ANSWER

72 square feet

EXPLANATION

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

P= 2l+2w

It was given that, the perimeter of the rectangular mat, is 36 feet.

36= 2l+2w

Divide through by 2.

18 = l + w...(1)

It was given also that, the length of the mat is twice its width.

This implies that,

l = 2w ...(2)

Put equation (2) into equation (1) to get,

18 = 2w + w

18 = 3w

w = 6 \: ft

This means that the length is 12 ft.

The area of the rectangular mat is

A = l \times w

A = 6 \times 12 = 72 {ft}^{2}

Given that sin0=21/29 what is the value cos 0 for 0°< 0<90°
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

20/29

Step-by-step explanation:

sin θ = 21/29

Use Pythagorean identity:

sin² θ + cos² θ = 1

(21/29)² + cos² θ = 1

441/841 + cos² θ = 1

cos² θ = 400/841

cos θ = ±20/29

Since 0° < θ < 90°, cos θ > 0.  So cos θ = 20/29.

Write the equation of the parabola that has the vertex at point (3,−12) and passes through the point (0,6).
lana [24]

Answer:

y = 2(x-3)^2 -12

y = -4/9(x-2)^2 +7  bonus

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex form of a parabola is

y = a(x-h)^2 + k  where (h,k) is the vertex

y = a(x-3)^2 - 12

We have one point given (0,6)

6 = a (0-3) ^2 -12

6 = a (-3)^2 -12

6 = 9a-12

Add 12 to each side

6+12 = 9a

18 = 9a

Divide each side by 9

18/9 = 9a/9

a=2

y = 2(x-3)^2 -12

We follow the same steps for the bonus

y = a(x-2)^2 +7

Substitute the point into the equation

3 = a (-1-2)^2 +7

3 =a (-3)^2 +7

3 = 9a +7

subtract 7 from each side

3-7 = 9a +7-7

-4 = 9a

Divide by 9

-4/9 =a

y = -4/9(x-2)^2 +7

A basketball player makes 4 out of 20 free throws. What is his shooting percentage?
DiKsa [7]
We can convert that into a fraction of 100 for the percentage. 

4/20= 20/100

(multiply both by 5)

So, the basketball player makes 20% of the throws.

I hope this helps!
