Answer:

  36 ft by 16 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, you need to find dimensions of a rectangle such that the perimeter is 104 ft and the area is 576 ft. The perimeter is twice the sum of length and width, so the sum of length and width is 52 ft.

The area is the product of length and width, so if w represents the width, we have ...

  w(52 -w) = 576

  w² -52w = -576 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, multiply by -1

  w² -52w +26² = 26² -576 . . . . . .  complete the square

  (w -26)² = 676 -576 = 100

  w = 26 ±√100 =  {16, 36}

If the width is the short dimension, it is 16 feet. Then the length is 36 feet.

Using the weighed mean formula, it is found that Mara's average for the course was of 68.6.

<h3>What is the weighed mean?</h3>

The weighed mean is given by the <u>sum of all elements in a data-set multiplied by it's weight, divided by the sum of the weights</u>.

In this problem, the weights are as follows:

  • A quiz has a weight of 1.
  • A test has a weight of 2.
  • The final examination has a weight of 4.

Hence, her weighed mean is given as follows:

M = \frac{2(65 + 62 + 60) + (61 + 96 + 80 + 89) + 4(65)}{6 + 4 + 4} = 68.6

Mara's average for the course was of 68.6.

Answer:

calculus, geometry, arithmetic among a few

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematics is involved in winter Olympics in different aspects like arithmetic which helps in scores, measurements, quantities and motion  of the sport  like hockey, running.

Scoring in ice skating involves arithmetic operation when an individual element is assigned points and  judged on performance level( triple axle is 3 points but overall performance and artistry is measured by the judges).  

Another is Calculus  which helps to understand the change in acceleration and velocities while each skaters start at zero then win, Lines in Geometry such as the finish/start/sight lines helps players with angles of reflection, measuring angles and angles of incidence.

A company makes poppy lapel pins.
mezya [45]

Answer:

<h2>The required percentage is 65.45%.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total costing is 1000 \times 1.10 = 1100

35% were given to the charity, hence 350 were given to the charity.

There are (1000 - 350) = 650 lapel pins remaining.

60% of 650 = \frac{60}{100} \times 650 = 390 werre sold for 3.00 each. Hence, earning from here is 390 \times3 = 1170.

40% of 650 = 260 were sold at 5.00 for 2. It can also be said that \frac{260}{2} = 130 were sold at 5.00 each. Earning from this section is 130 \times5 = 650

Total earning is (1170 + 650) = 1820.

Profit percentage = \frac{1820 - 1100}{1100} \times100 = \frac{720}{11} = 65.45
