Answer:

A = 18 and a = 3/2

A = 1/2ab

18 = 1/2 x 3/2 x b

18 = 3/4 x b

6 = b/4

Therefore b = 24

Hope this helps you!

a) A/(1/2)a =b

b) b = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Since everything is being multiplied on the right side you can just divide 1/2a to the other side that will leave b on the other side alone which is what you want

b) Just plug in the give numbers in the equation in part a) then do keep-change-flip then simplify then you should get 24 as the final answer.

Answer: 11.6

--------------------------------------

Explanation:

See the attached image for a visual reference

The distance from point D to E is 21 units. Point C is the midpoint, so CD is 10.5 units long (21/2 = 10.5)

We have a right triangle ACD. The legs are
AC = 5
CD = 10.5
The hypotenuse is
AD = x
Because AD is another radius of the same circle

Use the pythagorean theorem to find x
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 10.5^2 = x^2
25 + 110.25 = x^2
135.25 = x^2
x^2 = 135.25
x = sqrt(135.25)
x = 11.629703349613
which rounds to 11.6 when rounding to the nearest tenth (one decimal place)

Find the volume of the composite figure. please!

Irina-Kira [14]

Volume= Length * width ( aka Base ) * height

Break up the figure into easier figures, a small square and a bigger square.

Small square- 3*2*1 = 6 cm

Large Square- 7*6*1 = 42 cm

42 + 6 = 48 cm. But wait! You have to take one more step, which is minus-ing 6 from 48. Why? Notice that there is a little area where a side of the small square meets the bigger square. That little area is worth 3 cm ( length is 3, height is 1 cm ) times 2 ( 3 cm is one side, another 3 cm is the other side from the other square ) = 6 cm.

Your total answer should be 42. ( or 48, if your teacher doesn't count the area where the squares meet/join together ).

A rectangular plot of land is to be enclosed by a fence. One side is along a river, and does not need to be enclosed. If the tot

Bad White [126]

Answer:

Width 150 meters.

Length = 350 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the width of the fence = k meters

So, both sides = k + k = 2k meters

Also, the TOTAL fencing length = 600 m

So, the one side length of the fence = (600 - 2 k) meters

AREA = LENGTH x WIDTH

⇒ A(k) = (600 - 2k) (k)

or, A = -2k² + 600 k

The above equation is of the form: ax² +bx + C

Here: a = - 2 , b = 600 and C = 0

As a< 0, the parabola opens DOWNWARDS.

Here, x value is given as: $x = \frac{-b}{2a}$

Solving for the value of k similarly, we get:

$k = \frac{-b}{2a} = \frac{600}{2(-2)} = 150$

Thus the desired width = k = 150 meters

So, the desired dimensions of the plot is width 150 meters.

And length = 650 - 2k = 650 - 300 = 350 meters.

12=5x-13x-44. answer it in multi-step equations

fomenos

12=5x-13x-44

combine like terms

12 = -8x -44

add 44 to each side

12+44 = -8x

56= -8x

divide by -8 on each side

56/-8 = x

-7 =x
