Answer:

AB = 4.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = sum of areas of two rectangles

36 = [x(x - 4)] + [(x - 2)(2x + x)]

36 = x² - 4x + 3x² - 6x

4x² - 10x - 36 = 0

Dividing by 2:

2x² - 5x - 18 = 0

2x² - 9x + 4x - 18 = 0

x(2x - 9) + 2(2x - 9) = 0

(2x - 9)(x + 2) = 0

x = -2, 9/2

AB = x = 4½ cm

Answer:

AB = 9/2 cm

AB = 4.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of small rectangle

x * (x-4) = x^2 -4x

The area of  the big rectangle

The height is 2x +x  and the width is x-2

(2x+x) * (x-2)

(3x) * (x-2)

3x^2 -6x

Add the areas together

x^2 -4x + 3x^2 -6x

4x^2 -10x

This is equal to 36

4x^2 -10x=36

Subtract 36 from each side

4x^2 -10x -36=36-36

4x^2 -10x-36=0

Divide each side by 2

2x^2 -5x -18=0

Factor

(x + 2) (2 x - 9) = 0

Using the zero product property

x+2=0  2x-9=0

x = -2   2x =9

x = -2   x = 9/2

Since we cant have a negative length

x = 9/2

AB = 9/2 cm

Which expressions are algebraically equivalent to the correct usage of the distance formula to find the distance from point A(3,
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

(5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given two points are:

A(3,k) and B(h,4)

Now, using the distance formula that is=\sqrt{(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}+(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}}.

In the given points, y_{2}=4,y_{1}=k,x_{2}=h and x_{1}=3, thus,

\sqrt{(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}+(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}}=\sqrt{(4-k)^{2}+(h-3)^{2}}

which is the required equation, hence option 5 is correct.

A water tank is in the shape of a cylinder with a diameter of 20 feet and a height of 20 feet. The tank is 70% full. About how m
fomenos

Answer:

32901 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we find the volume of the cylindrical water tank when it is full.

The volume of a cylinder is given as:

V = \pi r^2h

where r = radius and h = height of the cylinder

The diameter of the tank is 20 feet, hence, its radius is 10 feet.

Volume, V, is therefore:

V = \pi * 10^2*20 = 6283.19 ft^3

This is the volume of the tank, when it is full.

When it is 70% full, the volume will be:

\frac{70}{100} *  6283.19 = 4398.23 ft^3

1 cubic foot (ft^3) is 7.48 gallons.

Therefore, the volume of the 70% full tank in gallons will be:

4398.23 * 7.48 = 32901.05 gallons ≅ 32901 gallons

The tank contains 32901 gallons of water.
