The library in Geotown has a large room with enough tables and chairs to seat 236 people. Some of the tables are in shape of a hexagon and seat six people each. The rest of the tables are octagonal and seat eight people each. If there are 35 tables in the room, how many are hexagons and how many are octagons?

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

answer:

some responsibilities that come with having a checking account -

1. we have to maintain check register with exactness to avoid checks being returned for insufficient funds which is called bouncing a check.

2. we need to update our check register each time we make a transaction using a convenience card. updating check register will   save   us from   overdrawing of checking account.

3. read the agreement the bank gave you when you signed up for our checking account. this includes all the fees and the minimum balance we need to keep in our account to avoid maintenance charges.  

explanation:

note : -   checking account is a transactional deposit account. we can use it to deposit and withdraw funds. money in a checking account is very liquid. it   can be withdrawn using electronic debits, automated cash machines, or checks among other methods.
