An architect designs a diagonal path across a rectangular patio. The path is 29 meters long. The width of the patio is x meters,

and the length of the path is 5 meters more than the width.
Which equation can be used to find the dimensions of the playground?

0.5(x)(x + 5) = 29
0.5(x)(x + 5) = 841
x2 + (x + 5)2 = 29
x2 + (x + 5)2 = 841

The <u>diagonal</u> of<u> rectangular</u> patio together with two <u>adjacent sides</u> of patio form <u>right triangle</u>.

Then by the Pythagorean theorem,

\text{Diagonal}^2=\text{(Side 1)}^2+\text{(Side 2)}^2.

Since

  • \text{Side 1}=x\ m;
  • \text{Side 2}=(x+5)\ m;
  • \text{Diagonal}=29\ m,

then

29^2=x^2+(x+5)^2,\\ \\x^2+(x+5)^2=841.

I have 47 nickels and dimes worth $4.20. How many of each type of coin do I have?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

37 dimes and 10 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

let d = # dimes

let n = # nickels

we can set up a system of equations:

n + d = 47

.05n + .10d = 4.2

if we solve the first equation for 'n' we get:  

n = 47-d

now we can substitute this in for 'n' in the second equation:

.05(47-d) + .10d = 4.2

2.35 - .05d + .10d = 4.2

2.35 + .05d = 4.2

subtract 2.35 from each side to get:

.05d = 1.85

d = 1.85÷.05

d = 37

if d+n = 47 and d=37 then n = 10

Check:

.05(10) + .1(37) should equal 4.2

.50 + 3.7 = 4.2  [It Checks Out]

A student buys a guitar that is on sale for 15% off the regular price of $200. He also must pay an 8% sales tax. What is his tot
EastWind [94]

Answer:

option c

Step-by-step explanation:

a guitar 15% off means that the cost is now 85%

100percent---200dollars\\85percent---x\:dollars\\\\x=\frac{200*85}{100}\\\\x=2*85\\\\x=170

now the 8% of 170 is

100\:percent---170\:dollars\\\\8\:percent---x\:dollars

x=\frac{8*170}{100}\\\\x=\frac{8*17}{10}\\\\x=13.6

so the total cost is

170+13.6

183.6
