A city park commission received a donation of playground equipment from a parents' organization. The area of the playground need

s to be 256 square yards for the children to use it safely. The playground will be rectangular. The city will pay to have soft pavement made of recycled tires installed in the playground. In the first plan, one side 8 yards longer than the other side. Which equations model the possible dimensions of the playground?

Answer:

The area of the playground needs to be 256 square yards.

The playground will be rectangular.

The city will pay to have soft pavement made of recycled tires installed in the playground.

In the first plan, one side 8 yards longer than the other side.

Let the width of the park be = w

So, the other side will be = w+8

So, the area can be found as :

w(w+8)=256

This equation will help to give the dimensions, related to area.

We can also solve this using quadratic formula.

w^{2} +8w-256=0

We get dimensions as : 12.49  yards and 20.49 yards.

faltersainse [42]

the amount of money rick earned can be solve using the formula:

F = P (1+ i)^n

Where F is the future money

P is the initial money

i is the interest rate

n is the time

F = 1000 ( 1 + 0.04)^10

F = $ 1,480.24

Sally

F = 1000 + (50)(10)

F = $ 1500

So the answer is D

(0,1),(2,5),(3,7) in an equation
12345 [234]

The equation that gives the coordinates (0,1), (2,5), (3,7) is y =2x + 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; We need to determine the equation relating the x to the f(x) values from the given coordinates. y is the dependent value whereas x is the independent value i.e. y's value depends on x's value.

Step 2; If we multiply the x value with 2 and add the resulting answer with 1 we get the y value.

y = 2x + 1 is the equation that relates the values in the table.

Step 3; Now we substitute the values in the equation to see if it's correct.

For x = 0, y = 2(0) + 1 = 0 + 1 = 1,

For x = 2, y = 2(2) + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5,

For x = 3, y = 2(3) + 1 = 6 + 1 = 7.

So the equation that gives the coordinates (0,1), (2,5), (3,7) is y =2x + 1.

When the height of a rectangular prism was halved, the volume was 168 cubic cm. if the original prism had a length, width, and h
kondaur [170]

a) The equation is therefore; x³ + 3x² + 2x = 336

b) Solving for the length, we get the length to be; x = 6.

c) All workings are as shown below;

According to the question;

  • When the height of a rectangular prism was halved, the volume was 168 cubic cm.

In essence, the volume of the original prism is;

  • Volume = 168 × 2.

  • Volume = 336cm³

Since, the original prism had a length, width, and height of consecutive integers, increasing in that order.

  • Therefore, length = x

  • width = (x +1)

  • height = (x +2)

  • Volume = x (x+1) (x+2) = 336

a) The equation is therefore;

  • <em>x³ + 3x² + 2x = 336</em>

b) Solving for the length, x is as follows;

  • (x-6) (x² + 9x + 56) = 0

By testing values and checking;

  • Upon solving the polynomial, x = 6.

c) All workings are as shown above.
