Answer: Length = 15 meters
Width = 2 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w
Area of a rectangle = l × w
where l = length
w = width
Therefore,
2l + 2w = 34 ...... i
l × w = 30 ........ ii
From equation i
2l + 2w = 34
Divide through by 2.
l + w = 17 ...... iii
Then, l = 17 - w ........ iv
Put equation iv into ii
l × w = 30
(17 - w) × w = 30
17w - w² = 30
w² - 17w + 30 = 0
w² - 15w - 2w + 30 = 0
w(w - 15) - 2(w - 15) = 0
(w - 2) = 0
w = 0 + 2 = 2
w - 15 = 0
w = 0 + 15 = 15
Length = 15 meters
Width = 2 meters
Answer:
806 yd sq.
Step-by-step explanation:
Area=(length)(width), so to find the surface area you can just find the area of each side and then add then all together.
They already gave you the length of some of the sides, so you should use that to help you find the length of all the sides.
You can see the entire prism's length is 17 yd, width is 4 yd, and height is 14 yd.
The large visible side's area would be (14)(17)= 283 yd. There's another one of these side's on the other side that we can't see. So we would do (283)(2) = 566 yd sq.
Next, we'll find the area of the side on the side by doing (14)(4)=56. Once again, there's two of these sides so we do (56)(2) to get 112 yd sq for this side.
Finally, we'll find the area of the top side. We can do (4)(17) =68, and then (68)(2) to get 138 yd sq.
Now, we have the area of each side of the prism! To find the total surface area, just add them all together. 556+112+138=806.
The surface area would be 806 yd sq.
If the hypotenuse is 58cm, and one of the others legs is 42cm the answer would be 40cm
Explanation:
Here you have to use the formula
Then you have to pose the formula in terms of one of the legs, so:
So when you change the letter for numbers you have that:
a=40
He used 53 pounds. I got this by using two equations.
a+b=117
and
5.8a+4.1b= 569.8
I took the first equation and subtracted 'b' so the equation looked like a=117-b.
I then plugged in 117-b into the second equation, so it ended up looking like this:
5.8 (117-b)=569.8
5.8 times 117 is 678.6. And 5.8 times negative b is negative 5.8b.
The equation now looks like this:
678.6-5.8b+4.1b=569.8
Add like terms
678.6-1.7b=569.8
Then subtract 678.6 from both sides
-1.7b= -108.8
divide each side by -1.7
you get b= 64.
But because you are looking for how many pounds for a, subtract 64 from 117. You get 53. 53 is the answer.
