A rectangular parking lot has a length 20 H more

Mathematics

leva [86]3 years ago

Let the width = X

The length would be X + 20

Area = Length x width:

2400 = x * (x+20)

Simplify:

2400 = x^2 + 20x

Subtract 2400 from both sides:

x^2 + 20x - 2400 = 0

Factor:

(x-40) (x+60) = 0

Solve for both x's:

x = 40 and x = -60

The dimensions of a parking lot have to be positive values so you would use x = 40.

The width = x = 40

The length = x +20 = 40+20 = 60

The dimension of the parking lot is 40H x 60H

Solve #1 pls, I need to find the shortest side, median side, and longest side
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Shortest side = 39 cm.

Median side = 65 cm.

Longest side = 91 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter in total is 195 cm. The ratio of the sides are 3 : 5 : 7.

First, find how much parts there are as a whole, by combining the ratios:

3 + 5 + 7 = 15 parts.

Divide the total of parts from the total measurement:

195/15 = 13

Each part has the measurement of 13 cm.

1 part = 13 cm.

Use the following ratio to solve for each of the sides:

Shortest side: 3

3 x 13 = 39

Shortest side = 39 cm.

Median side: 5

5 x 13 = 65

Median side = 65 cm.

Longest side: 7

7 x 13 = 91

Longest side = 91 cm.

Check. Combine all side measurements together. They should equal 195:

39 + 65 + 91 = 195

(39 + 65) + 91 = 195

(104) + 91 = 195

195 = 195 (True).

Answer:

3/13

Step-by-step explanation:

8/13 subtract by 5/13. If the denominator is the same, you keep it, don't change it. Just subtract the numerator.

Make sure to simplify, if it is already simplified that will be the answer.
