Answer:

The dimension of the plot is 30 yd by 20 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Area = 600 yd^2

Length = width + 10

l = w + 10 ......1

Area of a rectangular plot is;

Area A = length × width

A = l × w

Substituting equation 1;

A = (w+10) × w

A = w^2 + 10w

600 = w^2 + 10w

w^2 +10w -600 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation;

w = -30 or 20

cannot be negative

w = 20 yd

l = w+10 = 20+10 = 30yd

The dimension of the plot is 30 yd by 20 yd

When squaring fractions, both the numerator and the denominator are squared:

12. (4/5)² = 16/25

13. (-5/12)² = 25/144

14. (13/6)² = 169/36

Lilian says that 25% of a number will always be less than 75% of any other number. Complete one inequality to support Lillian's
rjkz [21]
She is incorrect cause if we take the number 20 and take 25% of it it equals 5 so now 20 is only 15. They if we take 75% away from 20 is equals 15 so then we only have 5 from 20 left. Therefore she’s incorrect because 75% leaves 5/20 and 25% leaves 15/20. Hope that makes sense.

What are the slope between (-5,-2) and (8,13)​
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

The slope:

m = \frac{15}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

-To determine the slope of the following points shown, you need this formula:

m = \frac{y_{2} - y{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}

(m represents the slope, (x_{1}, y_{1}) represents the first coordinate and (x_{2},y_{2}) represents the second coordinate)

-Apply the following points to the formula:

m = \frac{13 + 2}{8 + 5}

Then, solve:

m = \frac{13 + 2}{8 + 5}

m = \frac{15}{13}

So, the slope is \frac{15}{13}.
