Answer:

Length = 18 in

Width = 15 in

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the area of a rectangle is:

A = L * W

but L = 1.2 * W

A = 1.2 * (W ^ 2)

1.2 * (W ^ 2) = 270

(W ^ 2) = 270 / 1.2

W ^ 2 = 225

Therefore, W is equal to:

W = 225 ^ (1/2)

W = +/- 15, but only +15 makes sense

W = 15

Now for L:

L = 1.2 * 15

L = 18

A = 15 * 18 = 270 in ^ 2

Bess [88]

Answer:

  • 45 and 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ages be r and m

<u>We have:</u>

  • r + m = 117
  • 5r = 9 + 3m

<u>Substitute m in the second equation and solve for r:</u>

  • m = 117 - r
  • 5r = 9 + 3( 117 - r)
  • 5r = 9 + 351 - 3r
  • 5r + 3r = 360
  • 8r = 360
  • r = 360/8
  • r = 45

<u>Then m is</u>

  • m = 117 - 45 = 72

Answer:

y = 1.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to find the equation of the straight line

Using the coordinate (0, 0) and (200, 300)

Slope m = 300-0/200-0

m = 300/200

m = 1.5

Since the line pass through the origin, the y intercept is 0

Substitute m = 1.5 and b =0 into y = mx+b

y = 1.5x + 0

y = 1.5x

This gives the required equation

A circle is 360 degrees

Arc EF is 146 degrees

EF + EDF = full circle
