Answer:
length = 11 yard
width = 5 yard
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle = L W
where A = 55 yard
L = 3W - 4
find: Length
width
solution:
A = L W
55 = (3W - 4) W
55 = 3W² - 4W
3W² - 4W - 55 = 0
use quadratic equation to solve for W:
W = <u> - (-4) ± √(-4)² - 4(3)-55 </u>
2(3)
W = 5, W = -11/3
substitute W=5 to equation L = 3W - 4 to solve for L
L = 3W - 4
L = 3(5) - 4
L = 15 - 4
L = 11
therefore, the dimensions of a rectangle:
length = 11 yard
width = 5 yard
Answer:
(0,-4) (5,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-5y=20
First, we must put the equation into slope intercept form: y= mx+b
5y=4x-20=y=4/5x-4
The y intercept, by definition, is b. In this scenario, b is -4.
One ordered pair that works is (0,-4).
Also, we can find the ordered pair for the x intercept. By definition, the x intercept is the value of x when y equals zero. hence, we substitute 0 for y and then we can find an ordered pair that works and solve for x!:
- 0=4/5(x)-4= 4=4/5x
- 4x=20
- x=5
Therefore, (5,0) works as well!
Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2
2. You are trying to find x which is c^2
so plug in the other numbers to the other letters. 9^2 + 17^2 = c^2
9^2= 81. 17^2= 289
81 + 289 = 370
370= c^2
Now all you have to do is square root the number
*square root sign* 370
19.24
c = 19.24
So, x = 19.24
X= 3r+5/2 is the answer I believe
