Could you help me on these problems? Very much thank you in advance.
12F-26 Farmer Joe has a 5 acre farm that is rectangular with the sides in the ratio 1:1.5 . He want to fence in the farm with T-posts no more than 8ft apart with a T-post at every corner. How many T-posts does he need? Answer: 240 integer (I'm getting a close answer that is like plus or minus 2 the right answer, so how exactly do I get the 240?)
12F-46 A moving object has a kinetic energy proportional to the object's mass also the square of its velocity. Two meteors are 1200ft and 3800 ft across. The larger one moves at 60% the speed of the slower one. What is the ration of their kinetic energy, a number exceeding one? Answer: 11.4
12F-50 For the weird triangles i'm using heron's formula, is this the shortest and most efficient way?
