Remember that the area of a rectangle is the length of the rectangle multiplied by the width of the rectangle.
In this case, we could say (where 
is the area of the rectangle):
Substituting the values the problem gave us for 
and 
, we can find the formula for 
in terms of 
, which is:
The formula for the area of the rectangle would be A(x) = 10x³ - 20x² + 65x.

Let the distance of two consecutive stones are x, x+1.
In ΔBCD, we have
tan60

15/100*x=39
x=39*100/15
x= 260 is the total number of people who were asked
Answer:
1 / 2
Step-by-step explanation:
- First observe that the fate of the last person is determined the moment either the first or the last seat is selected! This is because the last person will either get the first seat or the last seat. Any other seat will necessarily be taken by the time the last guy gets to 'choose'.
- Since at each choice step, the first or last is equally probable to be taken, the last person will get either the first or last with equal probability: 1/2
- Armed with the key observation, we see that the event that the last person's correct seat is free, is exactly the same as the event that the first person's seat was taken before the last person's seat.
- Well, each person had to make a random choice, was equally likely to choose the first person's seat or the last person's seat - the random chooser exhibits absolutely no preference towards a particular seat. This means that the probability that one seat is taken before the other must be 1/2
