Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We could use the distance formula to find the distance between the points in this problem, but when we look we see that the sides of the rectangle are parallel to the x and y-axis for each pair of sides. The first two points have a distance of 3 because 4-1=3. Since it is a rectangle, the opposite side will have the same length. For the sides perpendicular, we look at the points with the same x coordinate. Using (4,2) and (4,-3), we can calculate the length of the side by finding the distance by adding the absolute values of the y coordinate. 2+3=5. This means that the triangle has two sides with a length of 5 and two sides with a length of 3. Adding these together, 5+5+3+3 = 16.

Yuliya22 [10]

You have to be very careful how you set this up. For every girl (who counts as 1) there are 3 boys (who count as 3). The total number in the proportion is 3 + 1 =4. You are given a total, but that is both boys and girls. That's why you need the 4.

3/4 = x / 236 Cross multiply

4x = 3 * 236

4x = 708 Divide by 4

x = 708/4

x = 177

There are 177 boys at the school and 236 - 177 = 59 girls.

Pavel [41]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

There are 1757600 possibilities.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In a certain state, fishing licenses are in the form of LLL NN

L stands for a letter of the alphabet (a to z)

N stands for a one-digit number from 0 to 9.

Now, for the series LLL, 3 alphabets are placed that can be any from a to z. This means at each place, 26 letters can be placed.

Similarly, for NN, 2 numbers are placed that can be any, between 0 and 9. At each place 0 to 9 can be placed.

Hence, the total possible outcomes will be :

$26\times26\times26\times10\times10$ =1757600

Therefore the answer is 1757600 possibilities.
