A rectangular parking lot has a length that is 9 yards greater than the width. The area of the parking lot is 360 square yards. Find the length and the width.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The width is 15 yards and the length is 24 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the width of the parking lot in yards

Let the length of the parking lost be (x + 9) as the length is 9 yards greater than the width

So, area = width * length

i.e. 360 = x(x + 9)

360 = x2 + 9x

x2 + 9x - 360 = 0

x2 + 24x - 15x - 360 = 0

x(x + 24) - 15(x + 24) = 0

(x + 24)(x - 15) = 0

Either x = -24 or, x = 15

But as width can not be negative, so we can not have, x = -24

So, we have, x = 15

Therefore, (x + 9) = (15 + 9) = 24

So, we have the following answers.

Width : 15 yards

Length : 24 yards

The roof of a tower in a castle is shaped like a cone. The height of the roof is 30 ft, and the radius of the base is 15 ft. What is the area of the roof? What is the lateral area of the roof?

Answers

Answer:

The area of the roof: ≈2287.44 ft^2, the lateral area of the roof:≈1580.58 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the roof is computed by the equation of the area of a cone:
A = πr(r + [tex]\sqrt{h^{2}+r^(2) }[/tex])
(r: radius, h: height, πr^2 is the area of the base of the cone, πr[tex]\sqrt{h^{2}+r^(2) }[/tex] is the lateral area of the cone). So:

A = [tex]15\pi (15 + \sqrt{30^{2} +15^{2} } )[/tex] ≈ 2287.44 ft^2.

As I stated earlier, the lateral area of the roof can be computed:

A[tex]L[/tex]=[tex]15\pi \sqrt{30^{2} +15^{2} }[/tex] ≈ 1580.58 ft^2.

Paved area:-

#b

Let's see

205-7d=1567d=205-1567d=49d=7days

Answer:

(a)  121 miles

(b)  7 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given function:

[tex]\sf L(d)=205-7d[/tex]

Question (a)

When d = 12:

[tex]\sf \implies L(12)=205-7(12)[/tex]

                [tex]\sf =205-84[/tex]

                [tex]\sf =121 \ miles[/tex]

Therefore, the crew has 121 miles left to pave after 12 days.

Question (b)

When L(d) = 156

[tex]\sf \implies 156=205-7d[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 7d=205-156[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 7d=49[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies d=\pm\sqrt{49}[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies d=\pm7[/tex]

As distance is positive, [tex]\sf d=7[/tex] only

Therefore, the crew has been paving the the road for 7 days.

Suppose you budgeted $2800 for fuel expenses for the year. How many miles could you drive if gas were $2.70 per gallon and your vehicle averaged 28 mi/gal?

Answers

Answer:

29037.036 miles

Step-by-step explanation

There are two possible ways to solve this problem.

The first option starts with the $2800 dollars for the years. You first want to divide this by $2.70, because it will give you the amount of gallons of gas you can buy with that money.

2800/2.70 = 1037.037

This means you can buy 1037.037 gallons of gas in the year. Now you need to convert this to miles by multiplying by the amount of miles per gallon.

1037.037 x 28 = 29037.036 gallons

The second way to look at this is dimensional analysis. If you have learned this, then continue on reading this, but if you haven't I might only confuse you. I only suggest this because it can make it a little easier.

For the dimensional analysis, you need to start with what you are given and move to what you need to know, so you will start with the $2800 dollars and move to gallons. $2.70 per gallon and 28 miles per gallon are your conversion factors.

Set it up like this:

[tex]2800 dollars * \frac{1 gallon}{2.70 dollars} * \frac{28 miles}{1 gallon} = 29037.036 miles[/tex]

This allows the equation to be more organized, and you can check your work by canceling the units.

Hope this helps.

That we can find by finding where does the line end in the right side. We can see it ends between 56 and 60, and if we calculate, then we can find out that the bar in the middle represents 58, so hence, her slowest timing for her swim time is 58 seconds.

So hence, your answer is 58 seconds!

Find the exact length of side a

select a,b,c or d from the pictures, please help!

Answers

Answer:

D. 2√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is right because the side adjacent to 60° angle is half the length of the hypotenuse.

Side a = BC is opposite to ange A, its measure is:

BC/AC = √3BC = AC√3BC = 2√3

Correct choice is D

Answer:

[tex]a=2\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Side a is the side opposite angle A.  

Side b is the side opposite angle B.  

Side c is the side opposite angle C.  

We have been given the lengths of 2 sides and the included angle.

Therefore, to find side a use the cosine rule.

Cosine rule

  [tex]a^2=b^2+c^2-2bc \cos A[/tex]

where:

a, b and c are the sidesA is the angle opposite side a

From inspection of the triangle:

side b = 2side c = 4angle A = 60°

Substitute the given values into the formula and solve for a:

[tex]\implies a^2=b^2+c^2-2bc \cos A[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2=2^2+4^2-2(2)(4) \cos 60^{\circ}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2=4+16-16\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2=4+16-8[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2=12[/tex]

[tex]\implies a=\sqrt{12}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a=\sqrt{4 \cdot 3}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a=\sqrt{4}\sqrt{3}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a=2\sqrt{3}[/tex]

Therefore, the exact length of side a is 2√3.

Why? Well, the the slope formula is rise/run. As you can see, if you look the y-coordinate is consistently going down (negative) by two, and the x-coordinate it is going right by 1 every time and makes a triangle shape. You can actually draw it if you want to. And the -2 would be the y-intercept. (Exactly what it means, where the line means the y-axis)
