. [15 points] Alex is at the northernmost point of a circular parking lot with radius 26 feet. Dylan stands 22.4 feet west and 2

7 feet south of the southernmost point of the parking lot. Dylan walks due north until he hits the edge of the parking lot. Then, he turns and walks in a straight line towards the easternmost point of the parking lot. How close does Dylan get to Alex

Answer:

31.925 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A diagram is needed to visualize Dylan's movement to Alex see below

thus (-22.4)² + y²  = 26²

y² = 26² - (22.4)² = 174.24

y = -√174.2 = - 13.2 ft note due south

closest point at intersection

3/11*  ( x- 26) = -11/3 x * + 26

3/11 x - 78/11 = -11/3x + 26

3/11 x +11/3x = 26 + 78/11

130/33 x = 364/11

x = 364/11 * 33/130 = 8.4

then y = 3/11 * (x -26)

      x = 8.4 substitute, gives y = 3/11 * (8.4 -26) = -4.8

distance from (8.4 , -4.8) to (0 , 26)

√[(0 -8.4)² +  ( 26-(-4.8))² ] = √[( -8.4)² +  ( 30.8)² ] = 31.925 ft

The perimeter of a rectangle is 48 m. The area of the rectangle is 128 square meters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

l = 16, w = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l = length

Let w = width

Area = w * l

128 = w * l

w  = 128/l

Perimeter = 2w + 2l

48 = 2w + 2l

48 = 2(128/l) +2l

48 = 256/l +2l

Multiply everything by l

48l = 256 + 2l^2

l^2 + 128 = 24l

l^2 + 128 -24l = 0

(l-16)(l-8)= 0

L = 16

L = 8

If you try them out, and test it, l = 16 would work:

2(16) + 256/16 = 48

32 + 16 =48

16 * 128/16 = 128

16 * 8= 128

128 = 128

Since I'm not sure if you are in advanced math or not, I will do it simple with guess and check

A public library has an aquarium in the shape of a rectangular prism. The base is 6 feet by 2.5 feet. The heigh is 4 feet. How m
topjm [15]

sides 2 * 6 * 4 =48 and 6*4=24

bottom 6*2.5 =15

2.5*4=10

10*2=20 that's the area of 2 smaller sides

Step-by-step explanation:

we add up the dimensions together 48+20+15=83

so the final equation becomes (6*2.5)+2(2.5*4)+2*(6*4)=83
