Answer:
Option 4 is correct. The length of PR is 6.4 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given figure it is noticed that the triangle PQR and triangle MQR.
Let the length of PR be x.
Pythagoras formula
Use pythagoras formula for triangle PQM.
The value of PM is 10. The length of PR is x, so the length of MR is (10-x).
Use pythagoras formula for triangle PQR.
.....(1)
Use pythagoras formula for triangle MQR.
.... (2)
From equation (1) and (2) we get
Therefore length of PR is 6.4 units and option 4 is correct.
Answer: Area = 6m²
Smaller number = 16
Hours = 9.6 h
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.
1) w = x m 2) w = x + 1 m
l = x + 5 m l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m
A₁ = A₂
A = w*l
A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x
A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2
A₁ = A₂
x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2
5x - 3x = 2
2x = 2
x = 1
A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²
The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.
<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>
5 40
5x = 80
x = 80/5 = 16
Sixteen construction workers can finish cementing a floor of a building in 3 hours. On a certain day, only 5 construction workers are available for the job. How long will it take the 5 construction workers to do the cementing job?
workers hours
16 3
5 x
↑ ↓ inversely proportional
<u> 5 </u> = <u> 3 </u>
16 x
5x = 16*3
5x = 48
x = 48/5
x = 9.6 h
