<h3>Answers:  </h3>

Width = 10 feet

Length = 40 feet

================================================

Explanation:

W = width

L = 4W = four times the width = length

P = perimeter

P = 2*(W+L)

P = 2*(W+4W)

P = 2(5W)

P = 10W

The perimeter is 100 feet.

P = 100

10W = 100 .... plug in P = 10W

W = 100/10 .... divide both sides by 10

W = 10

The width is 10 feet.

L = 4W

L = 4*10

L = 40

The length is 40 feet.

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

Check:

P = 2(L+W)

P = 2(40+10)

P = 2(50)

P = 100

or another way to check is to add up the four sides {10, 40, 10, 40}

10+40+10+40 = 50+50 = 100

This confirms the answer.

Answer:

<h2>Width = 10 feet</h2><h2>Length = 40 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2W

where

P = 100 feet

L = 4W

plugin values into the formula:

100 = 2(4W) + 2W

100 = 8W + 2W

100 = 10W

W = 100/10

W = 10 feet

L = 4W

L = 4(10)

L = 40 feet

P = 2(40) + 2(10)

P = 80 + 20

P = 100

Solve the inequality.<br> 2(4 + 2x) &lt; 5x + 5?<br> X&lt;_____
mixer [17]

Answer:

x > 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2(4 + 2x) < 5x + 5 ← distribute left side

8 + 4x < 5x + 5 ( subtract 5 from both sides )

3 + 4x < 5x ( subtract 4x from both sides )

3 < x ⇒ x > 3

An eagle perched 40 ft up in a tree looks down at a 35 degree angle(angle of depression) and spots a vole. How far is the vole f
maria [59]

Answer:

X=49ft

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Height of Eagle h=40ft

Angle of depression \theta=35\textdegree

 

Generally the trigonometry equation for diagonal X is mathematically given by

Cos\theta \textdegree=\frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse} }

Cos\theta \textdegree=\frac{h}{X} }

X=\frac{40}{Cos 35 } }

X=48.83ft

X=49ft

I need answers to this
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

x = -5, and y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that we have two equations:

A = B

and

C = D

combining the equations means that we will do:

First we multiply both whole equations by constants:

k*(A = B) ---> k*A = k*B

j*(C = D) ----> j*C = j*D

And then we "add" them:

k*A + j*C = k*B + j*D

Now we have the equations:

-x  - y = 11

4*x - 5*y = 10

We want to add them in a given form that one of the variables cancels, so we can solve it for the other variable.

Then we can take the first equation:

-x  - y = 11

and multiply both sides by 4.

4*(-x - y = 11)

Then we get:

4*(-x - y) = 4*11

-4*x - 4*y = 44

Now we have the two equations:

-4*x - 4*y = 44

4*x - 5*y = 10

(here we can think that we multiplied the second equation by 1, then we have k = 4, and j = 1)

If we add them, we get:

(-4*x - 4*y) + (4*x - 5*y) = 10 + 44

-4*x - 4*y + 4*x - 5*y = 54

-9*y = 54

So we combined the equations and now ended with an equation that is really easy to solve for y.

y = 54/-9 = -6

Now that we know the value of y, we can simply replace it in one of the two equations to get the value of x.

-x - y = 11

-x - (-6) = 11

-x + 6 = 11

-x = 11 -6 = 5

-x = 5

x = -5

Then:

x = -5, and y = -6

What is the equation of the function in slope-intercept form?
Rasek [7]
To write this equation, you need use the formula y=mx+b.

m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept.

The y intercept is the point where the line touches the y axis. In this case, the y-intercept is 1.

The slope is just rise over run from one coordinate to another. The slope is 2/-1 which could be simplified as -2. The slope just means that we are going up 2 and left 1 to get to a new coordinate.

The equation is y=-2x+1

Have a good day! :)
