another rectangle has length and width in the ratio of 3:2. If the length is increased by eight and the width is increased by 50

%, the ratio of the new perimeter to the original perimeter is 8:5. Find the area of the new rectangle

Answer:

Area of the new rectangle = 148.8 cm square

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the dimensions of the rectangle then the

Perimeter of the Original rectangle= 2(L+B)

= 2 ( 3x+2x) = 2(5x)= 10xcm

If the length is increased by eight the new length would be 3x+ 8

and width would be 2x+x= 3x after 50 % increase

Perimeter of the new rectangle= 2(L+B)

= 2 ( 3x+8 +3x)

= 2 (6x+8)

= 12x + 16

Ratio of the new perimeter to the original perimeter is

New perimeter : Original perimeter

8 : 5

12x+ 16 : 10x cm

80x= 60x + 16

20x= 16

x= 16/20= 4/5

Putting the value of length and breadth in place of x

Area of the new rectangle = L*B = 3 * (4/5) +8 *3(4/5)=

= 12+ 40/5 * 12/5

= 62/5* 12/5

= 744/5

= 148.8 cm square

X squared+ y squared = 2 y = 2x squared – 3 Which of the following describes the system?

cluponka [151]

Answer:

$x=-1,1,-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4} },\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$ and $y=-1,\frac{1}{2}$

The ordered pair solutions are $(-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(-1,-1)$ , and $(1,-1)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming the system is $\left \{ {x^2+y^2=2} \atop {y=2x^2-3}} \right.$ :

$x^2+y^2=2$

$x^2+(2x^2-3)^2=2$

$x^2+(4x^4-12x^2+9)=2$

$x^2+4x^4-12x^2+9=2$

$4x^4-11x^2+9=2$

$4x^4-11x^2+7=0$

$x^4-11x^2+28=0$

$(x^2-7)(x^2-4)=0$

$(4x^2-7)(x^2-1)=0$

$4x^2-7=0$

$4x^2=7$

$x^2=\frac{7}{4}$

$x=\pm\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$

$x^2-1=0$

$x^2=1$

$x=\pm1$

$y=2x^2-3$

$y=2(\pm\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}})^2-3$

$y=2({\frac{7}{4}})-3$

$y=\frac{7}{2}-3$

$y=\frac{1}{2}$

$y=2x^2-3$

$y=2(\pm1)^2-3$

$y=2(1)-3$

$y=2-3$

$y=-1$

Therefore, $x=-1,1,-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4} },\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}$ and $y=-1,\frac{1}{2}$

The ordered pair solutions are $(-\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}},0.5)$ , $(-1,-1)$ , and $(1,-1)$ .

Rhombus, parallelogram, trapezoid, rectangle

C. quadrilateral, trapezoid; trapezoid

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a quadrilateral, it has 4 sides, it is not a rhombus because its sides aren't equal, it isn't a parallelogram because only two of its sides are parallel

m∠A = 42 and m∠C = 57. Find m∠B.<br>A. 81<br><br> B. 99<br><br> C. 132<br><br> D. 147

faltersainse [42]

A.
because the total distance of every triangle 180. Add the two other angles so 42+ 57 =99. Then you have to subtract those two combined angles to find the missing one from the total distance, which is 180. 180-99=81. the answer is A. 81

The city airport and the train station are 45 miles apart. there are 9 gas stations equally spaced between the airport and train

Zielflug [23.3K]

The distance between the two adjacent gas stations will be 5 miles.

<h3>What is the difference between a ratio and a proportion?</h3>

A ratio is an ordered pair of integers a and b expressed as a/b, with b never equaling 0. A percentage is a mathematical expression in which two ratios are specified to be equal.

Distance between city airport and the train station = 45 miles

Stations equally spaced between the airport and train station=9

Let the space between two gas stations will be x;

x = 45/9

x=5 mile.

Hence, the distance between the two adjacent gas stations will be 5 miles.
