Answer:

length = 20 ft, width = 11 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

let w be width, then length = w + 9

The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal , then

2w + 2(w + 9) = 62

2w + 2w + 18 = 62

4w + 18 = 62 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

4w = 44 ( divide both sides by 4 )

w = 11

and w + 9 = 11 + 9 = 20

then width = 11 ft and length = 20 ft

Drupady [299]

Twelve people join hands for a circle dance.In how many ways can they do this? Suppose six of these people are men, and the other six are women. In how many ways can they join hands for a circle dance, assuming they alternate in gender around the circle

Answer:

86400 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the circle can be rotated, the number of ways to arrange a distinct number of n objects in a circle will be (n−1)!.

Now, if we rotate the circle with the six women, we will see that there are 5! ways with which they can be placed in the circle.

After picking the places for the women, we will now fill each gap between two women with a man.

We have 6 men. Thus, number of ways to arrange the men is 6!

Thus,number of ways they can join hands for a circle dance, assuming they alternate in gender around the circle = 5! × 6! = 86400 ways

another rectangle has length and width in the ratio of 3:2. If the length is increased by eight and the width is increased by 50
Andreyy89

Answer:

Area of the new rectangle  = 148.8 cm square

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the dimensions of the rectangle then the

Perimeter of the Original rectangle= 2(L+B)

                                                   = 2 ( 3x+2x) = 2(5x)= 10xcm

If the length is increased by eight the new length would be 3x+ 8

and width would be 2x+x= 3x after 50 % increase

Perimeter of the new rectangle= 2(L+B)

                                                     = 2 ( 3x+8 +3x)

                                                       = 2 (6x+8)

                                                       = 12x + 16

Ratio of the new perimeter to the original perimeter is

             New perimeter :   Original perimeter

                8                      : 5

           12x+ 16                   : 10x cm

80x= 60x + 16

20x= 16

x= 16/20= 4/5

Putting the value of length and breadth in place of x

Area of the new rectangle = L*B =  3 * (4/5) +8 *3(4/5)=

                                                                 = 12+ 40/5 * 12/5

                                                                   = 62/5* 12/5

                                                                     = 744/5

                                                                   = 148.8 cm square
