A rectangular pool has a sidewalk around it. The pool measures 6 feet by 10 feet and the total area of the pool and sidewalk is
Otrada [13]

Answer:

width of the sidewalk = 1 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the pool = length × width

Length = 10 feet

Width = 6 feet

Area of the pool = length × width

= 10 feet × 6 feet

= 60 feet²

Area of the pool = 60 feet²

Total area = Area of the pool + Area of sidewalk

96 feet² = 60 feet ² + Area of sidewalk

Area of sidewalk = 96 feet² - 60 feet ²

Area of sidewalk = 36 feet²

Length of pool + sidewalk = 10 + 2x

width of pool + sidewalk = 6 + 2x

( 10 + 2 x ) ( 6 + 2 x ) -60 = 36

60 + 20x + 12x + 4x² - 60 = 36

4x² + 32x - 36 = 0

4x² + 36x - 4x - 36 = 0

4x (x + 9) -4(x + 9) = 0

(4x - 4) (x + 9) = 0

4(x - 1) (x + 9) = 0

(x - 1) = 0 (x + 9) = 0

x = 1 or x = -9

The width of the side walk can't be a negative value

Therefore, width of the sidewalk = 1 feet

Someone please help me with this math problem?

Answer:

The length of the shortest side of the triangle is 10 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>a</em> be the shortest side of the isosceles triangle and <em>b</em> be the two congruent sides.

The congruent sides <em>b</em> are each one unit longer than the shortest side. Hence:

b=a+1

The perimeter of the isosceles triangle is given by:

\displaystyle P_{\Delta}=b+b+a=2b+a

This is equivalent to the perimeter of a square whose side lengths are two units shorter than the shortest side of the triangle. Let the side length of the square be <em>s</em>. Hence:

s=a-2

The perimeter of the square is:

\displaystyle P_{\text{square}}=4s=4(a-2)

Since the two perimeters are equivalent:

2b+a=4(a-2)

Substitute for <em>b: </em>

<em />2(a+1)+a=4(a-2)<em />

Solve for <em>a</em>. Distribute:

2a+2+a=4a-8

Simplify:

3a+2=4a-8

Hence:

a=10

The length of the shortest side of the triangle is 10 units.

Raymond just got done jumping at super bounce trampoline center. The total cost of his session was $43.25. He had to pay a $7 en
fgiga [73]

1.25t+7=43.25 can be used to determine the number of minutes that Raymond was on the trampoline.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total cost for session = $43.25

Entrance fee = $7

Charges per minute = $1.25

Let,

t be the number of minutes raymond was on Trampoline

Total cost for session = entrance fee + Charges per minute * No. of minutes

43.25=7+1.25*t\\1.25t+7=43.25

1.25t+7=43.25 can be used to determine the number of minutes that Raymond was on the trampoline.

If Janelle originally started 575
Ierofanga [76]

Given that Janelle travels at 65 mph. the number of more hours it will

take her to reach her destination is approximately 5 hours.

<h3>How can the time to reach her destination be calculated?</h3>

Possible part of the question that appear missing are;

The distance Janelle drove in 4 hours = 260 miles

The distance from which she started = 575 miles

Required:

The number of extra hours it will take her to reach her destination

Solution:

The remaining distance = 575 miles - 260 miles = 315 miles

Speed =  \mathbf{ \dfrac{Distance}{Time}}

Janelle's \ average \ speed = \dfrac{260 \, miles }{4 \, hours} = \mathbf{ 65 \, mph}

Time = \dfrac{Distance}{Speed}

Which gives;

Time \ to \ reach \ her \ destination = \dfrac{315 \, miles}{65 \, mph} = 4\frac{11}{13} \, hours \approx \mathbf{ 5 \, hours}

The time it takes Janelle to reach her destination ≈<u> 5 hours</u>
