We know that
Perimeter=2AB+2AD=34 in-----> AB+AD=17-----> AB=17-AD-----> equation 1

MA=MD
MA²=AB²+(AD/2)²
for the triangle AMD
AD²=[MA²+MD²]----> AD²=2*[MA²]----> AD²=2*[AB²+(AD/2)²]---> equation 2

I substitute 1 in 2

AD²=2*[(17-AD)²+(AD/2)²]----> AD²=2*[289-34AD+AD²+0.25AD²]

AD²=578-68AD+2.50AD²--------> 1.50AD²-68AD+578

1.50AD²-68AD+578=0

 using a graph tool to solve the quadratic equation

see the attached figure

AD1=11.33 in

AD2=34 in----------is not solution because (AB+AD=17)

Solution is AD=11.33 in

AB=17-11.33--------> 17-11.33-----> AB=5.67 in

 the answer is

AD=11.33 in

<span>AB=5.67 in</span>

it takes an air pump 4.0 minutes to fill a twin sized air mattress (39 by 8.75 by 75 inches). How long will it take to fill a qu
Ivahew [28]

Volume of twin sized mattress =

39* 8.75* 75 = 25593.35 cubic inch

Volume of queen sized mattress =

60* 8.75* 80 = 42000 cubic inch

To fill 25593.35 cubic inch it takes 4 minutes

To fill 1 cubic inch it will take = \frac{4}{25593.35} minutes

So to fill 42000 cubic inch it will take = \frac{4}{25593.35} * 42000

= 6.56 minutes.

How do you find an exponential function given the points are (0,13) and (2,325)
slava [35]

Answer:

y = 13(5)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential function has the form

y = a b^{x}

To find a and b use the given points

Using (0, 13), then

13 = a b^{0} , since b^{0} = 1, then

a = 13, thus

y = 13 b^{x}

using (2, 325) , then

325 = 13 b² ( divide both sides by 13 )

25 = b² ( take the square root of both sides )

5 = b

y = 13 × 5^{x} ← is the exponential function
