Answer:
The width is 50 yards and the length is 141 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call: L the length of the field and W the width of the field.
From the sentence, the perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 382 yards we can formulate the following equation:
2L + 2W = 382
Because the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of two times the length with two times the width.
Then, from the sentence, the length of the field is 9 yards less than triple the width, we can formulate the following equation:
L = 3W - 9
So, replacing this last equation on the first one and solving for W, we get:
2L + 2W = 382
2(3W - 9) + 2W = 382
6W -18 +2W = 382
8W - 18 = 382
8W = 382 + 18
8W = 400
W = 400/8
W = 50
Replacing W by 50 on the following equation, we get:
L = 3W - 9
L = 3(50) - 9
L = 141
So, the width of the rectangular field is 50 yards and the length is 141 yards.
First, find m, the slope of the line.
(1-3)/(5-1) =
-2/4 =
-1/2
Next, choose either point to write the point slope form. I will show the outcome of both points.
1. Using point (1, 3)
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-3=(-1/2)(x-1)
————————
y-3=-1/2x+1/2
y=-1/2x+7/2
2. Using point (5,1)
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-1=-1/2(x-5)
————————
y-1=-1/2x+5/2
y=-1/2x+7/2
The outcome is the same.
Answer:
3x - 23 = 28
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm assuming you want the total surface area.
This is a trapezoidal prism. The bases are the parallel faces running horizontal (parallel to the ground) and they are congruent trapezoids. The lateral sides are rectangles.
-------------------------------------------------
Lateral Faces:
The back face (hidden from view) is a rectangle that is 12 inches by 3 inches, so it has an area of 12*3 = 36 sq inches
The front slant faces on the left and right are each 3*5 = 15 sq inches in area
The front center lateral face has area of 6*3 = 18 sq inches
The total lateral surface area is 15+18+15+36 = 84 sq inches
-------------------------------------------------
The bases are each the same trapezoid. The trapezoid has two parallel sides of 12 and 6 inches. Call this b1 and b2. The height of the trapezoid is h = 4. Imagine the trapezoid is laid flat in a 2D perspective instead of a 3D one.
The area of one trapezoid is...
A = h*(b1+b2)/2
A = 4*(12+6)/2
A = 4*(18)/2
A = 72/2
A = 36
So the area of both base faces combined is 2*36 = 72
-------------------------------------------------
The total surface area is then found by adding the total lateral surface area (84) and the total base area (72) to get 84+72 = 156
Final Answer: 156 square inches
