A rectangular piece of paper has an area of 24 square inches. You trim the paper so that it fits into a square frame by trimming 3 inches from the length and 1 inch from the width of the paper. Write and solve an equation to find the side length of the resulting square paper.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Length of the square = 3 inches

Equation:   [tex]l = L - 3[/tex] and [tex]l = W - 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Area of the rectangle = 24

Required

Length of the square when the dimension of the rectangle is trimmed by 3 inches * 1 inches

Represent the dimension on the rectangle by L and W

Such that L represent Length and W, Width

This implies that

[tex]L * W = 24[/tex]

Represent the length of the rectangle by l

Such that

[tex]l = L - 3[/tex] and [tex]l = W - 1[/tex] (When trimmed)

Equate both expressions

[tex]L - 3 = W - 1[/tex]

Add 3 to both sides

[tex]L - 3 + 3 = W - 1 + 3[/tex]

[tex]L = W + 2[/tex]

Next is to list all possible dimensions of the rectangle;

[tex]Area(L,W) = Length * Width[/tex]

[tex]Area(24,1) = 24 * 1 = 24[/tex]

[tex]Area(12,2) = 12 * 2 = 24[/tex]

[tex]Area(8,3) = 8 * 3 = 24[/tex]

[tex]Area(6,4) = 6 * 4 = 24[/tex]

From the list above, the only calculation that fits our solution is

[tex]Area(6,4) = 6 * 4 = 24[/tex]

Such that

[tex]6 = 4 + 2[/tex]

By direct comparison of [tex]6 = 4 + 2[/tex] to [tex]L = W + 2[/tex];

[tex]L = 6[/tex]

[tex]W = 4[/tex]

Recall that

[tex]l = L - 3[/tex] and [tex]l = W - 1[/tex]

Substitute 6 for L and 4 for W

[tex]l = 6 - 3[/tex] and [tex]l = 4 - 1[/tex]

[tex]l = 3[/tex] in both cases

Hence, the length of the square is 3 inches

And the equation is  [tex]l = L - 3[/tex] and [tex]l = W - 1[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \boxed{\sf Length \ of \ leg \ y = 13} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras theorem states that “In a right-angled triangle, the square of the hypotenuse side is equal to the sum of squares of the other two sides”.

[tex] \therefore \\ \sf \implies {84}^{2} + {y}^{2} = {85}^{2} \\ \\ \sf {84}^{2} = 7056 : \\ \sf \implies 7056 + {y}^{2} = {85}^{2} \\ \\ \sf {85}^{2} = 7225 : \\ \sf \implies 7056 + {y}^{2} = 7225 \\ \\ \sf Substract \: 7056 \: from \: both \: sides : \\ \sf \implies (7056 - 7056) + {y}^{2} = 7225 - 7056 \\ \\ \sf 7056 - 7056 = 0 : \\ \sf \implies {y}^{2} = 7225 - 7056 \\ \\ \sf 7225 - 7056 = 169 : \\ \sf \implies {y}^{2} = 169 \\ \\ \sf 169 = {13}^{2} : \\ \sf \implies {y}^{2} = {13}^{2} \\ \\ \sf \implies y = \sqrt{ {13}^{2} } \\ \\ \sf \implies y = {13}^{ \cancel{2} \times \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}} } \\ \\ \sf \implies y = 13 [/tex]

So,

The electromotive force V of an alternating current circuit at time t can be describe by the
following function, where V is volts and t is in seconds. V(t) = 220sin(180πt). How many cycles
will the circuit run through in 1 minute?​

Answers

Answer:

5400 cycles

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the following function:

[tex]V(t)=220sin(180\pi t)[/tex]

where t is in seconds.

In order to find the number of cycles in 1 minute, you first  calculate the frequency of the function, which is given by:

[tex]f=\frac{180\pi}{2\pi}=90s^{-1}[/tex]

The number of cycles is then given by:

[tex]n=ft=(90s^{-1})(60s)=5400\ cycles[/tex]

There are 5400 cycles in 1 minute

origin is the corner of square whose one side is 3 X + 4 Y + 5 = 0 find its area.
options:
a.1
b.2
c.3
d.4

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

a. 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the origin (0, 0) is the corner of the square

The equation of one of the sides = 3·X + 4·Y + 5 = 0

Therefore, we have;

Y = -3/4·X - 5/4

Which gives the slope as -3/4 and the y-intercept as (0, -5/4)

The sloe of the perpendicular side from the origin to the given line is therefore = -(1/(3/4)) = 4/3

The y-intercept of the current particular perpendicular side = 0

The equation is therefore;

y = 4/3·x + 0

The coordinate of the point of intersection of the two sides of the square above is found by equating the two lines to each other as follows;

4/3·x = -3/4·X - 5/4

4/3·x + 3/4·X = -5/4

25/12·X = -5/4

X = -5/4×12/25 = -3/5

Y = 4/3·x = 4/3× (-3/5) =-4/5

The length of a side = √((-3, 5) - 0)² + ((-4, 5) - 0)² = √1 = 1

The area of a square = (Length of side) × (Length of side)

∴ The area of the square = 1 × 1 = 1

The area of the square  = 1.

