A family is comparing different car seats. One car seat is designed for a child up to and including 30 lb. Another car seat is d

esigned for a child between 15 lb and 40 lb. A third car seat is designed for a child between 30 lb and 85 lb, inclusive. Model these ranges on a number line. Represent each range of weight using interval notation. Which car seats are appropriate for a 32-lb child?

The number lines should show the weights the car seats are designed for in comparison the the weight of the 32lb child. The car seat made for children 30lb and lighter would not work because this child is 32lbs. Model this by placing a filled in circle at 30 and the arrow should face left. The seat for children between 15lbs and 40lbs and the seat designed for a child that is between 30lbs and 85lbs would work because the child is within these weight ranges. The number line for the seat for a 15lb-40lb child would have open circles at 15 and 40 with a line connecting the two points. The number line for a 30lb-85lb child should have filled in circles at these two point with a line connecting them.

The two triangles are similar.
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are similar since each triangle is the same shape of right triangle but different sizes. To find x, write a proportion between two equal ratios of side lengths.

\frac{28}{20}=\frac{4x+2}{3x}

Solve by cross multiplying.

28(3x) = 20(4x+2)

84x = 80x + 40

4x = 40

x=10

Solve the equation and check the solution.
myrzilka [38]

A - 2 1/2 = 1 1/2

Solve for A by adding 2 1/2 to both sides:

A = 1 1/2 + 2 1/2

A = 4

The answer is c. A = 4

Check: 4 - 2 1/2 = 1 1/2

A rectangular swimming pool is bordered by a concrete patio. the width of the patio is the same on every side. the area of the s
andre [41]
Answer:

x = \frac{1}{4}\left(-(l + w) + \sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2} \right)

where

l = length of the pool (w/o the patio)
w = width of the pool (w/o the patio)

Explanation: 

Let 

x = width of the patio
l = length of the pool (w/o the patio)
w = width of the pool (w/o the patio)

Since the pool is bordered by a complete patio, 

Length of the pool (with the patio) 
= (length of the pool (w/o the patio)) + 2*(width of the patio)
Length of the pool (with the patio) = l + 2x

Width of the pool (with the patio) 
= (width of the pool (w/o the patio)) + 2*(width of the patio)
Width of the pool (with the patio) = w + 2x

Note that

Area of the pool (w/o the patio)
=  (length of the pool (w/o the patio))(width of the pool (w/o the patio))
Area of the pool (w/o the patio) = lw

Area of the pool (with the patio)
= (length of the pool (w/o the patio))(width of the pool (w/o the patio))
= (l + 2x)(w + 2x)
= w(l + 2x) + 2x(l + 2x)
= lw + 2xw + 2xl + 4x²
Area of the pool (with the patio) = 4x² + 2x(l + w) + lw

Area of the patio
= (Area of the pool (with the patio)) - (Area of the pool (w/o the patio))
= (4x² + 2x(l + w) + lw) - lw
Area of the patio = 4x² + 2x(l + w)

Since the area of the patio is equal to the area of the surface of the pool, the area of the patio is equal to the area of the pool without the patio. In terms of the equation,

Area of the patio = Area of the pool (w/o the patio)
4x² + 2x(l + w) = lw
4x² + 2x(l + w) - lw = 0    (1)

Let 

a = numerical coefficient of x² = 4
b = numerical coefficient of x = 2(l + w)
c = constant term = -lw

Then using quadratic formula, the roots of the equation 4x² + 2x(l + w) - lw = 0 is given by

x = \frac{-b \pm  \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}&#10;\\ = \frac{-2(l + w) \pm  \sqrt{(2(l + w))^2 - 4(4)(-lw)}}{2(4)} &#10;\\ = \frac{-2(l + w) \pm  \sqrt{(4(l + w)^2) + 16lw}}{8} &#10;\\ = \frac{-2(l + w) \pm  \sqrt{(4(l^2 + 2lw + w^2) + 4(4lw)}}{8}&#10;\\ = \frac{-2(l + w) \pm  \sqrt{(4(l^2 + 2lw + w^2 + 4lw)}}{8}&#10;\\ = \frac{-2(l + w) \pm  \sqrt{(4(l^2 + 6lw + w^2)}}{8}
= \frac{-2(l + w) \pm 2\sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2}}{8} \\= \frac{2}{8}(-(l + w) \pm \sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2}) \\x = \frac{1}{4}(-(l + w) \pm \sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2}) \\\boxed{x = \frac{1}{4}\left(-(l + w) + \sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2} \right) \text{ or }}&#10;\\\boxed{x = -\frac{1}{4}\left((l + w) + \sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2} \right)}


Since (l + w) + \sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2} \ \textgreater \  0, -\frac{1}{4}\left((l + w) + \sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2}\right) is negative. Since x represents the patio width, x cannot be negative. Hence, the patio width is given by 

\boxed{x = \frac{1}{4}\left(-(l + w) + \sqrt{l^2 + 6lw + w^2} \right)}
