Answer:

15, 16

Step-by-step explanation:

so, x(x+1)=x+x+1+209.solve this and you get x^2+x=2x=210, x^2-x-210=0, and when you solve this quadratic function, you get x=15, and the other with 16. to check see if 240 is 209 greater than 31, which is so there you have it. Hope you have a happy thanksgiving!

Use proportions.

6 * 5 = 30
5 * 5 = 25

x = 25

The statue is 25 feet tall.

One of Julian's friends also has a rectangular aquarium. The dimensions of his friend's tank are each exactly 1 1/4 times the di

daser333 [38]

Answer:

468.75 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of Julian's tank be x

Let the width of Julian's tank be y

So, Area of Julian's tank= $Length \times Width =xy$

Since we are given that Julian's tank is approximately 300 square inches

So, $xy=300$ --1

Now we are given that The dimensions of his friend's tank are each exactly $1\frac{1}{4} =\frac{5}{4}$ times the dimensions of Julian's tank.

So,length of his friend's tank = $\frac{5}{4}x$

So,width of his friend's tank = $\frac{5}{4}y$

So, Area of his friend's tank= $\frac{5}{4}x \times \frac{5}{4}y$

= $\frac{25}{16}xy$

= $\frac{25}{16}(300)$ (Using 1)

= $468.75$

Hence the approximate area of the rectangular base of his friend's tank is 468.75 square inches.

So, Option D is correct.
