A landscaper is making a garden bed in the shape of a rectangle. The length of the garden bed is 2.5 feet longer than twice the

width of the bed. The area of the garden bed is 62.5 square feet. What is the perimeter of the garden bed, in feet?

Answer:

I'll setup the problem, then you can do the calculations

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2width(W) + 2length (L)

Area = LW

L = 2.5 + 2W

LW = 62.5

substitute L in equation for area

2.5W +  {2W}^{2}  = 62.5 \\  \\  {2W}^{2}  + 2.5 - 62.5 \\  \\  use \:  quadratic \:  solution \\\frac{ - b ±  \sqrt{ {b}^{2}  - 4ac}}{2a}

a = 2; b = 2.5; c = 62.5

Find each missing length, will giv brainliest + 50 pts
kipiarov [429]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 18^2 - 10^2 = 324 - 100 = 224

Sqt(224)=14.9666

Approximate = 14.97

2. 100 - 16 = 84

Sqrt 84 = 9.1652

Approximate = 9.17

3. 225 - 49 = 176

Sqrt 176 = 13.2665

Approximate = 13.27

4. 361 - 144 = 217

Sqrt 217 = 14.7309

Approximate = 14.73

Please help me with this question!!
stepladder [879]

Answer:

  1. rational
  2. irrational
  3. irrational
  4. irrational
  5. √7, it is irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

A <em>rational</em> number is one that can be expressed as the ratio of two integers. All fractions that have integer numerators and (non-zero) denominators are <em>rational</em> numbers. Any finite decimal number, or any repeating decimal number, is a rational number. These can always be expressed as the ratio of two integers. For example, 0.4040... = 40/99, and 0.286 = 286/1000.

To make an irrational sum, at least one of the contributors must be irrational. You want an irrational 2-number sum that has 7/8 as one of the contributors. Since 7/8 is rational, the other contributor must be irrational.

__

<u>Step 1</u>. The number 7/8 is <em>rational</em>.

<u>Step 2</u>. The desired sum is <em>irrational</em>.

<u>Step 3</u>. The rule <em>rational + </em><em>irrational</em><em> = irrational</em> applies.

<u>Step 4</u>. An <em>irrational</em> number must be chosen.

Step 5. √7 will produce an irrational sum, because <em>it is irrational</em>.

Triss [41]
F(g(2)) = 3(x^3 + 1)^2 - 7 = 3(x^6 + 2x^3 + 1) - 7 = 3x^6 + 6x^3 + 3 - 7 = 3x^6 + 6x^3 - 4

Condensing Logarithmic Expressions In Exercise, use the properties of logarithms to rewrite the expression as the logarithm of a
Dimas [21]

Answer:

\frac{\ln(2x + 5)}{\ln(x - 3)} = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

In(2x + 5) = In(x - 3)

we can rearrange the above equation as

⇒ In(2x + 5) - In(x - 3)  = 0

now,

from the properties of natural log function, we know that

\ln(\frac{A}{B}) = \ln(A)-\ln(B)

therefore,

we get

\frac{\ln(2x + 5)}{\ln(x - 3)} = 0

Hence,

Expression as the logarithm of a single quantity is \frac{\ln(2x + 5)}{\ln(x - 3)} = 0
