What is the length of a rectangle whose perimeter is 140 ft if its width-to-length is 2 : 5

Mathematics

Answer:

50 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the ratio of width-to-length is 2 : 5.

Let,

Width = 2x ft

Length = 5x ft

Perimeter of the rectangle is

Perimeter=2(lenght+width)

Perimeter=2(5x+2x)

Perimeter=2(7x)

Perimeter=14x

It is given that the perimeter of the rectangle is 140 ft.

14x=140

Divide both sides by 14.

x=10

The value of x is 10.

Length=5x=5\times 10=50

Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 50 ft.

LINEAR EQUATIONS!<br> 7(6-y)=-3(y-2)
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

y=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that dont contain the variables

move variable to left side and change its sign  

42-7y+3y=6    collect like terms

-7y +3y=6-42

-4y=6-42

-4y=-36     divide both sides of the equation by -4

y=9

hope that helps :)

The height of a punted football can be modeled by the function: f(x) = -.0079 x2 + 1.8x + 1.5. In this equation, f(x) is the hei
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The function used to represent the height of a punted football can be modeled as

f(x) = -.0079x² + 1.8x + 1.5

Where f(x) is the height in feet, and x is the horizontal distance, also in feet.

a) when the ball was punted, x = 0, therefore, the height of the punted ball would be

f(x) = -.0079(0)² + 1.8(0) + 1.5

f(x) = 1.5 feet

The height is 1.5 feet

b) The equation is a quadratic equation. The plot of this equation on a graph would give a parabola whose vertex would be equal to the maximum height reached by the punted ball.

The vertex of the parabola is calculated as follows,

Vertex = -b/2a

From the equation,

a = - 0.0079

b = 1.8

Vertex = - - 1.8/0.0079 = 227.84 feet

So the maximum height of the punt is 227.84 feet
