We are given a relationship between the sides of a rectangle, that is, the length of one of its sides is 5 less two times its width, and we are asked to find an expression for the area. Let's remember that the area of a rectangle is equal to the product of the length of its side by its width. Let "w" be the length of the rectangle and "L" its lenght, then the area is given by the following formula:
We can use the relationship given in the problem, that is, its length being five less two times its width, that is:
Replacing in the formula for the area we get:
Now we use the distributive law:
Answer:
(a)80 feet
(b)$120,000
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part A</u>
<u>Intersecting Secant-Tangent Theorem</u>
If a tangent segment and a secant segment are drawn to a circle from an exterior point, then the square of the measure of the tangent segment is equal to the product of the measures of the secant segment and its external secant segment.
In the attached diagram, the theorem applied is:
Comparing with our diagram:
|AX|=30 feet
|UX|=10 feet
Length of the Bridge,L
Therefore:
900=10(L+10)
L+10=900/10
L+10=90
L=90-10=80 feet
Length of the Bridge=80 feet
<u>Part B</u>
If each foot costs $1500
Cost of the bridge=$1500*80=$120,000
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the sentence into an inequality.
The product of y and 5 is less than --22
5y<-22
Since -22 is greater
Answer:
If you round 2.549 miles to 3, you are rounding it to the nearest ones place(whole number). 2.549 rounded to the nearest tenth, however, is 2.5 because 2.549 is being rounded to the tenth decimal place.
