A golden rectangle is a rectangle whose length is approximately 1.6 times its width.the early greeks thought that a rectangle wi

th these dimensions was the most pleasing to the eye and examples of the golden rectangle are found in many early works of art. for​ example, the parthenon in athens contains many examples of golden rectangles. mike hallahan would like to plant a rectangular garden in the shape of a golden rectangle. if he has 7878 feet of fencing​ available, find the dimensions of the garden.

Mike has 78 feet of fencing available for his garden, this is the perimeter (P) of the rectangle:
Perimeter: P=78 feet

The formula of Perimeter is:
P=2(W+L), where W is the width and L is the length, then:

P=78→2(W+L)=78
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
2(W+L)/2=78/2
W+L=39

If the shape is of a golden rectangle, we know:
L=1.6W
Replacing this above:
W+1.6W=39
Adding similar terms:
2.6W=39
Solving for W
2.6W/2.6=39/2.6
W=15 feet

L=1.6W=1.6(15)→L=24 feet

Answer: T<span>he dimensions of the garden are: Width=15 feet and Length=24 feet. </span>

A circle has a diameter with endpoints at -2 + i and -6 -11i. What is the center of the circle?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

- 4 - 5i

Step-by-step explanation:

The centre of the circle is the average of the endpoints

centre = (- 2 + i - 6 - 11i ) ÷ 2

          = (- 8 - 10i ) ÷ 2

         = - 4 - 5i

HELP??????????????????????????/???????????????????????????????????????????????????/??????????A fruit company delivers its fruit
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

small: 6.25

large: 18.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the large boxes as x and the small boxes as y (The weight is the constant).

3x+5y=86

6x+2y=122

Now just solve the systems of equations using either substitution or elimination.

-6x-10y=-172 multiply the whole equation by -2 to eliminate

6x+2y=122, add the equations

-8y=-50

y= 6.25

Plug in y either equation:

3x+5(6.25)=86

3x=86-31.25

3x=54.75

x=18.25

Each small box weighs 6.25 kilograms, each large box weighs 18.25 kilograms, to check plug in the values to the other equation to see if they add up correctly.

If mZDEF = (7x + 4)", mZDEG = (5x + 1)', and mZGEF = 23", find each
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Yoy answer is x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know what ∠GEF is 23°

so you would have to create an equation like this 23+(5x+1)=7x+4

you add 23+1=24 and get 5x+24=7x+4 subtract 5x on both sides

24=2x+4 subtract 4 on both sides

20=2x divide 2 x=10

∠DEF=7(10)=70+4=74

∠DEG=5(10)=50+1=51

To check 51+23=74
