Answer:

2.75632 rounded to 5 decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

a(r^n-1)/r-1 is the formula for sum of geometric series

where a= first term (1.4)

n= number of terms(6)

r= common ratio(0.5)

What is the area of the piece of red paper after the hole for

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\large\boxed{47unit^2}}$

Explanation:

The complete question is:

A hole the size of a photograph is cut from a red piece of paper to use in a picture frame.

On a coordinate plane, 2 squares are shown. The photograph has points (-3, -2), (- 2, 2), (2, 1), and (1, -3). The red paper has points (- 4, 4), (4, 4), (4, -4), and (-4, -4).

What is the area of the piece of red paper after the hole for the photograph has been cut?

<h2>Solution</h2>

The area of the piece of redpaper after the hole has been cut is equal to the area of the big square less the area of the small rectangle.

1. Area of the big rectangle

Vertices:

(- 4, 4)
(4, 4)
(4, -4)
(-4, -4)

The side length is the distance between two consecutive vertices:

The two points (-4,4) and (4,4) has the same y-coordinate, thus the length is just the absolute value of the difference of the x-coordinates:

$4-(-4)=4+4=8$

The area of this square is $(8unit)^2=64unit^2$

2. Area of the small square

Vertices:

(-3, -2)
(- 2, 2)
(2, 1)
(1, -3)

To find the side length use the distance formula for two consecutive points, for instance (2,1) and (-2,2):

$d=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}\\ \\d=\sqrt{(2-(-2))^2+(2-1)^2}=\sqrt{4^2+1^2}=\sqrt{17}$

The area is:

$(\sqrt{17}unit)^2}=17unit^2$

3. Area of the piece of red paper after the holw for the photograph has been cut:

Find the difference:

$64unit^2-17unit^2=47unit^2$

16. How many different words can be formed with the letters of the word 'RAJARAM'? In how many of

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

The word "ARRANGE" can be arranged in

2!×2!

5040

=1260 ways.

For the two R's do occur together, let us make a group of R's taking from "ARRANGE" and permute them.

Then the number of ways =

=360.

The number ways to arrange "ARRANGE", where two "R's" will not occur together is =1260−360=900.

Also in the same way, the number of ways where two "A's" are together is 360.

The number of ways where two "A's" and two "R's" are together is 5!=120.

The number of ways where neither two "A's" nor two "R's" are together is =1260−(360+360)+120=660.

John has decided to prepare an old field for his son's new horse. the length of the field is 10 meters less than 4 times its wid

tatuchka [14]

Answer: The total money invested in the field will be $1,623.80

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the dimensions of the field

Let

x -----> the length of the field

y -----> the width of the field

p=2(x+y)

p(4.80)=1,584

p=330m

we know that

The perimeter of the field is equal to

330=2(x+y)----> equation A

x=4y-10 ------> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

330=2(4y-10+y)

165=(5y-10)

5y=165+10

y+35

Find the value of x

x=4(35)-10+130

therefore

The length of the field is 130 meters and the width of the field is 35 meters

step 2

Find the area of the field

The area of the field is

A=xy

substitute

A=(130)(35)=4,550m2

step 3

Find the number of bags of seed

Divide the area by 460

4,550/460=9.89 bags

Round up to the nearest whole number

9.89 bags=10 bags

step 4

Find the cost of the seed

(10 )(3.98)=$19.8

step 5

Find the total money invested in the field

1,584+$39.8=$1,623.80
