The width of the pathway is 3m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the pathway be 'w'

The area will be 130 square meters

The dimensions of the garden is 10 x 7

Area = (10+w) (7+w)

130 = 70 + 17w + w^2

w^2 + 17w - 60 = 0

w^2 +20w - 3w - 60 = 0

w ( w + 20) - 3 ( w + 20) = 0

(w + 20) (w - 3) = 0

w = -20 ( or) w = 3

w is the width and cannot be negative.

So, w = 3 meters

The width of the pathway is 3m

A puzzle in the form of a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle. The vertices of the quadrilateral divide the circle into four
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Therefore,

∠A = 30°

∠B = 60°

∠C = 150°

∠D = 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A puzzle in the form of a quadrilateral is inscribed in a circle.

The vertices A ,B ,C ,D of the quadrilateral divide the circle into four arcs in a ratio of 1 : 2 : 5 : 4.

Let the common multiple be "x" then the angles will be

∠A = 1x

∠B = 2x

∠C = 5x

∠D = 4x

To Find:

The angle measures of the quadrilateral = ?

Solution:

In a Quadrilateral inscribed in a Circle,

Sum of the measure of all the angles in a Quadrilateral is 360°

m\angle A +m\angle B +m\angle C +m\angle D=360

Substituting the values we get

x+2x+5x+4x=360\\\\12x=360\\\\x=\dfrac{360}{12}=30

Therefore the measures are

∠A = 30°

∠B = 2 × 30 = 60°

∠C = 5 × 30 = 150°

∠D = 4 × 30 = 120°

Therefore,

∠A = 30°

∠B = 60°

∠C = 150°

∠D = 120°

Hi there!

Answer:

 A. 7x² - 9x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you simply take away the parentheses, you get:

3x² - 4x + 7 + 4x² - 5x - 12

Then, just add them all together, and you get:

  A. 7x² - 9x - 5

Let me know if you have any questions!
