Answer:

Dimension => 10 m × 9.6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Area (A) = 96 m²

Circumference (C) = 39.2 m

Dimension =.?

Next, we shall determine the Lenght and breadth of the rectangle. This can be obtained as follow:

Let L be the Lenght

Let B be the breadth

Area of a rectangle = L × B

96 = L × B ..... (1)

Circumference of rectangle = 2(L + B)

39.2 = 2(L + B) .... (2)

From equation 2, make L the subject

39.2 = 2(L + B)

Divide both side by 2

39.2 /2 = L + B

19.6 = L + B

Rearrange

L = 19.6 – B ....(3)

Substitute the value of L in equation 3 into equation 1

96 = L × B

L = 19.6 – B

96 = (19.6 – B ) × B

Clear bracket

96 = 19.6B – B²

Rearrange

B² – 19.6B + 96 = 0

Solving by factorisation

B² – 10B – 9.6B + 96 = 0

B(B – 10) – 9.6(B – 10) = 0

(B – 9.6)(B – 10) = 0

B – 9.6 = 0 or B – 10 = 0

B = 9.6 or B = 10

Substitute the value of B into equation 3:

L = 19.6 – B

B = 9.6

L = 19.6 – 9.6

L = 10

Or

L = 19.6 – B

B = 10

L = 19.6 – 10

L = 9.6

Since the length is always longer than the breadth,

Length (L) = 10 m

Breadth (B) = 9.6 m

Finally, we shall determine the dimension of the rectangle. This can be obtained as follow:

Length (L) = 10 m

Breadth (B) = 9.6 m

Dimension =?

Dimension = L × B

Dimension = 10 m × 9.6 m

Given that (-3, 5) is on the graph of f(x), find the corresponding point for the function f(x) − 4.
sveticcg [70]
The graph of f(x) - 4 is obtained by translating the graph of f(x) 4 units down.
Therefore, the corresponding point for the function f(x) - 4 is (-3, 5 - 4) = (-3, 1).

This makes no sense, help pls

Please mark me branliest!

**Answer**

16 if you want exact, 20 if you want a little over.

**Explanation**

So check this... it's $50 per student that attends the camp, right?

(Nod if you're with me.)

The dude buys 5 dozen donuts for 16 days. 50 x 16 = 800

5 dozen is the same as 50 donuts.

You multiply to get the total amount of donuts he buys in the total days (16).

Each 10 donuts costs 10 dollars.

If the dude buys 800 donuts it cost him $800.

And it costs 50 dollars for someone to go to camp.

So you divide 800/50 = 16 students

Now the problem says "In order to break even" I'm not sure what that means. But I'm assuming it doesn't want 16 then, because the price of 16 students would be the same (even) as the price of donuts that Mr. Brook buys. In that case it would be 20.

You are very welcome!!
