A rectangular Corn Hole area at the Recreation Center has a width of 5 feet and a length of 10 feet. If

inysia [295]

Answer:

2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the uniform amount added to each side

we know that

The algebraic expression that represent this situation is

$(5+x)(10+x)=84$

solve for x

Apply distributive property

$50+ 5x+10x+x^2=84\\x^2+15x-34=0$

solve the quadratic c equation

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

$ax^{2} +bx+c=0$

is equal to

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}$

in this problem we have

$x^2+15x-34=0$

$a=1\\b=15\\c=-34$

substitute in the formula

$x=\frac{-15\pm\sqrt{15^{2}-4(1)(-34)}} {2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-15\pm\sqrt{361}} {2}$

$x=\frac{-15\pm19} {2}$

$x=\frac{-15\pm19} {2}=2$

$x=\frac{-15\pm19} {2}=-17$

therefore

The solution is x=2 ft

Which set of numbers could be the length of the sides

Svetllana [295]

Answer: Choice C) {6, 9, 12}

=======================================================

Explanation:

Something like choice A can't form a triangle because the first two sides add to 6+9 = 15, which is <u>not</u> longer than the third side 15. We need to have x+y > z to be true. The same goes for choice B as well because 3+3 = 6 is too small compared to the third side 7. Choice D is similar to choice A.

In short, we can rule out choices A, B, and D.

The only thing left is choice C. Picking any two sides leads to having that sum be larger than the third side

6+9 = 15 which is larger than 12
9+15 = 24 which is larger than 6
6+15 = 21 which is larger than 9

So the conditions of the triangle inequality theorem work out here, and we have a triangle.

The leopard population in an African wildlife area is currently 17. Due to a new conservation effort, conservationists hope the

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

$a{_n} = 17 + (n - 1)4$ for n = 1, 2, . . . , 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an arithmetic sequence, because the population is said to increase by 4 animals yearly. The formula for the nth term in an arithmetic sequence is given by:

$a{_n} = a{_1} + (n - 1)d$ where $a_n$ is the nth term, [/tex]a_1[/tex] is the first term, n = 1, 2, . . . and d is the common difference.
