15 square feet. If one side is 3 the opposite side has to also be 3. And since 3 + 3 = 6 that means that you have 10 left. If you split 10 in half (5 and 5) and draw out the rectangle you will see that two sides are 5 feet while the other two are 3 feet. The perimeter of that rectangle would be 16 feet and the area would be 15 feet.

You know that 2 sides are 3 feet, if the said baby quilt is a rectangle. Anyway, 2(of the sides) x 3 = 6. So that's 6 of the 16 feet of the perimeter. The other sides added together is 10, and since you have to split 10 in 2, the other sides are 5 feet each. So you have 5+5+3+3=16. Now you take two side that are perpendicular to each other(one 5 feet and another 3 feet) and multiply them. 3x5=15. So the area is 15 feet squared.

Please help round to the nearest tenth

Romashka [77]

Answer:

a = 4.6

b = 4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

to find a, use cos:

⇒ cos = $\frac{adjacent}{hypothenuse}$

⇒ cos 30 = $\frac{13}{a}$

cos of 30 is 0.154

⇒ 0.154 = $\frac{13}{a}$

multiply 13 on both sides:

⇒ 0.154 x 13 = $\frac{13}{a}$ x 13

⇒ 4.62 = a

round to the nearest tenth:

⇒ 4.62 = 4.6

⇒ a = 4.6

to find b, use tan:

⇒ tan = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

⇒ tan 60 = $\frac{b}{13}$

tan of 60 is 0.320

⇒ 0.320 = $\frac{b}{13}$

multiply 13 on both sides:

⇒ 0.320 x 13 = $\frac{b}{13}$ x 13

⇒ 4.16 = b

round to the nearest tenth:

⇒ 4.16 = 4.2

⇒ b = 4.2

Solve the equation by the Quadratic Formula. x^2+3=9x

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the given x^2+3=9x in standard quadratic form:

1x^2 - 9x +3 = 0

Then the three coefficients are a = 1, b = -9 and c = 3.

The discriminant is √(b^2 - 4ac), or √(81 - [1][3]), or √78.

± √78

Thus, the roots are x = ----------------
