The width of the path when the length of the outer rectangle is 26+2x and width of it is 18+2x is 4 meters.

<h3>What is the area of a rectangle?</h3>

Area of a rectangle is the product of the length of the rectangle and the width of the rectangle. It can be given as,

A=a×b

Here, (a)is the length of the rectangle and (b) is the width of the rectangle

The length of the outer rectangle is 26+2x and width of it is 18+2x. The area of this rectangle is 884² m. Thus,

A=a×b

884=(26+2x)×(18+2x)

884=468+52x+36x+4x²

4x²+88x-416=0

Divide both side with 4,

x²+22x-104=0

x²+26x-4x-104=0

x(x+26)-4(x+26)=0

(x+26)(x-4)=0

x=-26,4

Take the positive value 4. The width of the path is equal to x which is 4 meters.

Hence, the width of the path when the length of the outer rectangle is 26+2x and width of it is 18+2x is 4 meters.

She should go with service 2 because it is, cheaper. Service 1 cost $107.52, but service 2 cost only $105.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost now+increase$=new cost

(Part=percent*whole)

Increase=percent increase*cost now

i=12%*$96

i=0.12*96=$11.52

$96+11.52=107.52

High grade steel consists of 85% iron and 15% magnese. Low grade steel consists of 67% iron and 33% mag ese. NASA orders 500 ton
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

361\dfrac{1}{9} tons of high steel and 138\dfrac{8}{9} tons of low steel

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of tons of high grade steel and y be the number of tons ow low grade steel needed.

In x tons of high grade steel there are

0.85x tons of iron

0.15x tons of magnese

In y tons of low grade steel there are

0.67y tons of iron

0.33y tons of magnese

NASA orders 500 tons of steel, so

x+y=500

and specifies that it must be in the proportion 80% iron and 20% magnese, so

0.85x+0.67y=500\cdot 0.8\\ \\0.85x+0.67y=400

From the first equation,

x=500-y

Substitute it into the second equation:

0.85(500-y)+0.67y=400\\ \\425-0.85y+0.67y=400\\ \\-0.18y=-25\\ \\y=\dfrac{2,500}{18}=138\dfrac{8}{9}\ tons\\ \\x=361\dfrac{1}{9}\ tons

SUPER HARD QUESTION (I POSTED THE DIAGRAM) In the diagram of.....
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Since m∠JOK is 1/5th of the measure of the full circle (we know this because 72° is 1/5th of 360° and 360° is the measure of the whole circle), we know that the measure of minor arc JK will be 1/5th of the circumference of the circle. C = 2πr and we know that r = 5 so the circumference is 10π. 1/5th of that is 2π.
