Step-by-step explanation:
A^2+B^2=C^2
Answer:
The width of the floor is 10 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to form expressions of width and length in terms of w. With the given information :
width = w ft
length = (w - 2) ft
Given that the area of rectange is A = length × width so you have to subtitute the expressions and value into the formula :
A = l × w
80 = (w - 2) × w
w(w - 2) = 80
w² - 2w = 80
w² - 2w - 80 = 0
(w + 8)(w - 10) = 0
w + 8 = 0
w = -8 (rejected)
w - 10 = 0
w = 10
The weight of James cake in ounces is 52 ounces and the Pint of water dispensed in 20 seconds is 24 pints
<h3>Weight</h3>
- Weight of cake = 3 1/4 pounds
1 pound = 16 ounces
Number of ounces the cake weigh = 3 1/4 pounds × 16 ounces
= 13/4 × 16
= (208) / 4
= 52 ounces
- Water dispensed per second = 0.15 gallons
- Number of seconds = 20 seconds
1 gallon = 4 quarts
0.15 gallon = 0.6 quarts
1 quart = 2 pints
0.6 quart = 1.2 pints
Pint of water dispensed in 20 seconds = 1.2 × 20
= 24 pints of water
