find the dimensions of a rectangle whose width is 5 miles less than its length and whose area is 66 square miles

1 answer:

4 0

A = l * w
66 = l * (l - 5)
66 = $l^{2}$ -5l
0 = $l^{2}$ -5l - 66

l = 11 or 6 check which works.

A = 11 * 6, which fits.

length = 11 miles
width = 5 miles

Evaluate Combination (6,6)

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

$nCx = \frac{n!}{x! (n-x)!}$

On this case n =6 and x =6 we got:

$6C6 = \frac{6!}{6! (6-6)!} = \frac{6!}{6! 0!}= \frac{6!}{6!}=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

The utility for the combination formula is in order to find the number of ways to order a set of elements

For this case we want to find the following expression:

$6C6$

And the general formula for combination is given by:

$nCx = \frac{n!}{x! (n-x)!}$

On this case n =6 and x =6 we got:

$6C6 = \frac{6!}{6! (6-6)!} = \frac{6!}{6! 0!}= \frac{6!}{6!}=1$

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

The skid distance to be used is 54 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Four skid marks on the highway.

$52,52,56,56$ in feet.

We have to find the skid distance.

The skid distance that will be used to further calculate the skid speed is actually the mean skid distance.

Mean skid distance (m) :

⇒ $(m)=\frac{Sum\ of \ the\ skid\ marks }{Number\ of\ skid\ marks}$

⇒ $(m) =\frac{52+52+56+56}{4}$

⇒ $(m) =\frac{216}{4}$

⇒ $(m)=54$ feet.

So the skid distance to be used is 54 feet.
