The Davidson family wants to expand its rectangular patio, which currently measures 15 ft by 12 ft. They want to extend the leng

th and width the same amount to increase the total area of the patio by 160 ft2. Which quadratic equation best models the situation?
A = lw

(15)(12) + (x)(x) = (15)(12) + 160
 (15x)(12x) = (15)(12) + 160
2(15 + x) + 2(12 + x) = (15)(12) + 160
(15 + x)(12 + x) = (15)(12) + 160

Answer:

Option 4 - (15+x)(12+x)=(15)(12)+160

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The Davidson family wants to expand its rectangular patio, which currently measures 15 ft by 12 ft. They want to extend the length and width the same amount to increase the total area of the patio by 160 ft sq.

To find : Which quadratic equation best models the situation?  

Solution :

Dimension of rectangular patio is

Length = 15 ft.

Width = 12 ft.

Let x be the expansion of length and width of the rectangular patio.

So, The new length of the rectangular patio is (x+15).

The new width of the rectangular patio is (x+12).

We know, Area of rectangle = Length × Width

According to question,

They want to extend the length and width the same amount to increase the total area of the patio by 160 ft sq.

(12+x)(15+x)=160+15\times 12

180+12x+15x+x^2=160+180

180+27x+x^2=340

x^2+27x-160=0        

Therefore, The required quadratic equation is (12+x)(15+x)=160+15\times 12

Hence, Option 4 is correct.

Round 128 to the nearest ten
SSSSS [86.1K]
130, is the answer.. so here's me having to come back and to explain,because this questions is SO hard.
They ask to round to the ten.
128
  ^This is ten, so we look to our right which is eight, is higher than 5. 5 is counted as higher. So 8 is over five and if we round 28, it's 30.
WOW, fascinating.
Thanks Brainly's "monitors" such help. -_-

Speeding: On a stretch of Interstate-89, car speed is a normally distributed variable with a mean of 69.1 mph and a standard dev
Alborosie

Answer: 11.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  On a stretch of Interstate-89, car speed is a normally distributed variable with \mu=69.1 mph and \sigma=3.3 mph.

Let x be a random variable that represents the car speed.

Since , z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

z-score corresponds x = 73 , z=\dfrac{73-69.1}{3.3}\approx1.18

Required probability :

\text{P-value }: P(x>73)=P(z>1.18)\\\\=1-P(z

[using z-value table.]

Hence, the approximate percentage of cars are traveling faster than you = 11.9%
