Answer:
<em>P=760</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Three of the coordinates of the square ABCD are A(-212,112) B(-212,-3) C(2,112). The image below shows the square is not ABCD but ABDC. In fact, this is not a square, as we'll prove later.
Note the x-coordinate of A and B are the same. It means this side is parallel to the y-axis. Also, the y-coordinate of A and C are the same, meaning this side is parallel to the x-axis. The missing point D should have the same x-coordinate as C and y-coordinate as B, i.e. D=(2,-3).
This shape has sides that are parallel to both axes.
To calculate the perimeter we find the length of two sides.
The distance from A to B is the difference between their y-axis:
w=112-(-3)=115
The distance from A to C is the difference between their x-axis:
l=2-(-212)=215
It's evident this is not a square but a rectangle. The perimeter is
P=2w+2l=330+430
P=760
Each medal is different and is handed out depending on the outcome of the race/order of the racers, so we're counting the number of permutations. 4 medals are given to 4 runners, so there are

possible ways to do it.
Answer:
23. 0.4583 seconds
24. 0.0107 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement tells you how to work it. You need to convert speed from miles per hour to feet (or inches) per second.
90 mi/h = (90·5280 ft)/(3600 s) = 132 ft/s = (132·12 in)/s = 1584 in/s
__
23. The time it takes for the ball to travel 60.5 ft is ...
time = distance/speed
time = (60.5 ft)/(132 ft/s) = 0.4583 s
It takes 458.3 milliseconds to reach home plate.
__
24. time = distance/speed
time = (17 in)/(1584 in/s) = 0.0107 s
The ball is in the strike zone for 10.7 milliseconds.
Answer:
First piece = 6 inches
Second piece = 12 inches
Third piece = 18 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the first piece = x
Length of the second piece = 2x
Length of the third piece = 3x
Total length is 36 inches:
x + 2x + 3x = 36
6x = 36
x = 6
Therefore, the lengths are:
First piece = 6 inches
Second piece = 12 inches
Third piece = 18 inches
