Step-by-step explanation:
this is the anwser,just round to whatever you need to
1. Let's call:
x: the width of the walkway.
b: 2x+16 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
h: 2x+32 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
A: 924 ft^2 ( the area of the pool of including the walkway).
2. The area of a rectangle is:
A=(b)(h)
b: the base of the rectangle (2x+16)
a: the height of the rectangle (2x+32)
3. Then, we have a quadratic equation:
924=(2x+16)(2x+32)
4x^2+64x+32x+512-924=0
4x^2+96x-412=0
4. We apply the quadratic formula to find the value of "x":
x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
x=3.71
The answer is: The width of the walkway is 3.71 ft
You haven't told me what the question is. But I put the mouse
to my forehead, closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and I could
see it shimmering in my mind's eye. It was quite fuzzy, but I think
the question is
"What score does Andrew need on the next test
in order to raise his average to 72% ?"
The whole experience drew an incredible amount of energy
out of me, and the mouse is a total wreck. So we'll just go ahead
and answer that one. I hope it's the correct question.
The average score on 4 tests is
(1/4) (the sum of all the scores) .
In order for Andrew to have a 72% average on 4 tests,
the sum of the 4 scores must be
(4) x (72%) = 288% .
Out of that total that he needs, he already has
(64% + 69% + 73%) = 206%
on the first three tests.
So in order to average 72% for all 4 tests,
he'll need to score
(288% - 206%) = 82%
on the fourth one.
