A rectangle has a base that is three feet longer than its height. The area of the rectangle is 54 square feet. What are the dimensions of the rectangle?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

h=6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: 1. The base of a rectangle is three feet longer than its height.

2.Are of the rectangle=54 square meters

Let us say the rectangle has height h and base(breadth) b.

Since, the base of the rectangle is three feet longer than the height, we have b=h+3.

Also, Area of the Rectangle= hb

therefore, 54=h(h+3)

54= h2+ 3h

h2+3h-54=0 (Subtract 54 from both the sides)

To find the value of h we have to solve the quadratic equation.

[We have the equation in the form ax2+bx+c=0, to factorise the equation-

Step1. Find two numbers such that their multiplication is equal to ac and their addition is equal to b.

Step2. Replace b with these numbers.

Step3. Simplify the equation]

So, h2+3h-54=0

h2+9h-6h-54=0

h(h+9)-6(h+9)=0

(h+9)(h-6)=0

Which gives-

h= -9 or h= 6

As h is the height of the rectangle, h can not be -9.

so h=6 feet

and b=h+3=9 feet

So the dimensions of the rectangle are 6 feet for the height and 9 feet for the base.

Answer:

C. x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

By Pythagoras Theorem:

[tex] \bigg( \frac{x}{2} \bigg)^{2} = {( \sqrt{74} )}^{2} - {7}^{2} \\ \\ \frac{ {x}^{2} }{4} = 74 - 49 \\ \\ \frac{ {x}^{2} }{4} = 25 \\ \\ {x}^{2} = 25 \times 4 \\ \\ {x}^{2} = 100 \\ \\ x = \sqrt{100} \\ \\ x = 10[/tex]

Answer:

C. x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem.

(x/2)² = (√74)² - 7²(x/2)² = 25x/2 = √25x/2 = 5x = 10

A child has a box of colored building blocks. He will choose one block without looking. The odds against choosing a blue block are 13/4. What is the probability of choosing a blue block?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "0.2352".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The chance of selecting a odds blue block [tex]= \frac{13}{4}[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{\text{Amount of unfavourable blue block evets} \ (13)}{\text{Amount of unfavourable blue block evets} \ (4)}[/tex]

total number of events are 13+4= 17

Calculating the probability of choosing the blue block  

[tex]=\frac{\text{Amount of unfavourable blue block evets} }{\text{Amount of unfavourable blue block evets} } \\\\ = \frac{4}{17} \\\\ =0.2352[/tex]

Find two integers whose sum is -20 and product is 99

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let the integers be x and y

x+y=-20

y=-20-x

xy=99

x(-20-x)=99

-20x-x²=99

x²+20x+99=0

x²+11x+9x+99=0

x(x+11)+9(x+11)=0

(x+11)(x+9)=0

x=-11,-9

when x=-11

-11+y=-20

y=-20=11=-9

when x=-9

-9+y=-20

y=-20+9=-11

so integers  are -11,-9

Use substitution to solve the following system of equations.
x + 4y = 8
2x - 5y = 29
I

Answers

Answer:

(12, - 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x + 4y = 8 → (1)

2x - 5y = 29 → (2)

Rearrange (1), expressing x in terms of y by subtracting 4y from both sides

x = 8 - 4y → (3)

Substitute x = 8 - 4y into (2)

2(8 - 4y) - 5y = 29 ← distribute and simplify left side

16 - 8y - 5y = 29

16 - 13y = 29 ( subtract 16 from both sides )

- 13y = 13 ( divide both sides by - 13 )

y = - 1

Substitute y = - 1 into (3) for corresponding value of x

x = 8 - 4(- 1) = 8 + 4 = 12

solution is (12, - 1 )

[tex]x = 8 - 4y \: \: eqn \: 1[/tex]

now in eqn 2

[tex]2(8 - 4y) - 5y = 29[/tex]

[tex]16 - 8y - 5y = 29[/tex]

[tex]16 - 13y = 29[/tex]

[tex]16 - 29 = 13y[/tex]

[tex]13 = 13y[/tex]

[tex] \frac{13}{13} = y[/tex]

[tex]y = 1[/tex]

Now in eqn 1

[tex]x = 8 - 4y[/tex]

[tex]x = 8 - 4 \times 1[/tex]

[tex]x = 8 - 4[/tex]

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

therefore x=4 & y=1 answer

Calculate the unknown sides and angles of the triangle ABC given.
Given the final answer correct to three significant figures.
C= 25.7° , b= 3.5cm, a = 6cm​

Answers

Answer:See below

Step-by-step explanation:

to understand thisyou need to know about:law of sinelaw of cosinePEMDASlet's solve:

there are 3 ways to solve SAS triangle

use The Law of Cosines to calculate the unknown side,then use The Law of Sines to find the smaller of the other two anglesand then use the three angles add to 180° to find the last angle.

first figure out [tex]\angle C [/tex]

to do so we will use the formula of law of cosine of C angle

[tex] {c}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} - 2ab.\cos(C) [/tex]

substitute the given values of a,b and [tex]\angle C[/tex]

[tex] \sf{c}^{2} = {6 }^{2} + {3.5}^{2} - 2.6.(3.5). \cos( {25.7}^{ \circ} ) [/tex]

simplify squares:

[tex]c^{2}=36+12.25-42.\cos(25.7^{\circ})[/tex]

simplify addition:

[tex]c^{2}=48.25-42.\cos(25.7^{\circ})[/tex]

square root both sides

[tex] \sf \: \sqrt{ {c}^{2} } = \sqrt{ 48.25-42. \cos(25.7^{\circ})}[/tex]

simplify:

therefore

[tex]\bold{c=3.23}[/tex]

use law of sine to figure out angle A

[tex] \dfrac{6}{\sin( \angle \: A) } = \dfrac{3.23}{\sin(25.7)} [/tex]

therefore

[tex]\bold{\angle A=53.66°}[/tex](use calculater to simplify it)

therefore

[tex]\angle B\: is\: 180^{o}-25.70^{o}-53.66^{o}[/tex]

[tex]\bold{= 100.64}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:  

You have all the information you need to find the area of the circle and then subtracting that from 77 you'll have the area of the rectangle and will be able to figure out the length and height by looking at the answer options.

So the area of a triangle is 1/2(b x h) or (b x h)/2 so the base is 6 and the height is 9 so the area is 54/2 which equals 27. 77 - 27 = 50 so the area of the rectangle is 50. With the answer options provided I can see that the height of the rectangle is 5 and the length is 10.

The ratio of squirrels to pigeons in the park is 15 to 125. Which statement describes this relationship?

Answers

Answer: A. There are 3 squirrels for every 25 pigeons in the park

Step-by-step explanation:

The options include:

A) There are 3 squirrels for every 25 pigeons in the park.

B) There are 3 squirrels for every 5 pigeons in the park.

C) There are 5 squirrels for every 3 pigeons in the park.

D) There are 25 squirrels for every 3 pigeons in the park.

Since the ratio of squirrels to pigeons in the park is 15 to 125. The common factor we have here is 5. We can then divide the figures given by 5. This will be:

= 15/125 = (15/5)/(125/5) = 3/25

This mean that for every 3 squirrels, there are 25 pigeons in the park.

Therefore, the correct answer is A.
