Lets write as an equation the info provided in the problem:
original area = 200*300 = 60000 squared meters
Adding x meters to the length is: 300 + x
Adding x meters to the width is: 200 + x
If the area doubles in size we have: 2*<span>60000
Now writing as a single equation all info:
(300 + x)(200 + x) = 120000
We have to make the operations and solve:
60000 + 300x + 200x + x^2 = </span><span>120000
x^2 + 500x - 60000 = 0
This is a squared trinomial, to solve it we need two numbers that subtracted give us 500 and multiplied -60000:
(x + 600)(x -100) = 0
So there are two solutions, x = -600 and x = 100, we choose the positive one:
x = 100
thererefore the value of x is 100 meters</span>
Answer: 10, 11, & 12
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let x represent the age of the youngest child.
Their ages are consecutive so,
Youngest: x
Middle: x + 1
Oldest: x + 2
The age of the Youngest squared (x²) equals 8 times the Oldest [8(x + 2)] plus 4.
x² = 8(x + 2) + 4
x² = 8x + 16 + 4
x² = 8x + 20
x² - 8x - 20 = 0
(x - 10)(x + 2) = 0
x - 10 = 0 or x + 2 = 0
x = 10 or x = -2
Since age cannot be negative, x = -2 is not valid
So, the Youngest (x) is 10
the Middle (x + 1) is 11
and the Oldest (x + 2) is 12
The measure of MN from the diagram is 6
<h3>Similarity theorem of triangles</h3>
From the given triangle, the expression below is true;
ML/LK = MN/NO
Given the following parameters
ML = 4
LK = 10
NO= 15
Substitute the given parameters into the formula
4/10 = MN/15
Cross multiply
10MN = 4 * 15
10MN = 60
MN = 6
Hence the measure of MN from the diagram is 6

SA: 2pi (r^2)+2pi(r)(h)
In order to find radius (r) of the base you must divide 10 by pi then find the square root of the result
√(10/pi)=r: 1.784cm
h: a) 8.0cm
b) 6.5cm
c) 9.4cm
2pi (3.183)+2pi(1.784)(8)=109.673cm^2
2pi (3.183)+2pi(1.784)(6.5)=92.859cm^2
2pi (3.183)+2pi(1.784)(9.4)=125.366cm^2
