12/30 = 18/45, so first you're going to cross multiply and you'll get (30)(18) = (12)(45). Then you can see that 540 = 540 same number so they're proportional...

BTW THIS WAY IS A LOT EASIER.

12/30 = 2/5

18/45 = 2/5

So yes, in summary, they're proportional to each other. Hope this helps, have a BLESSED and wonderful day! :-)

vovangra [49]

Answer: (A) $A=300l-l^{2}$

(B) Length varies between 1 and 150

Step-by-step explanation: Suppose length is l and width is w.

The rectangular garden has perimeter of 600ft, which is mathematically represented as

$2l+2w=600$

Area of a rectangle is calculated as

$A=lw$

Now, we have a system of equations:

$2l+2w=600$

$A=lw$

Isolate w, so we have l:

$2w=600-2l$

w = 300 - l

Substitute in the area equation:

A = l(300 - l)

A = 300l - l²

(A) Function of area in terms of length is given by A = 300l - l²

(B) The practical domain for this function is values between 1 and 150.

(C) For the largest area, we need to determine the largest garden possible. For that, we take first derivative of the function:

A' = 300 - 2l

Find the values of l when A'=0:

300 - 2l = 0

2l = 300

l = 150

Replace l in the equation:

w = 300 - 150

w = 150

Now, calculate the largest area:

A = 150*150

A = 22500

The largest area the fence can enclose is 22500ft².

A sporting goods store has a sale on soccer balls: if you buy two soccer balls at the regular price, you get a third soccer ball

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The regular price of the balls is $8

Step-by-step explanation:

The sporting goods store sales promotion is as follows;

The price of the third ball after buying two balls at regular price = $1.00

The price of the number of balls Coach John pays for the balls he bought = $136

To buy 24 balls, we have;

2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1

Therefore;

The number of balls bought at regular price = The sum of the 2s = 16 balls

The number of balls bought for $1 = 24 - 16 = 8 balls

Let x represent the regular price of the balls, we have;

16 × x + 8 = 136

16·x = 138 - 8 = 128

x = 128/16 = 8

The regular price of the balls = x = $8.

Plastic cups comes in an 10-pack, but paper plates come in a 12 pack. What is the smallest number of plastic cups and paper plat

Andrei [34K]

The answer is 60. You can find this out by finding the least common multiple of 10 and 12, which is 60 because 10x6=60 and 12x5=60. Hope this helps :)

(16 over 9) = 16!/(9!*7!) = 11440

2.) How many different ways can 3 cards be drawn from a deck of 52 cards without replacement?

52*51*50 = 132600

3.) How many different ways can 3 cards be drawn from a deck of 52 cards with replacement?

52^3 = 140608

4.) A corporation has 5 officers to choose from which 3 are selected to comprise the board of directors. How many combinations are there?
