Answer:

Length of the other side of the backyard is 80.4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the dimensions of the Liam's rectangular backyard = 85 feet × a feet

Diagonal of the rectangle, AD = 117 feet

When we apply Pythagoras theorem in ΔABD,

AD² = AB² + BD²

(117)² = (85)² + BD²

a² = 13689 - 7225

a = √6464

= 80.399 feet

a ≈ 80.4 feet

Therefore, length of the other side of the backyard is 80.4 feet.

seraphim [82]

Ok, so she has 14 tickets and each ride cost 2 so that can be modeled with the following expression: x= 14-2y since she initially bought 14 tickets and 2 times the number of tickets she spends. To find the equivalent expression you could basically switch up the formula like so: 7*2-2y=x because you just need an equivalent expression, and you don't need to have such a different formula or anything like that. Hope I helped!

In a square, one pair of opposite sides was made 50% longer and the other pair of opposite sides was made 50% shorter.

Pachacha [2.7K]

You have a square with an area of 100 meters^2.
if you decrees a pair of opposite sides by 50%. you end up with a rectangle with the area of 50 meters^2.
then you increase the other pair of opposite sides by 50%. you end up with a rectangle with the area of 75 meters^2. OK now I see what I did wrong.

The correct answer is 75%

Two cyclists leave towns 253 kilometers apart at the same time and travel towards each other. One cyclist travels 5km/h faster t

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

The rate of the slower cyclist is

$22\frac{4}{5}km/h$

and that of the faster cyclist is

$27 \frac{4}{5}km/h$

Step-by-step explanation:

We let x be the rate of the slower cyclist

$rate \times time = distance$

From the question, the distance between the two towns is 253 and the time taken for the two cyclist to meet is 5 hours

so we can write the equation

$5x + 5(x + 5) = 253$

We simplify to get the value for x

$\implies5x + 5x + 25 = 253$

$\implies10x = 253 - 25$

$\implies10x = 228$

$\implies x =22 \frac{4}{5}$

Hence the rate of the slower cyclist is

$22 \frac{4}{5} km/h$

and that of the rate faster cyclist is

$27 \frac{4}{5}km/h$

How do u identify monomial ;binomial and trinomials. in a problem

shutvik [7]

Monomial: expression with one term
Example: 6x

Binomial: expression with two terms
Example: 6x + 7

Trinomial: expression with three terms
Example: 8x^2 + 6x + 7

*any expression with four or more terms will be called a polynomial*
