W= width L= length = 2W
Area of Rectangle= Length * Widthsubstitute the area and the value of L in the formula
28,800 m^2= 2W * W
28,800= 2W^2divide both sides by 2 in an effort to isolate the variable w
14,400= W^2take the square root of both sides
√14,400= W^2
we want the negative and positive root of the radicand (the number under the radical symbol - 14,400 in this case)
120= w OR -120= w
LENGTHL= 2W= 2(120)= 240 meters
ANSWER: The side lengths are W= 120 m; L= 240 m. Even though W= -120 too, it is not a valid solution in this case since a field cannot have a negative value.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
<h2>64 cm²</h2><h2 />
Step-by-step explanation:
surface area of a square base pyramid = base area + 4 ( triangular sides area)
where:
base = 4 cm
side height length = 6 cm
Surface area = 4² + 2(4)6
= 16+ 48
= 64 cm²
1) x=6, y=3
2) no solution
Answer:
Carter family = 25 hours
Davis family = 31 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the number of hours the Carter family used their sprinkler is x and the number of hours the Davis family used their sprinkler for is y.
So combined:
x + y = 45 hours
and we are also told that:
40x + 15y = 1300 L
So we can do simultaneous equations to solve the problem.
With some rearranging, we can figure out that:
y= 45 - x
and by substituting that into the second equation:
40x + 15 (45 -x) = 40x + 675 - 15x = 1300L
25x = 1300 - 675
25x = 625
x = 25 = hours that the Carter family used their sprinkler
and we can substitute that back into the original equation to find how many hours the Davis family used their sprinkler so:
25 + y = 56
y = 31
The Davis family used their sprinkler for 31 hours whilst the Carter family used their sprinkler for 25 hours.
