C is your answer. 5x + 2 = 17

First let’s get them all in terms of x:
Box kites = 3x
Dragon kites = x + 2
Butterfly kites = x

Adding all those up:

x + 3x + x + 2 = 17
Combine like terms:
5x + 2 = 17

A circle has a diameter of 29 feet. What is the area? *
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>660.5 square feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle = πr²

where r is the radius

From the question

diameter = 29 feet

To find the radius given the diameter we use the formula

radius =  \frac{diameter}{2}  \\ radius  =  \frac{29}{2}  \\  = 14.5 \:  \: feet

So the area of the circle is

A =  {14.5}^{2} \pi \\  = 210.25\pi \\  = 660.519...

We have the final answer as

<h3>660.5 square feet</h3>

Hope this helps you

At a sport clubhouse the coach wants to rope off a rectangular area that is adjacent to the building. He uses the length of the
Furkat [3]

Answer:

w < 8 meters ( w must be greater than 0 because length cannot be 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

One side with building is 23 meters, the other opposite side also will be 23 meters (with rope).

Let width (remaining 2 sides) be "w", he has AT MOST 39 meters of rope, so we can write:

Rope Needed = 23 + 2w < 39

Simplifying:

23 + 2w < 39\\2w < 39 - 23\\2w < 16\\w < 8

The range of possible values of w is  w meters (of course w has to be greater than 0)
