A new building is being constructed at UT Austin. It is 200 feet tall, and has a
Mariana [72]

Answer:

Walkway is 3 feet wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the building is 150 ft

width of the building is 100 ft

walkway is x ft wide.

Total area(around and including the building) = 16536 square feet

Solution:

Length of the total area will be = length of the building + width of walkway from 2 sides = 150 +2x

Width of the total area will be = width of the building + width of walkway from 2 sides = 100 +2x

Now Total area(around and including the building) = Length of the total area\times Width of the total area

(150+2x)\times(100+2x)=16536\\15000+300x+200x+4x^2=16536\\500x+4x^2=16536-15000\\4(125x+x^2)=1536\\125x+x^2= \frac{1536}{4}=384\\

x^2+125x-384=0\\x^2-3x+128x-384=0\\x(x-3)+128(x-3)=0\\(x-3)(x+128)=0\\

Now solving for both equation we get.

x+128=0\\x=-128\\x-3=0\\x=3

Now, We get 2 values for x which -128 and 3 but the width of the building can't be in negative value hence we will consider value of x be 3.

∴ Width of the walkway is 3 ft.

Betsy is saying for a bird cage. She saves $1 the first week, $3 the second week, $9 the third week, and so on. All together how
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Betsy will save $121 in 5 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that Betsy's savings are 3 times the saving of her last week. We can see that this is an geometric sequence as 1,3,9,..

To find the sum of our geometric sequence we will use S_{n}=a\cdot \frac{1-r^{n}}{1-r}, where n is number of terms we are taking sum of, a is first term of sequence and r is common ratio of the sequence.

S_{5}=1\cdot \frac{1-3^{5}}{1-3}

S_{5}=\frac{1-243}{-2}

S_{n}=\frac{-242}{-2}=121

Therefore, Betsy will save $121 in 5 weeks.

A company will need 25,000 in 7 years for a new additon. To meet this goal, the company deposits money into an account today tha
Mrac [35]
You can use the simple interest formula 
P = irt

We need P, which is the primary (or principal) investment, and we know that:

rate = 3% (0.03)
time = 7
i = $25000

So, just plug in and solve:
I = 25000(0.03)(7)
I = 5250

The company needs to invest $5250 today, to make $25000 in 7 years.
