A rectangular playground has an area of 180 square yards. The length of the playground is 3 yards longer than the width. Find the length of the playground.
A)15 yards
B)18 yards
C)12 yards
D)13 yards

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The length is 15 yards so the answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

If  the length is 3 more than the width  the we will represent it by the equation L = w+3    where w is the width and to find the area of a rectangle, we need to multiply the length by the width. so the length is w+3 and the width is w so

w(w+3) = 180   solve for the w

w^2 + 3w = 180     subtract 180 from both sides

w^2 + 3w -180 = 0    find two numbers that their product is -180 and add to 3.

  the number 12 and -15 works out because -12*15= -180  and -15+ 12 =3

We will now have a new quadratic equation as

w^2 - 12w + 15w - 180 = 0  factor by grouping

w(w-12) 15(w-12)= 0     factor out w-12

(w-12)(w+15) = 0    set them both equal  zero.

w -12 = 0      or  w+15= 0  

w =  12      or  w = -15

Since we know that -15 can't represent a distance, then 12 is the width .  

So if we are to find the length and it gives us the information that the length is 3 yards more that the width then we will add 3 to the width to equal the length.

L= 12 +3

L = 15

Answer 2

The length of the rectangular playground is 15 yards. The correct answer would be an option (A).

What is the area of the rectangle?

The area of a rectangle is defined as the product of the length and width.

The area of a rectangle = L × W

Where W is the width of the rectangle and L is the length of the rectangle

Since the length is 3 more than the width

So, we will represent it by the equation L = W+3  ...(i)

A rectangular playground has an area of 180 square yards

So, L × W = 180

Substitute the value of equation (i), and we get

W(W+3) = 180

W² + 3W = 180

W² + 3W -180 = 0  ...(i)

Solving the above quadratic equation, we get the values of W :

W = 12 and W = -15

Take positive value because dimensions can't be negative.

Substitute the value of W = 12 in equation (i), and we get

L = 12 + 3 = 15

Therefore, the length of the playground is 15 yards.

Which equation and solution shows the cost of their monthly Internet service before the credit? 3 (x + 5.50) = 111.75; the monthly Internet service is $31.75 3 (x minus 5.50) = 111.75; the monthly Internet service is $42.75 One-third (x minus 5.50) = 111.75; the monthly Internet service is $42.75 One-third (x + 5.50) = 111.75; the monthly Internet service is $31.75

Answers

Answer: 3(x minus 5.50) = 111.75; the monthly Internet service is $42.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Total amount spent on internet for 3 months = $111.75

Monthly credit received on bill = $5.50

Monthly Credit of $5.50 means $5.50 is deducted from the amount being paid on thir bill monthly.

Assume their monthly internet service fee = x

The amount paid before the credit deduction each month:

Amount paid - credit

(x - $5.50)

For 3 months :

3 × (x - $5.50) = $117.75

3(x - $5.50) = $117.75

Monthly fee paid before credit deduction:

3(x - $5.50) = $117.75

3x - $16.50 = $117.75

3x = $117.75 + $16.50

3x = $128.25

x = $128.25 / 3

x = $42.75

Which choice shows the coordinates of B' if the trapezoid is reflected across the x-axis? On a coordinate plane, trapezoid A B C D has points (2, 2), (7, 2), (5, 1), (3, 1). (–7, 2) (2, –7) (7, –2) (–2, 7)

Answers

Answer:

(7, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The trapezoid A B C D has points (2, 2), (7, 2), (5, 1), (3, 1).

Transformation of a point is the change in location from an original position to a new position. If a shape is transformed, all its points are also transformed. A transformation can either be a rotation, translation, reflection or dilation.

If a point O(x,y) is reflected across the y axis, the new coordinate of the point is at O'(x, -y), i.e. the x coordinate does not change, but the y coordinate is negated.

Since in trapezoid ABCD, the coordinate of point B is (7, 2). The trapezoid is  reflected across the x-axis, therefore the new coordinate of B' is at (7, -2)

a) how much is each monthly payment
b) how much interest is jeanie paying?

Answers

Answer:

in one month : 13676.57/12=1139.71

the interest on 100000 is: 205148.48-100000=105148.48

Step-by-step explanation:

A=P(1+r)^t   (p is the mortgage, t is the time and r is the rate)

p=100000,t=15*12 month,r=4.8%( or 0.048)

A=100000(1+0.048/12)^(12*15)

A=205148.48 (the number rounded to the nearest hundredth)

205128.48 is the amount she has to pay it after 15 years

in one year : 205128.48/15=13676.57 ( rounded to nearest hundredth)

in one month : 13676.57/12=1139.71

A lake has a small patch of lily pads and every day the patch grows to double its size. It takes 32 days for the patch to cover the lake – how long would it take the patch to cover half the lake?

Answers

Answer:

It took 31 days for the patch to cover half the lake

Step-by-step explanation:

The patch grows to double its size everyday

the patch completely covers the lake in 32 days

Since the patch doubles itself everyday, this means that the previous day before the 32nd day, the lake was just half covered.

