<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer: 4.14 feet

Explanation:

As the rug is a rectangle, to find the area you simply multiply ,the length and width together.

L x W = A

<h3>As in the question stated you have the area and length:</h3>

8 .75 x W = 36.25

<h3>To find the width you can simply divide the area by the length:</h3>

36.25 ÷ 8.75 = 4.14

<h3>So the width is 4.14 feet!</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>

Which of the following is not a way to represent the solution of the inequality 7 - 9x - (x + 12) less than or greater to 25?

Oduvanchick [21]

<span>To answer the question above first we need toclarify what the inequality is actually saying:

7 - 9x - (x + 12) </= 25 (simplify)

-5 - 10x </= 25 (add 5 to both sides)

-10x </= 30 (divide by -10 to get x)

x >/= -3 (don't forget to flip the signs when you divide by a negative number)

So this says x is greater than or equal to -3, so which of these statements is not a way to represent that?

I'd say it's the second one. x is greater than not less than.</span>

Answer:

$Flag = 55.90m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Length = 50m$

$Width = 25m$

Required

Determine the length of the flag

Because the flag crosses through opposite diagonals of the pool. Its length is the length of the diagonal of the pool.

This is calculated using Pythagoras theorem.

$Flag^2 = Length^2 + Width^2$

Substitute values for Length and Width

$Flag^2 = 50^2 + 25^2$

$Flag^2 = 2500 + 625$

$Flag^2 = 3125$

Take positive square root of both sides

$Flag = \sqrt{3125$

$Flag = 55.90m$

<em>Hence, the length of the flag is approximately 55.90m</em>

The surface area of a right triangular prism is 228 square inches. The base is a right triangle with a base height of 6 inches a

umka2103 [35]

Triangle area = 6 * 8 / 2 = 24 square inches
Prism Surface Area = 2 * triangle area + height * (side a + side b + side c)
228 = 2 * 24 + height * (6 + 8 + 10)
228 -48 = height * 24
height = 180 / 24
height = 7.5
