Alexei wants to hang a mirror in his boat and put a frame around it. The mirror and frame must have an area of 19.25 square feet

. The mirror is 3 feet wide and 5 feet long. Which quadratic equation can be used to determine the thickness of the frame, x?. . A. 2x2 + 8x - 19.25 = 0. B. 3x2 + 5x - 19.25 = 0. C. 4x2 + 16x - 4.25 = 0. D. 4x2 + 16x + 15 = 0

Let

x---------> the thickness of the frame in feet

At-------> Area of the mirror and the frame in square feet

we know that

At=19.25ft^{2} ------> equation 1

At=(3+2x)*(5+2x)\\ At=3*5+3*2x+5*2x+2x*2x\\ At=15+6x+10x+4x^{2} \\ At=4x^{2} +16x+15--------> equation 2

equate equation 1 and equation 2

19.25=4x^{2} +16x+15\\ 4x^{2} +16x+15-19.25=0\\ 4x^{2} +16x-4.25=0

therefore

the answer is the option

C. 4x2 + 16x - 4.25 = 0

The answer is letter <span>C. 4x2 + 16x - 4.25 = 0.

The area of the mirror and frame together is 19.25 square feet. You deduct that with the area of the mirror (3ft x 5ft = 15ft) and you have 4.25 square feet.

Alright, so for AB and CD to be parallel, CX and DX would have to be equal, as is with AX and BX. In addition, for CD and AB to be parallel, all sides in both triangles are either equal or not all sides in even one triangle are equal. Therefore, CD is not 3. In addition, two sides of a triangle combined must be greater than the third, so that leaves 5, 4, and 2 for CD. If it was 5, that would mean that all sides are equal, so that leaves 4 and 2. However, I don't see anything to prove either one right, sorry:/

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the measure of the vertex angle ∠ABD of an isosceles triangle

we know that

An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles

In this problem

∠ABD=∠BAD= ----> the angles of the base are equals

Find the measure of the vertex angle

∠ABD= ------> the sum of the internal angles of a triangle is equal to

Step 2

Find the measure of the angle  ∠CBD in the equilateral triangle

we know that

A equilateral triangle has three  equal sides and three equal angles

The measure of the internal angle in a equilateral triangle is

so

∠CBD=

Step 3

Find the measure of the angle ∠ABC

∠ABC=∠ABD+∠DBC

substitute the values

∠ABC=

therefore

the answer is

the measure of the angle ∠ABC is

I’ve done question a. But can you help me on b and c
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b) Diameter of Mercury = 4.88 * 10³ = 4.88 * 1000 = 4880 km

Radius of Mercury = 4880÷ 2 = 2440 km

c) Mass of Jupiter = 1.898 * 10²⁷ = 18.98 * 10²⁶

Mass of Saturn = 5.68 * 10²⁶

Difference  = 18.98 * 10²⁶ - 5.68*10²⁶

                   = (18.98 - 5.68) * 10²⁶

                   = 13.30 * 10²⁶

                   = 1.330 * 10²⁷
