From a reliable source, the ratio between the width and the length of the tennis court is equal to 5:12. We let x be the common factor of the given ratio such that the width is equal to 5x and the length is equal to 12x. 

The perimeter of the figure is calculated through the equation,
              P = 2L + 2W
where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is the width. 

Substituting the derived expressions to the equation above.

             228 = (2)(12x) + 2(5x)
                x = 114/17
The width and length are calculated below.
     Width = (5)(114/17) = 570/17 ft = 33.53 ft
     Length = (12)(114/17) = 1368/17 ft = 80.47 ft

Thus, the dimensions are approximately 33.53 ft and 80.47 ft.

Using an ordered alphabet of 26 letters, how many ways are there to choose a set of six letters such that no two letters in the
mestny [16]
To find our solution, we can start off by creating a string of 27 boxes, all followed by the letters of the alphabet. Underneath the boxes, we can place 6 pairs of boxes and 15 empty boxes.The stars represent the six letters we pick. The empty boxes to the left of the stars provide the "padding" needed to ensure that no two adjacent letters are chosen. We can create this - 
\binom {21} {6}= \frac{21*20*19*18*17*16}{6*5*4*3*2*1} =21*19*17*8=54264
Thus, the answer is that there are \boxed{54264} ways to choose a set of six letters such that no two letters in the set are adjacent in the alphabet. Hope this helped and have a phenomenal New Year! <em>2018</em>
