Amar's age = a
sister is a - 5
add both = 39
a + (a - 5) = 39
2a - 5 = 39
2a = 44
a = 22 and sister is 17
18 miles = 30 minutes
? miles = 10 minutes
cross multiply
? x 30 = 18 x 10 (180)
? = 180/30
? = 6
the city bus would cover 6 miles in 10 minutes.
1. Let's call:
x: the width of the walkway.
b: 2x+16 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
h: 2x+32 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
A: 924 ft^2 ( the area of the pool of including the walkway).
2. The area of a rectangle is:
A=(b)(h)
b: the base of the rectangle (2x+16)
a: the height of the rectangle (2x+32)
3. Then, we have a quadratic equation:
924=(2x+16)(2x+32)
4x^2+64x+32x+512-924=0
4x^2+96x-412=0
4. We apply the quadratic formula to find the value of "x":
x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
x=3.71
The answer is: The width of the walkway is 3.71 ft
Answer:
The larger angle is 54°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Let the angles be: θ and α where
θ > α
Sum = 72
α : θ = 1 : 3
Required
Determine the larger angle
First, we get the proportion of the larger angle (from the ratio)
The sum of the ratio is 1 + 3 = 4
So, the proportion of the larger angle is ¾.
Its value is then calculated as:.
θ = Proportion * Sum
θ = ¾ * 72°
θ = 3 * 18°
θ = 54°
Answer is square with the side of 212 inches. It's area is 212×212 which is bigger than rectangular area.
