Answer:

The answer to your question is length = 19 and width = 12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Perimeter = 62 ft

Width = length - 7

Process

1.- Write equations that help to solve this problem

    Perimeter = P = 2w + 2l

                         w = l - 7

2.- Substitution

                       62 = 2w + 2l           Equation l

                         w = l - 7                 Equation ll

Solve the system of equations by substitution

- Substitute equation ll in equation l

                      62 = 2(l - 7) + 2l

-Simplification

                      62 = 2l - 14 + 2l

                      62 + 14 = 4l

                              76 = 4l

                                 l = 76/4

                                 l = 19 ft

-Find w

                       w = 19 - 7

                       w = 12 ft

Find the area of the shaded regions.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

A = A_c-A_t=4\pi -8=4.5664cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the shaded region can be calculated as the area of the semicircle less the area of the right triangle.

The area of the right triangle can be calculated as:

A_t=\frac{b*h}{2} =\frac{LM*MN}{2}

Where LM and MN have the same length because the internal angles are L=45°, M=90°, and N=45°. So the area is:

A_t=\frac{4*4}{2}=8

The diameter of the circle can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem as:

D=\sqrt{(LM)^2+(MN)^2} =\sqrt{4^2+4^4}=4\sqrt{2}

So, the radius is r=2\sqrt{2}

Finally, the area of the semicircle is:

A_c=\frac{\pi*r^2 }{2}=\frac{\pi*(2\sqrt{2})^2  }{2}=4\pi

So, the area of the shaded region is:

A = A_c-A_t=4\pi -8=4.5664cm^2

For the equation 3x - 5y = -3, what is the value ofy when x is 1?<br> 6/5<br> -6/5<br> 5/6
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

y = 6/5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 5y = -3

Let x =1

3(1) - 5y = -3

3-5y = -3

Subtract 3 from each side

3-3-5y = -3-3

-5y = -6

Divide each side by -5

-5y/-5 = -6/-5

y = 6/5

There are 10 boys trying out for the track team. Truman and Ryan are the two fastest runners. If the coach randomly picks two bo
vichka [17]
10 kids total

picking Truman would be 1 out of 10 or 1/10

then there would be 9 kids left so picking Ryan would be 1 out of 9 or 1/9

the probability of picking both would be 1/10 * 1/9 = 1/90