The real numbers $x$ and $y$ are such that \begin{align*} x + y &= 4, \\ x^2 + y^2 &= 22, \\ x^4 &= y^4 - 176 \sqrt{7}. \end{align*}Compute $x - y.$

Answers

You get everything you need from factoring the last expression:

[tex]x^4-y^4=-176\sqrt7[/tex]

The left side is a difference of squares, and we get another difference of squares upon factoring. We end up with

[tex]x^4-y^4=(x^2-y^2)(x^2+y^2)=(x-y)(x+y)(x^2+y^2)[/tex]

Plug in everything you know and solve for [tex]x-y[/tex]:

[tex]-176\sqrt7=(x-y)\cdot4\cdot22\implies x-y=\boxed{-2\sqrt7}[/tex]

Answer:

-2sqrt(7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

From the third equation, $x^4 - y^4 = -176 \sqrt{7}.$

By difference of squares, we can write

\[x^4 - y^4 = (x^2 + y^2)(x^2 - y^2) = (x^2 + y^2)(x + y)(x - y).\]Then $-176 \sqrt{7} = (22)(4)(x - y),$ so $x - y = \boxed{-2 \sqrt{7}}.$

THE LANDSCAPER IS PLANTING A TREE THAT IS NOW 55 CM TALL. THE TREE WILL GROW 4 CM PER MONTH FOR X MONTHS. THE TREE WILL GROW TO BE AT MOST Y CM TALL. WRITE AN INEQUALITY SHOWING THIS RELATIONSHIP.

Answers

Answer: 55cm + X*4cm < Y.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial height of the tree is 55cm

The tree will grow 4cm per month, for X months.

then the height of the tree is the initial height, plus X times 4cm

H = 55cm + X*4cm

If Y is the maximum height that this tree can grow, then we can write the inequality as:

H < Y.

55cm + X*4cm < Y.

The remaining students do not win a prize. If 200 students play the game at the booth, how much money should the carnival committee expect to pay for prizes for that booth

Answers

Answer:

The expected amount to be paid by the carnival committee for prices would be $366.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Here, we want to calculate the amount of money the carnival committee is expected to pay for the prizes for that booth

From the question, we have 3 categories of prices to be won

To calculate for people that won’t win anything , we simply subtract the percentages of all from 100

That would be 100-32-10-8 = 100-50 = 50%

So now let’s calculate the number of people out of 200 that will win each category based on the percentages

For stuffed toy

32/100 * 200 = 64

Jump rope

10/100 * 200 = 20

For t-shirt

8/100 * 200 = 16

So total price paid for stuffed toy= 3.25 * 64 = $208

For jump rope, we have 1.7 * 20 = $34

For t-shirt , we hav 16 * 7.8 = $124.8

So the total value spent on prices by the committee would be;

124.8 + 34 + 208 = $366.80

xy=12

Hope it helps <3

Answer: C. 12

Explanation:

9/2x = 3y/8
2x • 3y = 8 x 9
2x • 3y = 72
3y = 72/2x = 36/x
y = 36/x • 1/3
y = 36/3x
y = 12/x

Plug y = 12/x in our equation:

9/2x = 3(12/x)/8
9/2x = 36/x/8
2x • 36/x = 9 x 8 (cross multiply)
36x = 72
x = 72/36 = 2

Plug x = 2 in the same to find y

9/2(2) = 3y/8
9/4 = 3y/8
3y x 4 = 72
3y = 72/4 = 18
y = 18/3 = 6

Find the product of x and y

since from the statements we know that x represents the number of minutes he had run, for us to be able to calculate his  distance from the finish line we simply solve the problem mathematically as follows;

x=80-8y

Step-by-step explanation:

from the initial representation we have x+8y=80,

from the preliminary statement we know x to be the number of minutes from the start of the race to the current point Jackson.

so we assume that y in the equation represents the number of distance covered by the x minutes in miles.

that is how we end up with ;

How much more of each ingredient will she need to make 18 portions by following this recipe? Recipe: Serves 6 500 g chicken 600 g peppers 90 g onion 25 g spice mix 12 tortillas

Answers

Answer:

600 g chicken

600 g peppers

120 g onion

15 g spice mix

6 tortillas

Step-by-step explanation:

To make 18 portions, Carly needs to make 3 times the original recipe.

1. Solve for how much of each ingredient is needed.

500 · 3 = 1500 g chicken

600 · 3 = 1800 g peppers

90 · 3 = 270 g onion

25 · 3 = 75 g spice mix

12 · 3 = 36 tortillas

2. Subtract how much of each ingredient Carly already has from how much is needed to find how much more she needs.

1500 - 900 = 600 g chicken

1800 - 1200 = 600 g peppers

270 - 150 = 120 g onion

75 - 60 = 15 g spice mix

36 - 30 = 6 tortillas
