L = w - 20

12000 = w × ( w - 20 )
12000 = w^2 - 20w
w^2 - 20w - 12000 = 0
( w - 10 ) ( w - 10 ) = 0

width = 10

If angle MNO is a rectangle, and MO = 54 , what is the length of overline NP ? A. 34 B. 22 C. 18 D. 108 E. 27 F. Cannot be deter
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Option (E)

Step-by-step explanation:

LMNO is a rectangle.

MO = 54

By the property of a rectangle,

1). Diagonals are equal in length.

2). Diagonals equally bisect each other.

Since, MO = LN

Therefore, LN = 54

Since, NP = \frac{1}{2}(LN)

NP = \frac{54}{2} = 27

Option (E) will be the correct option.

A fisherman can row upstream at 2 mph and downstream at 8 mph. He started rowing upstream until he got tired and then rowed down
slega [8]
<h3>Answer:    16 miles</h3>

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

Explanation:

x = time in hours spent going upstream

5-x = remaining time in hours spent going downstream

Those two quantities add to 5 hours total.

Let's find the expression for how far the fisherman went upstream

distance = rate*time

d = r*t

d = 2x

Do the same for the downstream portion

d = r*t

d = 8(5-x)

d = 40-8x

The values of d refer to the same distance because he came back to the starting point.

Set those right hand sides equal to one another and solve for x.

2x = 40-8x

2x+8x = 40

10x = 40

x = 40/10

x = 4

5-x = 5-4 = 1

He spent 4 hours going upstream, and the remaining 1 hour coming back downstream.

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

If he spent 4 hours going upstream at 2 mph, then he traveled d = r*t = 2*4 = 8 miles.

The remaining 1 hour going downstream at 8 mph means he traveled d = r*t = 8*1 = 8 miles, which matches with the previous result. This confirms we have the correct one-way distance of 8 miles.

Therefore, the total round trip distance is 2*8 = 16 miles
