Answer:

188 wrestlers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

F =5w + 75

F = 1013

Required

Determine the number of wrestlers (w)

We have:

F =5w + 75

Substitute: F = 1013

1013 = 5w + 75

Collect like terms

5w = 1013 - 75

5w = 938

Divide both sides by 5

w = 187.6

Round up to get the number of wrestlers

w = 188

Geometric Probability
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) P= Area of Circle/ Area of large rectangle

Area of the circle = pi·r² = pi·2²=4 pi ft.²

Area of large rectangle=  l·w -12·10 =120 ft.²

P = 4pi/120 rewrite 120 as 4·30

P= 4 pi/4*30 = pi/30 = 3.14/40 ≈ .1047 ≈10% (because .1047·100 =10.47≅10)

2) P = Area of smaller rectangle/ Area of large rectangle

Area of smaller rectangle = l·w = 2·4 =8 ft.²

Area of large rectangle=l·w = 12·10=120 ft²

P= 8/120 ≅ .0666≅ 7% (because .0666·100 =6.66≅7)

3) P= Not the circle or smaller rectangle/ Area of large rectangle

Not the circle or smaller rectangle area

= Area of large rectangle - Area of circle -Area of smaller rectangle

= 120 -4·pi -8 = 120 - (4· 3.14) -8 = 99.4362939 ft²

Area of large rectangle = l·w = 12·10 =120 ft²

P = 99.4362939 /120 ≅ .8286 ≅83% (because .8286·100 =82.86≅83)

Help with question 5a
Llana [10]
This is a refreshing question!

We are given that
f(r)=ar+b, and
Sum f(r) =125 for r=1 to 5
Sum f(r) = 475 for r=1 to 10.

and we know, using Gauss's method, that
G(n)=sum (1,2,3.....n) = n(n+1)/2 or
G(n)=n(n+1)/2

Sum f(r) =125 for r=1 to 5
=>
sum=a(sum of 1 to 5) + 5b => G(5)a+5b=125   [G(5)=15]
15a+5b=125 ...................................................(1)

Similarly, Sum f(r) =  475 for r=1 to 10 => G(10)a+5b=475  [G(10)=55]
=>
55a+10b=475.................................................(2)

Solve system of equations (1) and (2)
(2)-2(1)
55-2(15)a=475-2(125) => 25a=225 =>
a=9

Substitute a=9 in 1 => 15(9)+5b=125 => 5b=-10
b=-2

Substitute a and b into f(r), 
f(r)=9r-2
check: sum f(r), r=1,5 = (9-2)+(18-2)+(27-2)+(36-2)+(45-2)=135-10=125 [good]

We define the sum of f(r) for r=1 to n as
S(n)=sum f(r) for r=1 to n = 9(sum 1,2,3....n)-2n = 9n(n+1)/2-2n = 9G(n)-2n
S(n)=9n(n+1)/2-2n
checks:
S(5)=9(15)-2(5)=135-10=125  [good]
S(10)=9(55)-2(10)=495-20=475 [good]

Hence 
(a)
S(n)=sum f(r) for r=1,n
= 9(sum i=1,n)+n(-2)
= 9(n(n+1)/2 -2n
=(9(n^2+n)/2) -2n

(b) sum f(r) for i=8,18
=sum f(r) for i=1,18  -  sum f(r) for i=1,7
=S(18)-S(7)
=(9(18^2-18)/2-2(18))-(9(7^2-7)/2-2(7))
=1503-238
=1265
