Wally Beige has painted a rectangular mural that is 7 ft tall and 11 ft wide. He plans to paint a border of equal width all the

way around the outside of the mural. To end up with a border that has an area of 88 square ft, find the width of the border.

Answer:

Width = 4ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangular mural = Length × Breadth

7 ft tall and 11 ft wide.

(11 - 2W)(7 - 2W) = 88

77 -22W - 14W + 4W² = 88

77 -36W + 4W² = 88

4W² - 36W + 77 - 88

= 4W² - 36W - 11

W = 4ft

A railroad track rises 30 feet for every 400 feet of track. What is the measure of the angle of elevation of the track?
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Rising 30 feet for every 400 feet of track is not a very large angle of elevation.  We set this up as a right triangle to use right triangle trig to solve for the missing angle.  The height is 30 and the hypotenuse is 400.  The height is the side opposite the angle in question, and the hypotenuse is the hypotenuse! This is the sin ratio.  Setting up the ratio using our info:

sin\theta=\frac{30}{400}

When you are looking for a missing angle measure, as we are here, use the 2nd-->sin buttons to find the inverse of sin, which looks like this:

sin^{-1}(

Enter in the fraction 30/400 after the parenthesis and then hit enter to get the angle measure of 4.3 degrees.

Helena wrote the equation using point-slope form for the line that passes through the points (5, 1) and (3, 5). Analyze the step
viva [34]

Answer:

In step 2, she didn’t use an x and y from the same coordinate pair

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we have the points (5, 1) and (3, 5)

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute

m=\frac{5-1}{3-5}

m=\frac{4}{-2}

m=-2

step 2

The equation of the line in point slope form is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

take the point (3,5)

m=-2

substitute

y-5=-2(x-3)

y-5=-2x+6

y=-2x+6+5

step 3

y=-2x+11

therefore

In step 2, she didn’t use an x and y from the same coordinate pair

(Lesson 31) The population of Jacksonville, Florida, was 736,000 in 2000 and was increasing at a rate of 1.49% each year. At
damaskus [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Population t years after 2000 = 736,000 × 1.0149^t

736,000 × 1.0149^t = 1,000,000

1.0149^t = 1,000,000/736,000 = 125/92

Take log base 1.0149 of both sides

t ≈ 20.7

Population exceeds a million in 2021
