Answer:

length = 115

width = 115 -7 = 108

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

Perimeter of rectangle with length 'l' and width 'b' is given by,

Perimeter = 2(l + b)

<u>To find the length and breadth</u>

Here perimeter = 446 cm

Let 'x' be the length of rectangle then width = x - 7

Perimeter = 2(l + b) =446

2(x + x - 7) = 446

2(2x  - 7) = 446

2x - 7 = 446/2 = 223

2x = 223 +7

2x = 230

x = 230/2 = 115

Therefore length = 115

Then width = 115 -7 = 108

Answer:

length = 115 cm

width = 108 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 446 centimeters

LEt L be the length of the pool

The width of the pool is 7 centimeters less than the length of the pool.

width = length - 7

W= L-7

Given perimeter = 446

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length)+2(width)

446 = 2(L) + 2(W)                    we know W = L-7

446 = 2(L) + 2(L-7)    

446 = 2L + 2L - 14

Add 14 on both sides

460 = 4L

divide by 4 on both sides

L= 115

Length L= 115

Width W = L - 7 = 115 - 7= 108

The equation of a circle is given below.
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

(h,k) = (32,-4)

r = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation for a circle is given by:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2   (1)

where (h,k) is the center of the circle and r is the radius.

You have the following equation:

x^2+(y+4)^2=64x   (2)

You first need to complete squares in order to obtain an equation of the form (1). Thus, you have that the second term must be in a perfect square trinomial:

2b = 64

b = 32

Then, you have to sum 32^2 and also subtract the same number in the expression (2):

x^2-64x+(y+4)^2=0\\\\(x^2-64x+32^2)+(y+4)^2-32^2=0\\\\(x-32)^2+(y+4)^2=32^2

you compare the last result with expression (1) and obtain that the raiuds of the circle is r = 32

Furthermore, the center of the circle is (h,k) = (32,-4)

Use vertex (h, k) and a table of values g(x) = 2 * (x - 2) ^ 2 + 5
nasty-shy [4]

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the equation is in vertex form: a(x - h)² + k, we immediately know that the vertex is at (2, 5).

x   |   y

0   |   13

1    |    7

2   |    5

The results of a swim meet are shown. Who swam the fastest? Explain your reasoning.
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer : The Susana swam the fastest.

Step-by-step explanation :

Speed : It is defined as the distance traveled per unit time.

Formula used :

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}

First we have to determine speed of the following persons.

<u>For Tawni :</u>

Distance = 50 m

Time = 40.8 s

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{50m}{40.8s}=1.225m/s

The speed of Tawni is, 1.225 m/s

<u>For Pepita :</u>

Distance = 100 m

Time = 60.2 s

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{100m}{60.2s}=1.661m/s

The speed of Pepita is, 1.661 m/s

<u>For Susana :</u>

Distance = 200 m

Time = 112.4 s

Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{200m}{112.4s}=1.779m/s

The speed of Susana is, 1.779 m/s

From this we conclude that, in this problem meter affects the response and the speed of Susana is more than the Pepita and Tawani.

Thus, Susana swam the fastest.
