Answer:

k = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Look for the missing factors that make all of the factors of 60k be squares.

60 = 2² × 3 × 5

The factors 3 and 5 each have an odd exponent (1), so those two factors must be part of k.

60k = 2² × 3 × 5 × k

is a perfect square when ...

3 × 5 = k = 15

For k = 15, 60k = 900 = 30²

Answer:

28 different ways

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a combination question. Combination has to do with selection.

Total number of element in the set = 8

Number divisible by 6 or 8 are {-98, -48, -42, -36, -18, -6}

Total number divisible by 6 or 8 is 6

The number of ways we can choose 6 items from 8 is expressed as;

8C6 = 8!/(8-6)!6!

8C6 = 8!/(2)!6!

8C6 = 8*7*6!/2!6!

8C6 = 8*7/2

8C6 = 56/2

8C6 = 28 ways

Hence there are 28 different ways

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

BLUE PENTAGON

The blue shape represents the Pentagon

The length of the side a = 7

As there are 5 sides.

Thus,

The Perimeter of the Blue Pentagon = P = 5a = 5(7) = 35

Using the formula to determine the area of the Pentagon

$A=\frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5\left(5+2\sqrt{5}\right)}a^2\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:$

$A=\frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5\left(5+2\sqrt{5}\right)}\left(7\right)^2\:\:\:\:\:\:$

$A\approx 84.3\:\:\:$

Thus,

The Area of the Blue Pentagon = $A\approx 84.3\:\:\:$

RED PENTAGON

The red shape represents the Pentagon

The length of the side a = 4

As there are 5 sides.

Thus,

The Perimeter of the Red Pentagon = P = 5a = 5(4) = 20

Using the formula to determine the area of the Pentagon

$A=\frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5\left(5+2\sqrt{5}\right)}a^2\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:$

$A=\frac{1}{4}\sqrt{5\left(5+2\sqrt{5}\right)}\left(4\right)^2\:\:\:\:\:\:$

$\:A\approx 27.5$

The Area of the Red Pentagon = $\:A\approx 27.5$

Conclusion:

The Perimeter of the Blue Pentagon = 35

The Perimeter of the Red Pentagon = 20

Thus, the ratio of the perimeter is: 35/20 = 7/4

The Area of the Blue Pentagon = 84.3 = 843/10

The Area of the Red Pentagon = 27.5 = 275/10

Thus, the ratio of the Area is:

$\frac{\frac{843}{10}}{\frac{275}{10}}=\frac{843}{275}$
