Answer:

35 students in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 5 students in the class, then 2 of them would wear glasses and 3 of them wouldn't. (Equation 1)

Now, there are 14 students how are wearing glasses.

We just times the whole Equation 1 by 7.

If there are 5 x 7 = 35 students in the class, then 2 x 7 = 14 of them would wear glasses and 3 x 7 = 21 of them wouldn't.

So, there are 35 students.

the two shorter sides of a triangle are the same length. the length of the longer side is 5 m longer than each of the shorter si
STatiana [176]
Let the length of the shorter sides be x, then
Perimeter = x + x + x + 5
29 = 3x + 5
3x = 29 - 5 = 24
x = 24/3 = 8

Therefore, the length of longest side is 8 + 5 = 13 m.

The area of a rectangle is 144 square centimeters. The width is 9 centimeters. Which of the following statements is true? Select
Ket [755]

Answer:

Option C and D are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = 144 cm^2

Width of rectangle = 9 cm

Length of rectangle = ?

We know,

Area of rectangle = Length * Width

144 = Length * 9

144/9 = Length

=> length = 16 cm

Option A is incorrect as 3 times width = 3* 9 = 27 but our length = 16 cm

Option B is incorrect as length = 16 cm and not 63 cm

Option C is correct as Length < 2(Width)

=> 16 < 2(9) => 16 < 18 which is true.

Option D is correct.

Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)

Perimeter = 2(16+9)

Perimeter = 50 cm

Option E is incorrect as Length ≠ Width

So

Total number of events   = P(8)

P (8)  =  8!

P (8)  =  8*7*6*5*4*3*2*1

P (8)  =  40320 different ways
