Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 10, then x = 10 + y

x + y = 20

substitute for x:

10 + y + y = 20

2y = 10

y = 5

x = 10 + 5 = 15

A boundary stripe 6 in. wide is painted around a rectangle whose dimensions are 120 ft by 230 ft. Use differentials to approxima

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

350 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Width of strip=6 in

Dimension of rectangle= $20 ft\times 230 ft$

We know that

Area of rectangle ,A=xy

Differentiate

$dA=\frac{\partial A}{\partial x}x+\frac{\partial A}{\partial y}y$

We have $\frac{\partial A}{\partial x}=y=230 ft$

$\frac{\partial A}{\partial y}=x=120$

$dx=\frac{12}{12}=1 ft$

1 ft=12 in

Because 6 in added in both side of breadth

dy= $\frac{12}{12}=1 ft$

Because 6 in added on both sides of length of rectangle

Substitute the values

$dA=230\times 1+120\times 1=350 ft^2$

Hence, the number of square feet of paint in the strip=350 square feet

Answer:

To find the answer consider that this is a right triangle and we can use the tangent function in order to find the value of x

remember the acronym soh cah toa.

to use the tangent function we divide the opposite and adjacent side that is what the oa stands for in toa

setting it up looks like this

tan 72° = $\frac{x}{8\\}$

solving for x gives us x= 8×tan 72°

which is about 24.62
