Question 3 (Essay Worth 10 points) 2 (06.03 MC) Use the chart below to answer the questions: Country Population Area (1997 estimate) (square km) Indonesia 203,479,000 1,904,569 Denmark 5,248,000 42,077 Ghana 18,339,000 237,533 Which of these countries has the greatest population density? Which has the least? Provide an explanation and proof for your answer to receive full credit.​

Denmark has the highest population density with 124.724 people per square km and Ghana has the least population density with 77.206 people per square km. 

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the population density we have to do the population/Area. We have to do this for each country. 

Indonesia= 203,479,000/1,904,569= (around) 106.837 people per square km.

Denmark= 5,248,000/42,077=(around) 124.724 people per square km.

Ghana=18,339,000/237,533=(around) 77.206 people per square km.

We can see that Denmark has the highest number and Ghana has the lowest number.

perimeter of the first rectangular board is 9 feet.

step-by-step explanation:

let p = perimeter of first board.

l = length of first board

w = width of first board

length of first board = 2 * width of first board - 3

l = 2w - 3

perimeter of first board = 2l + 2w

since l = 2w-3, then

p = 2*(2w-3) + 2w which equals 4w-6 + 2w which equals 6w-6

length and width of the second board are reciprocals of corresponding length and width of the first board.

length of second board = 1/(2w-3)

width of second board = 1/w

perimeter of second board is 1/5th perimeter of the first board.

perimeter of second board = p/5

perimeter of the second board = (2/(2w-3) + 2/w)

since the perimeter of the first board is 5 times the perimeter of the second board, this means that:

6w-6 = 5*(2/(2w-3) + 2/w)

which is the same as:

6w-6 = (10/(2w-3) + 10/w)

if we multiply both sides of this equation by (2w-3), we get:

(6w-6)*(2w-3) = 10 + 10*(2w-3)/w

if we multiply both sides of this equation by w, we get:

(6w-6)*(2w-3)*w = 10*w + 10*(2w-3)

we can simplify this to become:

(6w-6)*(2w-3)*w = 10w + 20w - 30

which becomes:

(6w-6)*(2w-3)*w = 30w-30

if we divide both sides of this equation by (6w-6), we get:

(2w-3)*w = (30w-30)/(6w-6)

which becomes:

(2w-3)*w = 5

this can be simplified to:

2w^2 - 3w = 5

subtract 5 from both sides of this equation to get:

2w^2 - 3w - 5 = 0

which can be factored into:

(2w-5)*(w+1) = 0

which makes:

w = 5/2

or

w = -1.

w can't be negative so the only possible answer is w = 5/2.

if w = 5/2, then

p = 2w-3 = 5-3 = 2

we have:

p = 2

w = 5/2

p = 2l + 2w gets p = 4 + 5 = 9

the perimeter of the first board is 9 feet.

since the perimeter of the second board is 1/5 the perimeter of the first board, the perimeter of the second board is 9/5.

to see if that's correct, we substitute known values for l and w into the second board.

the length of the second board is 1/l.

this becomes 1/2.

the width of the second board is 1/w

this bgecomes 1/(5/2) = (2/5)

let l2 = length of second board.

let w2 = width of second board.

l2 = (1/2)

w2 = (2/5)

let p2= perimeter of second board.

then p2 = 9/5

since p2 = 2*l2 + 2*w2, we should get p2 = 9/5 using the dimensions of l2 and w2.

2 * l2 = 2 * (1/2) = 1

2 * w2 = 2 * (2/5) = 4/5

1 is the same as 5/5

5/5 + 4/5 = 9/5

p2 checks out good.

the dimensions as given are good.

answer to the problem is:

perimeter of the first rectangular board is 9 feet.
