Answer:

The Width = 28 inches

The Height = 21 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that:

The width and height of an older 35-inch television whose screen has an aspect ratio of 4:3

Using Pythagoras Theorem

Width² + Height² = Diagonal²

Since we known that the size of a television is the length of the diagonal of its screen in inches.

Hence, for this new TV

Width² + Height² = 35²

We are given ratio: 4:3 as aspect ratio

Width = 4x

Height = 3x

(4x)² +(3x)² = 35²

= 16x² + 9x² = 35²

25x² = 1225

x² = 1225/25

x² = 49

x = √49

x = 7

Hence, for the 35 inch tv set

The Width = 4x

= 4 × 7

= 28 inches.

The Height = 3x

= 3 × 7

= 21 inches

Some students are working together to draw a picture of a playground.
vodomira [7]

From the information provided by the statement, you know that

*Ann draws 2/16 of the playground

*Susan draws 6/16 of the playground because she draws 3 times as much as Ann so

3\cdot\frac{2}{16}=\frac{3}{1}\cdot\frac{2}{16}=\frac{6}{16}

*Louise draws 3/16 because she draws half as much as Susan, so

\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{6}{16}=\frac{6}{32}=\frac{2\cdot3}{2\cdot16}=\frac{3}{16}

*Sam draws 2/16 because she draws 1 less section than Louise

\frac{3}{16}-\frac{1}{16}=\frac{2}{16}

Now, let x be the fraction of the playground that still needs to be drawn. Then, you have

\begin{gathered} \frac{2}{16}+\frac{6}{16}+\frac{3}{16}+\frac{2}{16}+x=\frac{16}{16} \\ \text{ Add similar terms} \\ \frac{13}{16}+x=\frac{16}{16} \\ \text{ Subtract }\frac{13}{16}\text{from both sides of the equation} \\ \frac{13}{16}-\frac{13}{16}+x=\frac{16}{16}-\frac{13}{16} \\ x=\frac{3}{16} \end{gathered}

Therefore, 3/16 of the playground still needs to be drawn.
