We are interested in the dimensions of a certain square a rectangle had length triple the side of this square and width two unit

s less than the side of this square. If the two areas are equal, what are the squares dimensions (W x H)

Let s be the side length of the square. The dimensions of the rectangle are three times the side of the square (i.e. 3s), and two less than the side of the square (i.e. s-2).

So, the area of this rectangle is

3s(s-2)=3s^2-6s

The area of the square is s^2, and we know that the two areas are the same, so we have

3s^2-6s=s^2 \iff 2s^2-6s=0 \iff 2s(s-3)=0 \iff s=0 \lor s=3

The solution s=0 would lead to the extreme case where the rectangle and the square are actually a point, so we accept the solution s=3.

a car dealer is caculating the list price for a used car. the dealer takes the initial price of 5the car and adds $259 dollars f
Bas_tet [7]

Add the 259 to the initial price:

10,000 + 259 = 10,259

Increase that price by 25%, so multiply by 1.25:

10259 x 1.25 = 12,823.75

The price is then increased by another 10%, multiply by 1.10:

12,823.75 x 1.10 = 14,106.13

List price = $14,106.13

Math help please and thank you

Answer:

Both m^2 and cm^2 are given below. Take your pick.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = L * W

L = 1.57 m * 100 cm / 1 meter = 157 cm

W = 45 cm

Area = 157 cm * 45 cm = 7065 cm^2

In meters, the width would be 45 cm * 1 m / 100 cm = 0.45 m

Area = L * W

L = 1.57 m

W = 0.45 M

Area = 1.57 * 0.45

Area = 0.7065 m^2

Remark
The general equation for an ellipse is
\frac{x^2}{a^2}+ \frac{y^2}{b^2}=1 

At the center, the the point is 0,27

Solving for the 
\frac{0}{a^2} +  \frac{27^2}{b^2} = 1
or b^2= 27^2 * 1
Taking the square root of both sides 
b = 27

Now we need to use one more piece of information
The second point is (24,9) what that means is at the point x = 24, y = 9

Solving for that 
\frac{24^2}{a^2}+\frac{9^2}{27^2}=1

576/a^2 + 81/729 = 1    Subtract 81/729 from both sides
576/a^2 = 1 - 81/729 = 576/a^2 = (729 - 81)/729 = 648 /729

576/a^2 = 648/729     Cross multiply

648 a^2 = 729 * 576   Divide by 648
a^2 = 648            

Full equation for the ellipse and answer is

\frac{x^2}{648}+ \frac{y^2}{729} = 1

BRAINLIEST ANSWER (please do it right)

Answer:

55 performances

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation will be the total cost. The total cost has $88,000 already and then $5,900 is added with each performance. So the equation would be 88,000+5,900x because x will represent the number of performances.

y = 88,000 + 5,900x

The next equation will be how much the performances earn. If they earn $7,500 with each performance then the equation will be 7,500x, with x representing the number of performances

y = 7,500x

Now set the equations equal to each other and solve for x

7,500x = 88,000 + 5,900x

1,600x = 88,000

x = 55

They need to have 55 performances for the cost and the revenue to break even.
