Concept explainers
In the traditional Japanese children’s game janken (or “rock, scissors, paper”), at a given signal, each of two players shows either no fingers (rock), two fingers (scissors), or all five (paper). Rock beats scissors, scissors beats paper, and paper beats rock. In the case of a tie, there is no payoff. In the case of a win, the winner collects 5 yen. (On December 10, 2004, Fox Sports broadcast the 2004 Rock Paper Scissors World Championships. See www.worldrps.com.)

- A vacant lot is being converted into a community garden. The garden and a walkway around its perimeter have an area of 690 square feet. Find the width of the walkway (x) if the garden measures 14 feet wide by 18 feet long. Write answer to 2 decimal places. (Write the number without units). Hint: add 2x to each of the garden dimensions of 14 x 18 feet to get the total area for the length multiplied by width.arrow_forwardSolve x-1 x+2 = 12 3 4 Your Answer: Answerarrow_forwardFind the solutions to the following equation 21x²+5x=6 ○ a) -3/7, 3/2 ☐ b) -2/3, 3/7 ○ c) -7/3, 3/2 ○ d) -2/3, 7/3arrow_forward
