Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

Solving for time:

time = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{speed}} \)
time = \( \frac{240mi}{60mph} \)
4 hours

The area of a rectangle is width (w) x height (h). In this problem we know that the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide so h = 2w. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2h and we know that the perimeter of this rectangle is 12 meters so the equation becomes: 2w + 2h = 12.

Putting these two equations together and solving for width (w):

2w + 2h = 12
w + h = \( \frac{12}{2} \)
w + h = 6
w = 6 - h

From the question we know that h = 2w so substituting 2w for h gives us:

w = 6 - 2w
3w = 6
w = \( \frac{6}{3} \)
w = 2

Since h = 2w that makes h = (2 x 2) = 4 and the area = h x w = 2 x 4 = 8 m²

Calculate the number of vans needed by dividing the number of people that need transported by the capacity of one van:

vans = \( \frac{87}{12} \) = 7\(\frac{1}{4}\)

So, it will take 7 full vans and one partially full van to transport the entire team making a total of 8 vans.

You have 7 out of the total of 100 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{7}{100} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{7 \times 100}{100} \) = \( \frac{700}{100} \) = 7% chance to win the raffle.

There are 4 2-passenger taxis available so that's 4 x 2 = 8 total seats. There are 12 people needing transportation leaving 12 - 8 = 4 who will have to find other transportation.
