Length of deck is 40 feet

<h3><u><em>Solution:</em></u></h3>

Sam wants the deck to have an overall perimeter of 60 feet

Perimeter of rectangular deck = 60 feet

Let "L" be the length of rectangle and "W" be the width of rectangle

Given that plans for a rectangular deck call for the width to be 10 feet less than the length

Width = length - 10

W = L - 10  ------ eqn 1

<em><u>The perimeter of rectangle is given as:</u></em>

perimeter of rectangle = 2(length + width)

Substituting the known values we get,

60 = 2(L + L - 10)

60 = 2(2L - 10)

60 = 4L - 20

80 = 4L

L = 20

Thus the length of deck is 20 feet

Is there more to this problem? By saying f(4), you'd be inputting a 4 for every variable x. There is not enough info here to answer the question.

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to use the fact that the big triangle and the small triangle are similar and write the proportions

\frac{125}{10} =\frac{AB}{10}  we took half of the side because of ΔABD and ΔBD..

AB= (125*10)/10=125

is AB =125 then AC is duble AC= 2*125=250
