Answer:

Area of one of the triangles = 69.375 in² (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

One side of rectangle = 9.25 in

Other side of rectangle =  15 in

Diagonal create two equal right triangle.

Find:

Area of one of the triangles = ?

Computation:

⇒ Area of one of the triangles = 1/2 [One side of rectangle × Other side of rectangle]

⇒ Area of one of the triangles = 1/2 [9.25 × 15]

⇒ Area of one of the triangles = 1/2 [138.75]

⇒ Area of one of the triangles = 69.375 in² (Approx)

Kevin sold 2 unicycles and 1 bicycle for a total of $110. Greg sold 4 unicycles and 3 bicycles for a total cost of $268. What is
RSB [31]
Simultaneous Equations

2u +   b = $110
4u + 3b = $268

(x2) 4u + 2b = $220
(x1) 4u + 3b = $268

<em />If both the matching coefficients are the same, we subtract equation 2 from equation 1

2b - 3b = -b
$220 - $268 = $-48
-b = -$48
b = $48

If you want to find out what a unicycle costs...
Substitute b = $48 into the first equation
2u + $48 = $110
Balance the equation, whatever happens on one side, happens on the other.
2u + $48 (-$48) = $110 (-$48)
2u = $62
2u(/2) = $62(/2)
u = $31

How many 3 digit numbers are possible when a) the leading digit cannot be zero and the number must be a multiple of 4?
guajiro [1.7K]

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the digits can be repeated.

so, e.g. 555 is a valid number for this problem, right ?

that means we start with permutations with repetition :

n^r

n = the total number of items to pick from.

r = the number of items being picked per result.

we have 10 digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9), and we pick 3 of them.

that gives us (with very little surprise, I hope)

10³ = 1000 different possible numbers from 000 to 999.

from these numbers we eliminate all with leading 0.

as we handled all digits the same way and with the same priority, there is the same amount of numbers for every digit in the leading position.

that means 1/10 of the total amount of numbers has a leading 0, or a leading 1, or a leading 2, ...

so, we need to subtract 1/10 × 1000 from 1000 :

1000 - 1000×1/10 = 1000 - 100 = 900

that would be the numbers 100 to 999.

and we have one more condition : the number must be a multiple of 4.

how many are there ?

well, that's the funny thing about numbers : from all numbers 1/2 of them are multiples of 2 (or divisible by 2), 1/3 of them are multiples of 3 (or divisible by 3), and ... you guessed it, 1/4 of them are multiples of 4 (or divisible by 4). and so on.

and so, 1/4 of our 900 numbers are multiples of 4 :

1/4 × 900 = 225

so, there are 225 possible 3-digit numbers that are multiples of 4 and do not start with a 0.
