Answer:

Perimeter of NCAA court=288 feet

Perimeter of new court=259.2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Length of NCAA court, l=94 feet

Width of NCAA court, b=50 feet

Width of new court, b'=45 feet

We have to find the perimeter of an NCAA court and new court in the school.

Perimeter of NCAA court= $2(l+b)$

Perimeter of NCAA court= $2(94+50)$ feet

Perimeter of NCAA court=288 feet

When two rectangles are similar then the ration of their corresponding sides are equal.

Using the property

$\frac{Perimeter\;of\;NCAA\;court}{Perimeter\;of\;new\;court}=\frac{Width\;of\;NCAA\;court}{Width\;of\;new\;court}$

$\frac{288}{Perimeter\;of\;new\;court}=\frac{50}{45}$

Perimeter of new court= $\frac{288\times 45}{50}$ feet

Perimeter of new court=259.2 feet

Plz help me with this math and also explain

jasenka [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>[1]</h2>

SI = $250
Rate (R) = 12 $\sf \dfrac{1}{2}$ %
Time (t) = 4 years

$\longrightarrow \tt { SI = \dfrac{PRT}{100} } \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt { 250 = \dfrac{P \times 12\cfrac{1}{2} \times 4}{100} } \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt { 250 = \dfrac{P \times \cfrac{25}{2} \times 4}{100} } \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt { 250 = \dfrac{P \times 25 \times 2}{100} } \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt { 250 = \dfrac{P \times 50}{100} } \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt { 250 \times 100 = P \times 50} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt { 25000 = P \times 50} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt { \dfrac{25000}{50} = P } \\$

$\longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{ \green{ \tt { \$ \; 500 = P }}}} \\$

Therefore principal is $500.

2/7 of the balls are red.
3/5 of the balls are blue.
Rest are yellow.
Number of yellow balls = 36

Let the total number of balls be x.

→ Red balls + Blue balls + Yellow balls = Total number of balls

$\longrightarrow \tt{ \dfrac{2}{7}x + \dfrac{3}{5}x + 36 = x} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt{ \dfrac{10x + 21x + 1260}{35} = x} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt{ \dfrac{31x + 1260}{35} = x} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt{ 31x + 1260= 35x} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt{ 1260= 35x-31x} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt{ 1260= 4x} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt{ \dfrac{1260 }{4}= x} \\$

$\longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{ \tt { 315 = x }}} \\$

Total number of balls is 315.

A/Q,

3/5 of the balls are blue.

$\longrightarrow \tt{ Balls_{(Blue)} =\dfrac{3 }{5}x} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt{ Balls_{(Blue)} =\dfrac{3 }{5}(315)} \\$

$\longrightarrow \tt{ Balls_{(Blue)} = 3(63)} \\$

$\longrightarrow \underline{\boxed{ \green {\tt { Balls_{(Blue)} = 189 }}}} \\$

Simplify the expression. Write your answer as a power.<br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%285%5E%7B4%7D%20%29%5E%7B3%7D" id=

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

$5^{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say there's a number 'x' and there's an expression $(x^a)^b$ where 'a' & 'b' are also numbers , <u>the simplified form of the expression is </u> $x^{a \times b}$ <u>.</u>

So ,

$(5^4)^3 = 5^{4 \times 3} = 5^{12}$
