(a) The sum of length and width is half the perimeter, so the breadth in terms of length (x) in cm will be
.. breadth = 34 -x


(b) Then the expression for the area (in cm^2) is
.. area = length*breadth
.. 253 = (x)(34 -x)
.. x^2 -34x +253 = 0 . . . . . subtract the right side, eliminate parentheses
.. (x -11)(x -23) = 0 . . . . . . . factor
.. x = 11 or 23

The dimensions of the rectangle are 11 cm by 23 cm.

One hose can fill a small swimming pool in 65 minutes. A larger hose can fill the pool in 35 minutes. How long will it take the
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

22.75 minutes or 22 minutes 45 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, this is a working together question. Let’s walk through it together!

Firstly, let’s say the total volume of the swimming pool is x sq.meters

Now, the rate of the smaller hose would be x/65 while that of the larger will be x/35

Now, their combined rate would be x/65 + x/35 = 100x/2275

Now, since the volume is x, the time taken is simply, the volume divided by the joint rate. That is mathematically equal to x divided by 100x/2275

x * 2275/100x = 2275/100 = 22.75 minutes or 22 minutes 45 seconds

The spiders and ants in Aunt Mellys attic have a total of 152 legs and 22 heads. Spiders have 8 legs and ants have 6 legs. How m
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

10 spiders and 12 ants

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to create two equations

s = # of spiders

a = # of ants

s + a = 22 heads

since each spider and ant has one head

8s + 6a = 152 legs

since every spider has 8 legs and every ant has 6

s + a = 22 can be turned into s = 22 - a

now use substitution

8(22 - a) + 6a = 152

176 - 8a + 6a = 152

176 - 2a = 152

24 = 2a

a = 12

now that you have the number of ants you can solve for the number of spiders

s + a = 22

s + 12 = 22

s = 10
