the same size and they are all used.

Ken and Sarah bought same number of sandwiches. So we need to solve the following equation :-

Number of Ken's sandwiches = Number of Sarah's sandwiches

LW = 2·(L+W) + 4

Using trial and error approach, we get 6 x 4 = 2 x (6 + 4) + 4.

So number of Ken's sandwiches would be LW = 6 x 4 = 24 sandwiches.

Hence, final answer is "Each person could have 24 sandwiches".

I need help with someone explaining how to find the range of this! This course didn’t explain anything!
zaharov [31]

Answer:

(-infinity,3), D

Step-by-step explanation:

3 if x is greater than or equal to 1 is nothing. That leaves us with h(x)=2x+1 if x<1. If you substitute in 1 for x, you get 3, but of course that isn't possible, so the range is (-infinity,3), which is D.

Suppose A and B represent two different school populations where A &gt; B and A and B must be greater than 0. Which of the follo
Ulleksa [173]
We can reject the last one: subtracting a non-zero value will result in a smaller value.

So now we have:

<span>2(A + B)
(A + B)2
A2 + B2

If all of them are mulptiplications, then they are all equivalent!

I mean by this, if what you meant is this:

</span>
<span>2*(A + B)
(A + B)*2
A*2 + B*2

If there is no sign, then the multiplication sign is implicit,


and all of these expressions say exactly the same: two of A and two of B.

Enter your answer as a simplified fraction.
leva [86]

Answer:

1 5/24 total gallons remain

Step-by-step explanation:

yellow:  4/3 - 3/4 = 16/12-9/12 = 7/12

green:  5/4 - 3/4 = 5/4-3/4 = 2/4

blue:  7/8 - 3/4 = 14/16-12/16 = 2/16

7/12 + 2/4 + 2/16 = 28/48 + 24/48 + 6/48 =

58/48 or 1 5/24
