Answer:
Step-by-step ex$ in 6 in 14 dt lenght times width times hight planation:
A circular pool with a diameter of 18 ft will have a uniform
4 ft concrete walkway poured around it. If the concrete cost $4.25 a square
foot, how much will it cost for the concrete?
This can be solve be solving the area of walkway
Area of walkway is equal to = (pi)( 9 ft +4) ^2– (pi)(9ft)^2
= 276.46 sq ft
Cost = 276.46 sq ft * ($4.25 a square foot) = $1174.70
1 1/4 because you must make improper fractions
Just plug in one of the other (doesn't matter which one) so it will look like
-3x+6=5x+38
or
5x+38=-3x+6 (it's the same thing as the first one)
Then you solve for x and you substitute that value so you can get y.
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
Side 1 = 8, side 2=6, side 3=3 1/3 or 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion comparing the sides of the original triangle to the new triangle.
The original triangle has sides 12, 9, and 5. The new triangle has sides 8, e, and f (use whatever letters you like, it doesn't matter, but for me, e is the side with the middle length and f is the side with the shortest length.
We can write 3 ratios, with the length of the new triangle over the length of the old triangle.
8/12 e/9 f/5
To figure out e and f, put each ratio equal to 8/12.
<u>8 </u> = <u>e</u> Then multiply both sides of the equation by 9 and get <u>72 </u> = e, 6=e.
12 9 12
<u>8 </u> = <u>f </u> Then multiply both sides of the equation by 9 and get <u>40 </u> = f, <u>10</u>=f.
12 5 12 3
10/3 can be rewritten as 3 1/3.
