First we need to find out how many cups are in a gallon.
1 gallon = 4 quarts = 8 pints = 16 cups
So now divide the total number of available cups with the number of people.
16 / 32 = 0.5 cups/person
Answer:
The distance the player throws the ball is
Step-by-step explanation:
see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem
In the right triangle ABX
XA --------> is the distance the player throws the ball (hypotenuse of the right triangle)
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem
substitute the values
Length (L): 2w + 3
width (w): w
Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w
60 = 2(2w + 3) + 2(w)
60 = 4w + 6 + 2w
60 = 6w + 6
54 = 6w
9 = w
Length (L): 2w + 3 = 2(9) + 3 = 18 + 3 = 21
Answer: width = 9 feet, length = 21 feet
