Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = 1/2 * base * height

Using the given information,

45 = 1/2 * L * 6

45 = 3L simplify

15 = L divide both sides by 3

A particular Spotify playlist contains 105 songs, of which 10 are by the Beatles. Suppose the shuffle feature is used to play th

katovenus [111]

Answer: The required probability is 0.3296.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of songs = 105

Number of songs are by the Beatles = 10

So, Number of songs are not by the Beatles = 105-10=95

So, the probability that the first Beatles song heard is the fifth song played is given by

$\dfrac{^{95}C_4\times ^{10}C_1}{^{105}C_5}\\\\=0.3296$

Hence, the required probability is 0.3296.

A rectangular plot of farmland will be bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a single-strand electric f

likoan [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length and y be the width of the rectangular plot.

The plot is bounded on one side by a river and on the other three sides by a single-strand electric fence. It means,

x+2y = 1500

x = 1500 - 2y ....(1)

We know that the area of a rectangular plot is given by :

A = xy ....(2)

Put the value of x from equation (1) in (2)

$A=(1500-2y)y\\\\A=1500y-2y^2$ .....(3)

For largest area, differentiate above area equation wrt y.

$\dfrac{dA}{dy}=\dfrac{d}{dy}(1500y-2y^2)\\\\=1500-4y\\\\\text{Put}\ \dfrac{dA}{dy}=0\\\\1500-4y=0\\\\y=\dfrac{1500}{4}\\\\=375$

Put the value of y in equation (1).

x = 1500-2(375)

= 750 m

Put the value of y in equation (3).

$A =1500(375)-2(375)^2\\A=281250\ m^2$

Hence, the largest area is 281250 m² and its dimensions are 750 m and 375 m.
