The room is 18 ft by 26 ft which is 468 ft^2

She can afford a 240 ft^2 rug

Here, Pages in books = Number of books * number of pages in one book

So, Pages of picture book = 10 * 25 = 250
& Pages of chapter book = 120 * 5 = 600

So, Number of Total pages = 250 + 600 = 850

So, Option (D) is your answer! Hope this helps!!

Find the number of possible outcomes in the sample space. The chess club must decide when and where to meet for a practice. The

Lesechka [4]

Solution

- The number of possible outcomes in the sample space is simply gotten by multiplying out all the events together.

- There are 3 possible days: Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday. Thus, there are 3 possible outcomes.

- There are 3 possible times: 3PM, 4PM, or 5PM. Thus, there are 3 possible outcomes again.

- There are also 9 possible classrooms available meaning another 9 possible outcomes.

- Thus, the total possible outcomes in the sample space is

$3\times3\times9=81\text{ possible outcomes}$

the area of a rectangular volleyball court is 1800 square feet the courts length is twice it width write a system of equations t

Marianna [84]

Answer:

The dimensions of the rectangular volleyball court are 60 ft x 30 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of rectangular volleyball court

y ---> the width of the rectangular volleyball court

we know that

The area of the rectangular volleyball court is equal to

$A=xy$

$A=1,800\ ft^2$

so

$1,800=xy$ ----> equation A

$x=2y$ -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A

$1,800=(2y)y$

$1,800=2y^2$

Solve for y

Simplify

$900=y^2$

take square root both sides

$y=30\ ft$

<em>Find the value of x</em>

$x=2y$

substitute the value of y

$x=2(30)=60\ ft$

therefore

The dimensions of the rectangular volleyball court are 60 ft x 30 ft
