I would say A. is the correct answer. Definitely a weird one. Hope this helps!
Answer:
Thus the length = 230 and width = 90.
Step-by-step explanation:
Farmer Fernanda wants to put a fence around her rectangular field. The length of the field is 40 feet less than 3 times the width.
She has 320 feet of fencing.
Let the length of the rectangular fence be x and the width of the fence be y.
Then the relation between them is
x = 3y - 40
Also x + y = 320
Solving these equations,
320 - y = 3y - 40
4y = 360
y = 90
x = 230
Thus the length = 230 and width = 90.
We have been given that a huge ice glacier in the Himalayas initially covered an area of 45 square kilo-meters. The relationship between A, the area of the glacier in square kilo-meters, and t, the number of years the glacier has been melting, is modeled by the equation
.
To find the time it will take for the area of the glacier to decrease to 15 square kilo-meters, we will equate
and solve for t as:



Now we will switch sides:

Let us take natural log on both sides of equation.

Using natural log property
, we will get:










Therefore, it will take
years for area of the glacier to decrease to 15 square kilo-meters.
