Answer:
Width=10
Length=18
Step-by-step explanation:
The length is 2 feet less then twice the width
Let the width be x.
Then the length is 2x -2 based on the given information. Use this to make an equation since it is known that the area is 180feet squared.
x(2x-2)=180
2x^2 - 2x - 180 = 0
2( x^2 - x - 90) = 0
We now have a factorable quadratic.
2(x+9)(x-10)=0
So by zero product property, x=-9, x=10 Since a measure cannot be negative, -9 is an extraneous solution.
So x=10
Then the width is 10 and the length is 18
Hope this helps! Let me know if it is correct!
Because this is a second degree equation you will have 2 solutions. When you take the square root of a number you have to account for both the positive and negative roots. Since the square root of 289 is 17 then your solutions are +17 and -17.
Their ages are 24 years old each.
(i.) CA = πrl
CA = π (5*13)
CA = 65π
(ii.) TA = πrl + πr^2
TA = 65π + π (5^2)
TA = 65π + 25π
TA = 90π
(iii.) To get the height of the cone, you have to use the Pythagorean theorem. Plug in the radius for a and the slant height for c.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + b^2 = 13^2
25 + b^2 = 169 Height = 12
b^2 = 144
b = 12
(iv.) v = (1/3)πr^2h
v = (1/3)π(5^2)*12
v = (1/3)π(25*12)
v = (1/3)π*300
v = 100π
