Let the width = x feet, then the length = 160 - x  feet.

The area =  x * (160 - x) = 4000

160x - x^2 = 4000

x^2 - 160x + 4000 = 0

x =  [- (-160) +/-  sqrt (160^2 - 3 * 1 * 4000)] / 2

x =   128.98 or 31.01

answer is length = 129 feet and width = 31 feet   ( to nearest foot).

Mark and Jen me at the beach yesterday July 31. Might go to the beach every third day in Django ceviche before three. How many t
Savatey [412]

Answer:

The number times both Mark and Jen will be at the beach on the same day over the next 30 days is 10 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Every third day implies that they both go the beach and then have a two day break, and then go the beach on the day after.

Put simply, every third day implies one day in three days.

Based on the above, the number times both Mark and Jen will be at the beach on the same day over the next 30 days can be calculated by dividing 30 by 3 as follows:

Number times both Mark and Jen will be at the beach = 30 / 3 = 10

Therefore, the number times both Mark and Jen will be at the beach on the same day over the next 30 days is 10 times.
