What we know:
Football field is 100 yards in length
End zones are 10 yards each in length
Perimeter between pylons is 306 2/3 yards
What we need to find:
a. Perimeter and area of one end zone
b. Perimeter and area of without end zones
c. Perimeter and area of playing field with end zones
First we need to find the measurements of the field between pylons using the perimeter of 306 2/3 yards. We already know the length is 100 yards so we need to find width (w).
P=2l + 2w
306 2/3=2 (100) + 2w
306 2/3= 200 + 2w
300 2/3-200=200-200+2w
106 2/3=2w
106 2/3/2=2/2w
53 1/3=w
a. Perimeter=2 (10)+2 (53 1/3)=126 2/3 yards
Area=10×53 1/3=533 1/3 yd²
b. Perimeter=2 (100)+2 (53 1/3)=306 2/3 yards
Area=100×53 1/3=5333 1/3 yd²
c. Perimeter=2 (120) + 2 (53 1/3)=346 2/3 yards
Area=120×53 1/3=6400 yd²
That is true because the altitudes bisect the base lines.
Answer: -3
Step-by-step explanation:
ab just means a multiplied by b.
So just plug in the values for the variables to get 3 * -1 which equals -3.
Answer:
x = {-1/5, 1}
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x - 2)² - 1 = 8
Add 1 to both sides
(5x - 2)² = 9
Take the square root of both sides
5x - 2 = ±3
------------------------------
<u>Solution I</u> for 5x - 2 = +3
5x - 2 = 3
add 2 to both sides
5x = 5
Divide both sides by 5
x = 1
------------------------------
<u>Solution II</u> for 5x - 2 = -3
5x - 2 = -3
add 2 to both sides
5x = -1
Divide both sides by 5
x = -1/5
-------------------------------
x = {-1/5, 1}
