It would take 5 because they could do it twice as fast
A) The length of the longer leg is x-1
b) Based on the area, the other leg is 2*30/(x -1). Based on the Pythagorean theorem, the other leg is √(x^2 -(x -1)^2).
c) Equating the two expressions for the shorter leg, we have
.. 60/(x -1) = √(2x -1)
.. 3600/(x -1)^2 = (2x -1)
.. (2x -1)(x^2 -2x +1) = 3600
.. 2x^3 -5x^2 +4x -3601 = 0
d) There is one positive real root, at x=13. A graphical solution works well.
The three sides of the triangle are 5 in, 12 in, 13 in.
_____
5-12-13 is a well-known Pythagorean triple. It is the next smallest one after 3-4-5.
QUESTION A
The total number of bottles Ella collected is

The number of bottles that are plastic is

The percentage of bottles that are plastic is




Therefore 38% of the bottles are plastic.
QUESTION B
The total number of bottles that are glass is

The total number of bottles Ella collected is

The percentage of bottles that is glass is




Therefore 62% of the bottles are glass
Answer:
<h2>48 is the total value of y</h2>
X=3
x is the width of the sidewalk
The outside dimensions of the walkway are 12 + 2x by 8 + 2x
The total area is (12 + 2x)(8 + 2x)
The total area minus the area of the pool should be equal to the area of the pool
