Imagine you had 40 one-metre sections of fencing.

Answer: If I’m not mistaken, the largest area is 75 m2 and the smallest is 2 m2

Step-by-step explanation:

For both : since they are asking for the area, you should calculate the perimeter.

So for the largest area, since you know that you have 40 fences, and each are 1 meter long, and they’re also asking for the largest rectangular area, this means that only the opposite sides will have the same length, so in order to divide the rectangle with the 40 one-meter fences, the biggest sides have to be 15 meters long (so for both : 15x2=30 meters). Then you deduct from 40, 30 : 40-30 = 10 which then you can devide by 2 and find 5 + 5 and that means that the 2 smallest sides will be 5 meters long each. Then finally to calculate the perimeter you should do the biggest side multiplied by the smallest side : 15 x 5 and you find 75 m2 (squaremeters), if I’m not mistaken.

And for the smallest area you take the smallest possibilities knowing that only the opposite sides should have the same length and not all of them, so you do 1 x 2 and you find 2 m2.

A sporting goods store has a sale on soccer balls: if you buy two soccer balls at the regular price, you get a third soccer ball
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The regular price of the balls is $8

Step-by-step explanation:

The sporting goods store sales promotion is as follows;

The price of the third ball after buying two balls at regular price = $1.00

The price of the number of balls Coach John pays for the balls he bought = $136

To buy 24 balls, we have;

2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1

Therefore;

The number of balls bought at regular price = The sum of the 2s = 16 balls

The number of balls bought for $1 = 24 - 16 = 8 balls

Let x represent the regular price of the balls, we have;

16 × x + 8 = 136

16·x = 138 - 8 = 128

x = 128/16 = 8

The regular price of the balls = x = $8.

At a race track you have the opportunity to buy a ticket that requires you to pick the first and second place horses in the firs
rewona [7]

Answer:

4032 different tickets are possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : At a race track you have the opportunity to buy a ticket that requires you to pick the first and second place horses in the first two races. If the first race runs 9 horses and the second runs 8.

To find : How many different tickets are possible ?

Solution :

In the first race there are 9 ways to pick the winner for first and second place.

Number of ways for first place - ^9C_1=9

Number of ways for second place - ^8C_1=8

In the second race there are 8 ways to pick the winner for first and second place.

Number of ways for first place - ^8C_1=8

Number of ways for second place - ^7C_1=7

Total number of different tickets are possible is

n=9\times 8\times 8\times 7

n=4032

Therefore, 4032 different tickets are possible.
