Answer:

Height of garden view hotel = 235 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

let

height of the plaza = a

height of Garden view Hotel  = 2a - 17

combined height = 361 ft

The combined height can be represented as follows:

a + (2a - 17) = 361

3a - 17 = 361

collect like terms

3a= 361 + 17

3a = 378

divide both sides by 3

3a/3 = 378/3

a = 378/3

a =  126 ft

Height of garden view hotel = 2 × 126 - 17

Height of garden view hotel = 2 × 126 - 17

Height of garden view hotel = 252 - 17

Height of garden view hotel = 235 ft

Answer:

The height of Gardenview hotel is 38 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem let first suppose Garden View Hotel is "x" and the Plaza Hotel is "y" so the first equation as it says in the question will be 17x- 2y =0 and the second equation will be their combined height which is x+y =361 . Now let's solve both the equations simultaneously to get the height of GardenView Hotel.

17_x - 2_{y} =0 (1)

x + y = 361   (2)

Now multiply the second whole equation by 2 so that we can eliminate y from both the equations , after doing that the final equation is 19x = 772 and if we calculate x from this we will get the height of gardenview hotel which is 38 feet.

An apartment has two closets. Closet #1 is 4 feet long and 5 feet deep; Closet #2 is 6 feet long and 3 feet deep. Both closets a
mezya [45]

Answer:

Closet #1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Closet #1 is 4x5x8, right? so, 4x5=20, and 20x8=160 feet. Closet #2 is 6x3x8, and 6x3 is 18. That's already less than 20 even before we multiply by 8. So, the answer to your question is Closet #1.

GEOMETRY!! HELP!!! Will mark you brainiliest!
wolverine [178]

    For the first question, note how the complement of an angle is going to be added to the angle to measure 90 degrees. Therefore, you may represent the first question with the equation "(2x+42)+x=90," since the sum of the two angles would be 90 degrees and the complement in question would be "x" degrees, with the other angle measuring (2x+42) degrees.

    For the second question, note that (diameter)(pi) = (circumference). This formula may be used, since you may substitute 13.47 cm for the circumference and the actual value of pi for pi. Divide both sides of the equation by pi, and you will get the diameter of the circle. Finally, round it to the nearest tenth.

    For the last question, realize how QX is the angle bisector of angle PQR, so PQR is split into two angles. This means that Q is the vertex of angle PQR, whereas the angles is split into two congruent angles: angle PQX and angle RQX. You should take the measure of angle PQR and divide that by two to get the measure of angle PQX. I'm sorry to say that I don't really know how to answer this question as well, since technically choice D would work because 180 degrees is the measure of half of a full circle, which measures 360 degrees? Question 3 seems kind of vague. I'd go with the greatest value in the answer choice that is less than 180 degrees.

The graphs below have the same shape. What is the equation of the graph of g(x)?
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

B. g(x) = (x + 2)²

Step-by-step explanation:

We got the graph of g by translating the graph of the parent function

f(x) = x² two units to the left

Therefore the equation of the graph of g is (x + 2)²
