Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

L = 35, W = 25


Discussion:

The attachment shows that

P = 2L + 2W = 120  

and

L = 10 + W


2L + 2W = 120                => Substitute the last equation into the first one

2(10 + W) + 2W = 120    =>

20 + 2W + 2W = 120     => combine like terms

20 + 4W = 120               => subtract 20 from both sides

4W = 120 -20 = 100      => divide both sides by 4

W = 100/4 = 25

Hence, L = 10 + W = 10 + 25 = 35



Thank you,

MrB

Q5.Jumbo is standing on top of a cliff looking at a speed boat out at sea.The vertical of the cliff from the base (sea level) to
Leni [432]

Answer:

A) 150 m

B) 180.28 m

Step-by-step explanation:

A) In order to find the horizontal distance from the base of the cliff to the speed boat, use the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the length of the missing side.

We are told that one of the sides is 80 m and the hypotenuse is 170 m. Therefore,

  • a² + b² = c²
  • (80)² + b² = (170)²
  • b² = 170² - 80²
  • b² = 22500
  • b = 150

The horizontal distance between the base of the cliff and the boat is 150 m.

B) Now, the side that was 80 m is now 100 m (includes the height that the helicopter is above Jumbo). The horizontal distance remains the same, 150 m, but the hypotenuse is different. Solving for the hypotenuse will give us the distance between the helicopter and the speed boat.

  • (100)² + (150)² = c²
  • 32500 = c²
  • 180.28 = c

The distance between the helicopter and the speed boat is 180.28 m.

2.<br> A line goes through the points (0, 10) and (-1, 1).<br> 2a<br> What is the slope of the line?
sashaice [31]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope using the slope formula

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = ( 1 -10)/(-1 -0)

   = -9/-1

   = 9
