Given:
A bird was sitting 16 feet from the base of an oak tree and flew 20 feet to reach the top of the tree.
To find:
The length of the tree.
Solution:
A bird was sitting 16 feet from the base of an oak tree.
Vertical distance between bird and base = 16 feet
Then the bird flew 20 feet to reach the top of the tree.
Now, the vertical distance between bird and base = (16+20) feet
So, length of the oak tree is it the sum of 16 feet and 20 feet.
feet
feet
Therefore, the length of the oak tree is 36 feet.
Answer:
Length = 18.099 ft
Width = 11.049 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
let the length of the field be x ft
and the width be y ft
as per the condition given in problem
x=2y-4 -----------(A)
Also the area is given as 200 sqft
Hence
xy=200
Hence from A we get
y(2y-4)=200
taking 2 as GCF out
2y(y-2)=200
Dividing both sides by 2 we get


subtracting 100 from both sides

Now we solve the above equation with the help of Quadratic formula which is given in the image attached with this for any equation in form

Here in our case
a=1
b=-1
c=-100
Putting those values in the formula and solving them for y


Solving first





Solving second one






Which is wrong as the width can not be in negative
Our width of the field is
y=11.099
Hence the length will be
x=2y-4
x=2(11.049)-4
x=22.099-4
x=18.099
Hence our length x and width y :
Length = 18.099 ft
Width = 11.049 ft
Answer:
2/-5
Step-by-step explanation:
(-2) - (-4) = 2
(-6) - (-1) = -5

Answer:
65.57 should be the correct answer!
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the whole work I did, hope this helps!
100 - 17 = 83
79 x 0.83 = 65.57
