The height of Tower A is 720 feet more than Tower B. The two towers have a combined height of 1,982 feet. What are the heights o

Okay so. 

We have two basic equations 

Tower A+ B+720    A is 720ft taller than B. 
Tower A+B= 1982     Combined height is 1982ft

Replace A with B+720 in 2nd equation and solve for B 

B+720+B=1982   Combine like terms 
2B+720=1982     Subtract 720 from both sides
2B=1262              Divide both sides by 2
B=1262/2 
B= 631ft 

We know that A=B+720 so you simply need to do that addition to have the height of both towers.

For the inverse variation equation p = StartFraction 8 Over V EndFraction, what is the value of V when p = one-half?
likoan [24]

Answer:

V=16

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an inverse variation

p=\frac{8}{V}

We have to find the value of V when p=1/2

To find the value of V we will substitute the value of p

Substitute the value of p

Then, we get

\frac{1}{2}=\frac{8}{V}

\frac{V}{2}=8

Using multiplication property of equality

V=8\times 2

Using multiplication property of equality

V=16

Hence, the value of V=16

A water sprinkler sends water out in a circular pattern. How many feet away from the sprinkler can it spread water if the area f
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

The sprinkler can spread water 18 feet away.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Area formed by watering pattern = 1,017.36 square feet

We have to find the how far the sprinkler spread the water.

The sprinkler covers a circular area. We need to find the radius of this circular area to find the how far the sprinkler spread the water.

Area of circle =

A = \pi r^2

where r is the radius of the circle.

Putting values, we get,

1017.36 = 3.14 r^2\\\\r^2 = \dfrac{1017.36}{3.14}\\\\r^2 = 324\\r = \sqrt{324} = 18\text{ feet}

Thus, the sprinkler can spread water 18 feet away.

Karolina [17]
A. How many kilowatt hours of electricity did the Smiths use during February?

Kilowatt hours of electricity the Smiths used during February:
Meter read on March 1 - meter read on February 1 =
20,288 kilowatt hours - 19,423 kilowatt hours =
865 kilowatt hours
Answer: The Smiths used 865 kilowatt hours of electricity during February

b. How many kilowatt hours did they use during March?

Kilowatt hours of electricity the Smiths used during March:
Meter read on April 1 - meter read on March 1 =
21,163 kilowatt hours - 20,288 kilowatt hours =
875 kilowatt hours
Answer: The Smiths used 875 kilowatt hours of electricity during March

The area of the conference table in Mr. Nathan’s office must be no more than 175 ft2. If the length of the table is 18 ft more t
valentina_108 [34]
The answer is  0 < x <span>≤ 7 
</span>
First, we know that width =  x
Which means that length = x +18

So, the possible equation for the Table's area is

X (X + 18)  ≤ 175

X^2 + 18x - 175  <span>≤ </span>0

Next, we need to calculate is by using complete square method
x^2 + 18x + 81 <span>≤ 175 + 81

(x + 9)^2 </span><span>≤ 256

|x + 9| </span><span>≤ sqrt(256)

|x + 9| </span><span>≤ +-16

-16 </span>≤ x + 9 <span>≤ 16

</span>-16 - 9 ≤ x <span>≤ 16 - 9

</span>-25 ≤ x <span>≤ 7

Since the width couldn't be negative, we can change -25 with 0,

so it become
