Answer:

A. 7.2 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the base is 7.2 centimeters. The area of a rectangle is length*width

The length is unknown but the area is known. To find the length, all we have to do is divide the area from the height.

The working is as follows :

Area = 90 cm²

Height = 12.5 cm

Length = ?

<em>Length</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>Area</em><em> </em><em>÷</em><em> </em><em>Height</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>90</em><em> </em><em>÷</em><em> </em><em>12</em><em>.</em><em>5</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>7.2cm</em>

Becca and Kimberly are running at a constant speed in a marathon. Becca runs at 4.5 miles per hour. Kimberly’s progress is shown
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Part A: Kimberly

Part B:

Becca = 22.5 miles, Kimberly = 25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Given that Becca runs at a constant speed of 4.5 miles per hour, use the table to find the constant speed that Kimberly runs, and compare who runs faster.

Let x = time

y = distance

k = speed = y/x

Equation for each person can be written as: y = kx

Therefore:

✔️Equation for Becca if k = 4.5

y = 4.5x

✔️Find k (speed) of Kimberly using (2, 10):

Speed (k) = y/x

k = 10/2

k = 5 miles per hour

Equation for Kimberly would be:

y = 5x

Comparing their speed, Kimberly runs faster because she covers more miles per hour than Becca does.

Part B:

For Becca, substitute x = 5 into Becca's equation, y = 4.5x

Thus:

y = 4.5*5 = 22.5 miles

For Kimberly, substitute x = 5 into Kimberly's equation, y = 5x

Thus:

y = 5*5 = 25 miles

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar. In the equation√n+5
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

n = 59

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of n is \sqrt{n + 5} - \sqrt{n - 10} = 1 and we have to solve it for n.

\sqrt{n + 5} - \sqrt{n - 10} = 1 ........... (1)

⇒ \frac{(n + 5) - (n - 10)}{\sqrt{n + 5} + \sqrt{n - 10}} = 1  

{Rationalizing the numerator}

⇒ \sqrt{n + 5} + \sqrt{n - 10} = 15 .............. (2)

Now, adding (1) and (2) we get

2\sqrt{n + 5} = 16

⇒ n + 5 = 64 {Squaring both sides}

⇒ n = 59 (Answer)
