|DF| = |DE| + |EF|
|DF| = 9x -36
|DE| = 47
|EF| = 3x+10
Substitute:
9x - 39 = 47 + 3x + 10
9x - 39 = 3x + 57 |+39
9x = 3x + 96 |-3x
6x = 96 |:6
x = 16
Put the value of x to the equation |EF| = 3x + 10
|EF| = (3)(16) + 10 = 48 + 10 = 58
Answer: |EF| = 58
Area is 6000 yd2
LW = 6000
field must be 40 yards longer than its width
L = W + 40
Replace L with W+40 in 1st equation to solve for Width
(W+40)(W) = 6000
W2 + 40W - 6000 = 0
This is a quadratic but is factorable
Factors of -6000 that add to 40 are (100)(-60)
(W+100)(W-60) = 0
W = -100 or W = 60
Since the width will not be negative discard -100
The width is 60 yards
Length is W+40 = 100 yards
I think you are asking for help because maybe you are nervous to guess....but really just trust your first answer! and think about it!! you are so smart you can do it;) (cuz smart pple ask qs;))
The middle right is 145-90, so 55°. I'm not sure about the others
