Adam currently runs about 40 miles per week, and he wants to increase his weekly mileage by 30%. How many miles will Adam run pe

BigorU [14]

Answer:

52 miles/week (12 more miles per week)

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to know the miles per week with this increasement, we'll use the rule of 3, assuming that 40 miles is the 100% innitially so:

If:

40 miles --------->100%

X miles ----------> 30%

Solving for X we have the following:

X = 30 * 40 / 100 = 12 miles

So, if Adam wants to increase his weekly mileage by 30%, he needs to run 12 more miles, and that makes a total of 52 miles/week

The area of a square is given by x2, where x is the length of one side. Mary's original garden was in the shape of a square. She

Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

$128\text{ ft}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the area of a square is given by $x^2$ , where x is the length of one side.

Mary's original garden was in the shape of a square. She has decided to double the area of her garden. So the new area of Mary's garden will be 2 times the area of original garden.

We can represent this information in an equation as:

$\text{Area of Mary's new garden}=2x^{2}$

Therefore, the expression $2x^2$ will represent the area of Mary's new garden.

To evaluate the area of new garden, if the side length of Mary's original garden was 8 feet, we will substitute x equals 8 in our expression.

$\text{Area of Mary's new garden}=2(8\text{ ft})^{2}$

$\text{Area of Mary's new garden}=2*64\text{ ft}^{2}$

$\text{Area of Mary's new garden}=128\text{ ft}^{2}$

Therefore, the area of Mary's new garden will be 128 square feet.

A lighthouse is located on an island 200 feet from the shore of the mainland as

Deffense [45]

Answer: Approximately d = 208.72

============================================================

Work Shown:

Make sure your calculator is in radian mode

A quick way to check is to compute cos(pi) and you should get -1

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(x) = 200/d

cos(0.29) = 200/d

d*cos(0.29) = 200

d = 200/cos(0.29)

d = 208.715135166392 which is approximate

d = 208.72

I rounded to two decimal places since x is rounded in that manner as well. Round however else you need if your teacher instructs.

In Argentina, a cow on a ranch is expected to need an average of 4200 m2

nika2105 [10]

The cows of Argentina needs an approximate area of 4200 m² for grazing, and there is a total of 4500 cows.

And we are asked to find the total area of their grazing but in hectares. So, we can write:

$1 \: cow = 4200 \: {m}^{2}$

Then, for 4500 cows:

$4500 \: cows = 4200 \: {m}^{2} \times 4500$

$4500 \: cows = 18900000 \: m {}^{2}$

We know that, 1 hectares = 10000 m² = 10⁴ m²

Then let the area of the field be x in hectares:

$1 \: hectare = 10000 \: {m}^{2}$

$x \: hectare = 18900000 \: {m}^{2}$

Then, putting them in proportion, We will get:

$x = \dfrac{18900000}{10000} hectares$

$x = \boxed{ 1890 \: hectares}$

So, the total area in hectares = 1890 hectares.

And we are done !!
