Width = W

Length = 2 times the width plus 3 feet = 2W + 3

Area of triangle A = L * W

A = W (2W + 3)

20 = 2W^2 + 3W

2W^2 + 3W - 20 = 0

(W + 4) (2W - 5) = 0

W + 4 = 0; W = - 4 (width cannot be negative, excluded)

2W - 5 = 0

2W = 5

W = 2.5

L = 2W + 3 = 2(2.5) + 3 = 8

Answer:

Width = 2.5 feet and Length = 8 feet

Hope it helps.

A baseball player has made 32 free throws in 45 attempts for current success rate of 71%. How many consecutive free throws must

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer: The player need to make 2 consecutive free throws to raise the average to 75%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of extra consecutive free throws to raise the average to 75% be 'x'.

Number of free throws already taken = 32

Number of attempts = 45

According to question, it becomes,

$\dfrac{32+x}{45}=0.75\\32+x=45\times 0.75\\\\32+x=33.75\\\\x=33.75-32\\\\x=1.75$

Hence, the player need to make 2 consecutive free throws to raise the average to 75%.

They building in the city has a rectangular base. The length of the base measures 60 ft less than twice the width. The perimeter

wariber [46]

Answer: the length of the base is 290ft

The width of the base is 175 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of the building is rectangular in shape.

Let L represent the length of the base of the building.

Let W represent the width of the base of the building.

The length of the base measures 60 ft less than twice the width. This means that

L = 2W - 60 - - - - - - - - -1

The perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as 2(length + width).

The perimeter of this base is 930ft. It means that

2(L + W) = 930

L + W = 930/2 = 465- - - - - - 2

Substituting equation 1 into equation 2 , it becomes

2W - 60 + W = 465

3W = 465 + 60 = 525

W = 525/3 = 175

L = 465 - W = 465 - 175

L = 290

At a particular restaurant, each onion ring has 65 calories and each slider has 250 calories. A combination meal with onion ring

andre [41]

Answer:

The number of onion rings is 3 in the combination meal and the number of sliders is 2 in the combination meal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

At a particular restaurant, each onion ring has 65 calories and each slider has 250 calories. A combination meal with onion rings and sliders has a total of 5 onion rings and sliders altogether and contains 695 calories.

Now, to find the number of onion rings in the combination meal and the number of sliders in the combination meal.

Let the number of onion rings in the combination meal be $x.$

And let the number of sliders in the combination meal be $y.$

So, the total number of onion rings and sliders are:

$x+y=5\\\\y=5-x\ \ \ .....(1)$

Now, the total number of calories each onion rings and sliders has:

$x(65)+y(250)=695$

Substituting the value of $y$ from equation (1) we get:

$x(65)+(5-x)(250)=695\\\\65x+1250-250x=695\\\\1250-185x=695$

Subtracting both sides by 1250 we get:

$-185x=-555$

Dividing both sides by -185 we get:

$x=3.$

The number of onion rings in the combination meal = 3.

Now, substituting the value of $x$ in equation (1) we get:

$y=5-x\\\\y=5-3\\\\y=2.$

The number of sliders in the combination meal = 2.

Hence, the number of onion rings is 3 in the combination meal and the number of sliders is 2 in the combination meal.
