Answer:

91

Step-by-step explanation:

Two similar polygons, means a similarity would exist in both polygons

  • Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l +w)
  • Perimeter of the larger rectangle = 36 (because it's the largest figure)
  • equation becomes  36 = 2(L + W)
  • since L = 14, it becomes = 36 = 2(14 +W)
  • 36 = 28 + 2W
  • 2W = 36 - 28 = 2w = 8
  • w = 4.

Now we assume that since the rectangles are similar, they would have similar dimensions, in this case Width. so with this, we find length  of smaller rectangle.

  • 21 = 2(L + 4) = 21 = 2L + 8
  • 2L = 21 - 8 = 2L = 13
  • L = 13/2 = 6.5.

lastly the product of the length of both polygons = 14 * 6.5 = 91.

Their Products length is 91

I don't understand the bottom with 1/2= and 0.48=! It says find the corresponding equivalent for either the decimal or fraction
zepelin [54]
So basically, you have to find the decimal that equals 1/2 and the fraction that equals 0.48, but it has to be in simplest form. If you divide 1 by 2, you get 0.5, which would be the answer to 1/2=. For 0.48=, you would start by putting 48 over 100 because if you read the decimal aloud, it is 48 hundredths and 0.48 goes to the hundredths place. Then, you would begin to simplify 48/100. A common divisor for those 2 numbers is 2, but you could also use 4. I am going to use 4, so 48/100=12/25. Now that you have the fraction 12/25, look to see if there are any common factors. There are none, so 0.48=12/25. 
Hope this helps!! :)

How many ways can we award a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prize among eight contestants?
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Total number of ways are 336.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is required to find the number of ways in which we can award a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place prize among eight contestants. It means we need to find the number of permutations. We need to find ^8P_3.

Here, r = 3

So,

^nP_r=\dfrac{n!}{(n-r)!}\\\\^8P_3=\dfrac{8!}{(8-3)!}\\\\^8P_3=\dfrac{8!}{5!}\\\\^8P_3=\dfrac{8\times 7\times 6\times 5!}{5!}\\\\^8P_3=336

So, there are 336 ways.
