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 value of x? assume that the line is tangent to the circle
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

70°

Step-by-step explanation:

Connect the center of the circle with endpoints of the chord. Let the center of the circle be point O and endpoints of the chord be points A (let point A lie on the tangent line too)and B.

From the figure, central angle AOB has the measure of 220°.

Consider triangle AOB. This triangle is isosceles triangle because OA and OB are both radii. In this triangle the measure of angle AOB is 360° - 220° = 140°.

Angles OAB and OBA are angles adjacent to the base AB, so they are congruent. The sum of the measures of all interior angles in triangle is always 180°, so

m∠OAB + m∠OBA + m∠AOB = 180°

m∠OAB = m∠OBA = 1/2 (180° - 140°)

m∠OAB = 20°

Since drawn line is tangent line, then OA is perpendicular to this tangent line and

x° = 90° - 20°

x° = 70°

The factorization of 8x3 – 125 is (2x – 5)(jx2 + kx + 25). What are the values of j and k
Inga [223]

Answer:

j=4\\k=10

Step-by-step explanation:

8x^3 - 125

\left(2x\right)^3-5^3

Use this formula:

x^3-y^3=\left(x-y\right)\left(x^2+xy+y^2\right)

Where,

x=2x\\y=5

Substitute in the values.

\left(2x\right)^3-5^3=\left(2x-5\right)\left(2^2x^2+5\cdot \:2x+5^2\right)

\left(2x-5\right)\left(4x^2+10x+25\right)