Therefore, the the patch covered half the lake on the 31st day, i.e it took 31 days for the patch to cover half the lake

A car travels 120m along a straight road that is inclined at 8° to the horizontal. Calculate the vertical distance through which the car rises. (Sin 8°= 0.1392)

Answers

Answer:

16.704m

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the above question, we are going to use the Trigonometric function of Sine.

sin θ = Opposite side/Hypotenuse

Where are given θ = 8°

Sin 8° = 0.1392

In the question, we are told that ,

A car travels 120m along a straight road that is inclined at 8° to the horizontal, hence,

Hypotenuse = 120m

We are asked to calculate the vertical distance through which the car rises hence,

Opposite side = vertical distance.

Therefore,

Sin 8° = Opposite/ 120m

Opposite = Sin 8° × 120m

Opposite = 0.1392 × 120m

Opposite = 16.704m

Therefore, the vertical distance through which the car rises is 16.704m

Find the value of x in the triangle
shown below.

X

Answers

Answer:

x = 28 degrees. 180 degrees in a triangle, 180-85-67=28

Answer:

28 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

The three angles given are: x, 85, and 67.

Therefore, these three angles must add to 180.

x+85+67=180

Combine like terms on the left. Add 85 and 67.

x+ (85+67)=180

x+152=180

We want to find x. We need to get x by itself. 152 is being added to x. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 152 from both sides.

x+152-152=180-152

x=180-152

x=28

x is 28 degrees.

Answers

Answer:

both are at the same distance

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Austin and Devyn both have 1/3 of the way left on their way to school. They both also have walked the same amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Austin has to walk to his school, which could be said as 3/3 and Austin has already walked 2/3. Then if we conduct the equation 3/3-2/3=x. x=1/3. Now Devyn has already walked 4/6 of the way to school. If she has to walk a total of 6/6, then we can again make an equation 6/6-4/6=2/6. Now if we take the distance that they both have left to their school, its 1/3 and 2/6. These are both equavalent fractions because if you scale up 1/3, it equals to 2/6. Since they both have an equal amount of distance to travel, that must mean that they both have covered the same amount of distance already. We can double check to be sure. 2/3 *2/2=4/6. The reason we used 2/2 is because4/2=2 and 6/3=2.

Alonso went to the market with $55 to buy eggs and sugar. He knows he needs a package of 12 eggs that costs $2.75. After getting the eggs, he wants to buy as much sugar as he can with his remaining money. The sugar he likes comes in boxes that each cost $11.50 Write an inequality. Also, after getting the eggs, how many boxes of sugar can Alonso afford? Thanks.

Answers

Answer:

1) The inequality is $55 ≥ $11.50 × S + $2.75

2) Alonso can afford 4 boxes of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The total amount with Alonso = $55

The amount of eggs Alonso needs = 12 eggs

The costs of the pack of 12 eggs = $2.75

The number of packs of eggs Alonso buys = 1

The cost of each box of sugar =  $11.50

Let the number of boxes of sugar Alonso buys = S

Given that the total amount of money with Alonso is $55, then the inequality will be such that $55 will be equal to or larger than the expression for items bought

Therefore, the inequality is given as follows;

$55 ≥ $11.50 × S + $2.75

2) To find out how many boxes of sugar Alonso can afford, we have;

$55 ≥ $11.50 × S + $2.75

$55 - $2.75≥ $11.50 × S

$52.25 ≥ $11.50 × S

∴ S ≤ $52.25/$11.50 = 4.54

S ≤ 4.54 boxes of sugar

As the sugar comes in whole boxes, Alonso can therefore afford only 4 whole boxes of sugar.

Alonso can afford to buy 4 boxes of sugar.

An inequality to represent how many boxes of sugar can Alonso afford is 55 ≥ 2.75 + 11.50s

Given:

Amount with Alonso = $55

Package of 12 eggs = $2.75

Cost of each box of sugar = $11.50

let

s = number of boxes of sugar Alonso can afford

The inequality:

55 ≥ 2.75 + 11.50s

solve for s

55 - 2.75 ≥ 11.50s

52.25 ≥ 11.50s

divide both sides by 11.50

52.25 / 11.50 ≥ s

4.5434782608695 ≥ s

Alonso can only buy a whole box of sugar

Therefore, the number of boxes of sugar Alonso can afford is 4 boxes

Then you would take 10% of $18 for the sales tax. (18 multiplied by .1). You would get $1.80 towards sales tax. you would then add $1.80 to $18 and get $19.80.

Simplify this problem. |3r−15| if r<5

Answers

Answer:

We have the problem:

|3r−15| if r<5

First we see the equality, if r = 5 we have:

I3r - 15I = I3*5 - 15I = I0I = 0.

Then the only restriction that we have is:

I3r - 15I > 0.

now, we could simplify it a bit further:

if r < 5, then the thing inside the absolute value will always be negative:

Then we can write:

I3*r - 15I = -(3*r -15) > 0

multiplying by -1 in both sides

(3r - 15) < 0.

if we keep simplifying this, we will get our initial restriction:

3r - 15 < 0

3r < 15

r < 15/3 = 5

r < 5
