Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
For maximum area, all of the wire should be used to construct the square.
The minimum total area is obtained when length of the wire is 10m
Step-by-step explanation:
For maximum, we use the whole length
For minimum,
supposed the x length was used for the square,
the length of the side of the square = x/4m
Area =
For the equilateral triangle, the length of the side =
Area =
Total Area = +
, therefore it is minimum
x = 10.00m
Box = b
Parrots = p
b/p = number of days it can support the parrots
Half a dozen = 6 (A dozen is 12)
1/6 = 15
To work out the percentage of '6' '5' is, use the equation
(5/6)*100 = 83.333....
Meaning that with one less bird, the box will support the birds for 16.666... (100 - 18.333...) longer
(15/100)*116.666... = 17.4999....
The box will sustain the parrots for 17.5 days
