This is a system of equations. We know that if L is length, L=x+5, and area=L*w, where w=x. So, 2+5x=(x+5)x therefore 2+5x=x^2+5x. Subtracting 5x from both sides, x^2=2, therefore x=sqrt(2). So, the width is sqrt(2) and length=sqrt(2)+5

A delivery company has 18 vehicles in its fleet.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: £1517.04

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel expenses for the vans will be calculated as:

Vans:

Since the average distance travelled per day is 198km and the average distance travelled per litre is 9km, the van would use:

= 198/9

= 22 litres

Since there are 8 vans, they'll use:

= 22 × 8 = 176 liters

Trucks:

Since the average distance travelled per day is 620km and the average distance travelled per litre is 6.2km, the truck would use:

= 620/6.2

= 100

Since there are 10 trucks, they'll use:

= 100 × 10 = 1000 liters

The amount of liters for both the van and the truck will be:

= 176 liters + 1000 liters

= 1176 liters

The fuel cost will then be:

= 1176 × 1£1.29

= £1517.04

A right triangle has a 30o angle. the leg adjacent to the 30o angle measures 25 inches. what is the length of the other leg
adelina 88 [10]
Since the triangle has a 30° angle and a right angle which is 90°, this triangle must be a 30 - 60 - 90 triangle, which is a triangle with special properties. The length of the leg adjacent to the 30° angle is equal to the √3 times x where x is the length of the angle adjacent to the 60<span>° angle. Here is a visual representation:
