Answer:
14 ways in all.
Step-by-step explanation:
A. If you use 2 quarters, you have to make the remaining 15� with either no
dimes or 1 dime and the rest in nickels.
That's 2 ways.
B. If you use 1 quarter, you have to make the remaining 40� with either no
dimes, 1 dime, 2 dimes, 3 dimes or 4 dimes and the rest, if any, in nickels.
That's 5 more ways.
C. If you don't use any quarters, you have to make the entire 65� with either
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 dimes and the rest in nickels.
That's 7 more ways. 2+5+7 = 14 ways in all.

Answer:
96 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonal through the park cuts the rectangle into two right triangles. The Pythagorean theorem tells you the relationship between the sides of a right triangle and its hypotenuse: the sum of the squares of the sides is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.
The diagonal is the hypotenuse, so we have ...
100² = 28² + w²
w = √(10000 -784) = 96
The width of the park is 96 yards.

<em>Additional comment</em>
The integer side lengths of a right triangle form what is called a "Pythagorean triple." One of the most often seen of these is (3, 4, 5). Other commonly seen Pythagorean triples are (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17).
You may notice that the numbers here are those of the (7, 24, 25) Pythagorean triple, multiplied by 4. If you recognize the given lengths as having the ratio 28:100 = 7:25, you have the clue you need to determine the answer simply from your knowledge of Pythagorean triples.
