A=3 and c=2 10a - 3 - 5c

Now there is a square city of unknown size with a gate at the center of each side. There is a tree 20 b from the north gate. Tha

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The length of each side of the city is 250b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a = 20$ --- tree distance from north gate

$b =14$ --- movement from south gate

$c = 1775$ --- movement in west direction from (b)

See attachment for illustration

Required

Find x

To do this, we have:

$\triangle ADE \sim \triangle ACB$ --- similar triangles

So, we have the following equivalent ratios

$AE:DE = AB:CB$

Where:

$AE = 20\\ DE = x/2 \\ AB = 20 + x + 14 \\ CB = 1775$

Substitute these in the above equation

$20:x/2 = 20 + x + 14: 1775$

$20:x/2 = x + 34: 1775$

Express as fraction

$\frac{20}{x/2} = \frac{x + 34}{1775}$

$\frac{40}{x} = \frac{x + 34}{1775}$

Cross multiply

$x *(x + 34) = 1775 * 40$

Open bracket

$x^2 + 34x = 71000$

Rewrite as:

$x^2 + 34x - 71000 = 0$

Expand

$x^2 + 284x -250x - 71000 = 0$

Factorize

$x(x + 284) -250(x + 284)= 0$

Factor out x + 284

$(x - 250)(x + 284)= 0$

Split

$x - 250 = 0 \ or\ x + 284= 0$

Solve for x

$x = 250 \ or\ x =- 284$

x can't be negative;

So:

$x = 250$

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!Find the length of the missing sides. Round your answers to the nearest tenth. (Hint: Always make sure to labe

Reptile [31]

Answer:

(9.37, 17.7) ; (14.10, 19.42); (20.8, 22.3)

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first picture :

The missing angle :

180 - (32 + 90)

180 - (122) = 58°

To obtain the length of side x:

From ptthagoras:

Tan58° = opposite / Adjacent

1.6003345 = 15 / x

x = 15 / 1.6003345

= 9.37

y = sqrt(15^2 + 9.37^2)

y = sqrt(312.7969)

y = 17.7m

2)

Missing angle :

From ptthagoras :

Sin54° = opposite / hypotenus

0.8090169 = y/ 24

y = 0.8090169 * 24

y = 19.42

x = sqrt(24^2 - 19.42^2)

x = sqrt(198.8636)

x = 14.10

3)

Sin21° = opposite / hypotenus

0.3583679 = 8 /y

y = 8 / 0.3583679

y = 22.3

x = sqrt(22.3^2 - 8^2)

x = sqrt(433.29)

x = 20.8

Is domain of f(x,y) = 1 + (4 -y^2)^1/2 open, closed or neither<br><br> is it bounded or unbounded?

omeli [17]

Answer:

Closed and Bounded.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

1) Let's start by finding the values in which the function is defined. Remember that this can be rewritten:

$f(x,y) = 1 + (4 -y^2)^{\frac{1}{2}} \:id\:est\:f(x,y)=1+\sqrt{(4 -y^2)}$

Since every quadratic root are defined for values $\geq$ 0 then, this help us to understand that we need calculate what interval this Domain is:

$4-y^{2} \geq 0\\4-y^{2}-4\geq -4\\-y^{2}\geq-4 \\y^{2}\leq4\\-2\leq y\leq 2$

$D=[-2,2]$

2) Graphically speaking, the domain is closed. For the values -2 and 2 are included, and bounded.

Bounded functions have all of their points contained by some circle origin centered. Check it out below.

The perimeter of a rectangle can be found using the formula 2l + 2w, where l represents the length of the rectangle and w repres

Semenov [28]

Answer:

The perimeter is 104

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a peremeter is 2 * length + 2 * width.

Substitute the length and width for the given values.

2 * length + 2 * width

2 * 32 + 2 * 20

64 + 40
