Option A: 156 + 179 + 25 + 25 = $385
Option B: 334 + 15 + 15 = $364
Option B is cheaper. 10% of $364 is $36.40. That is what you would save with the third option.
The initial dimenssions of the park lot are:
length: 140 ft
width: 90 ft
initial area: 140 * 90 = 12,600 ft^2
Area increased 29% = 12,600 * 1.29 = 16,254 ft^2
width of the strips: x
New length: 140 + x
New width: 90 + x
New area: (140+x)(90+x) = 16,254
Solution of the equation:
12600 + 230x + x^2 = 16254
=> x^2 + 230x - 3654 = 0
Use the quadratic formula.
x = {-230 +/- √[ 230^2 - 4*1*(-3654) ]} / 2 =
x = 14.92
The other solution is negative so it is discarded.
Answer: 15 ft
The first is C. r = 4(4/9)
the second one is B. h = 130
the second one is A. k = 7
i’m so sorry, they’re all wrong
What is the question though?? and what are the answer choices??
Equation: 5x² - 3x - 14
= 5x² - 10x + 7x - 14
= 5x(x - 2) 7(x - 2)
= (5x + 7)(x - 2)
In short, Your Answer would be: Option B
Hope this helps!
