Jill has 120 feet of fencing to use for her horse paddock. To increase the area she can enclose, she plans on using the side of

the barn as one side of her paddock as shown below.
Determine which equation can be used to find the dimensions of the horse paddock when the area is 1,800 square feet. Let x represent the width of the paddock.

2x2 - 120x = 1,800
-x2 + 120x = 1,800
x2 - 120x = 1,800
-2x2 + 120x = 1,800

Answer: <span>-x2 + 120x = 1,800
</span><span>
She plans on using the side of the barn as one side of her paddock so it has 3 sides. Since the width is shorter, it will be more efficient to have 2 widths (1 lengths and 2 widths). Because J</span><span>ill has 120 feet of fencing to use, you can get this equation:
120ft= 1L +2W
</span>1L= 120-2W

If you insert it into area formula it would be:
area= L*W
area= (120-2W) *W
area= 120W- 2W^2
-2W^2+120W= area

<span>Since x represent the width of the paddock and the area is 1800 the equation become
</span>-2X^2+120X= 1,800

What is the lateral area of a prism which has a lateral edge of 4 inches and has a regular pentagonal base with an edge of 12 in
Nat2105 [25]

Check the picture below.

so the pentagonal prism in the picture is been seen from the bottom, namely so we can see its base, however the base is at the bottom, what does that mean, it means that the pentagonal bases are the top and bottom of the prism, that matters, because the other sides are the lateral sides.

so, if we notice, the lateral sides are really just 5 rectangles, each one a 12x4, so if we simply get the area of all those rectangles.

5(12 * 4) = 240 in².
