Let the width be x
width = x
length = 2x - 3

Perimeter = x + 2x - 3 + x + 2x - 3 = 6x - 6 

6x - 6 = 78
6x = 78 + 6
6x = 84
x = 14 cm

2x - 3 = 2(14) - 3 = 25cm

The width is 14cm and the length is 25cm

3. Two cars are parked, 150m apart, and on opposite sides of a building. A camera on the top of the building rotates and can vie
allsm [11]

Answer:

<em>The building is 61.5 m tall</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The image below is a diagram where all the given distances and angles are shown. We have additionally added some variables:

h = height of the building

a, b = internal angles of each triangle

x  = base of each triangle

The angles a and b can be easily found by subtracting the given angles from 90° since they are complementary angles, thus:

a = 90° - 37° = 53°

b = 90° - 42° = 48°

Now we apply the tangent ratio on both triangles separately:

\displaystyle \tan a=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}

\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150-x}{h}

\displaystyle \tan 48^\circ=\frac{x}{h}

From the last equation:

x=h.\tan 48^\circ

Substituting into the first equation:

\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150-h.\tan 48^\circ}{h}

Operating on the right side:

\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ=\frac{150}{h}-\tan 48^\circ

Rearranging:

\displaystyle \tan 53^\circ+\tan 48^\circ=\frac{150}{h}

Solving for h:

\displaystyle h=\frac{150}{\tan 53^\circ+\tan 48^\circ}

Calculating:

h = 61.5 m

The building is 61.5 m tall

suppose y varies directly with x, an dy = 10 when x =3. what direct variation equations relates x and y?
Ratling [72]

The direct variation equation relates x and y is y = \frac{10}{3} x

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct variation is when one variable is equal to a constant times another variable

If y varies directly with x, then

  • y ∝ x
  • y = k x is the equation of variation
  • k is the constant of variation

∵ y varies directly with x

∵ y ∝ x

∴ y = k x

∵ y = 10 when x = 3

- Substitute these values in the equation above to find k

∴ 10 = k(3)

∴ 10 = 3 k

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ k = \frac{10}{3}

∴ The equation of variation is y = \frac{10}{3} x

The direct variation equation relates x and y is y = \frac{10}{3} x
