What is the area of this?I need step by step

Answer:

  • Driveway Area = 218 square feet
  • Garden Area = 230 square feet
  • Total Area = 448 square feet

See diagram below.

====================================================

Explanation:

Start at the lower left corner of the entire figure. Move 20 ft directly to the right until reach the end of the driveway at the bottom. Now move 10 ft up so you reach the other side of the driveway (the 26 ft side). In the process of moving 10 ft up, mark a new line segment. I've done so in red in the diagram below.

I've also drawn a green box. The red line and green box form a shape of a flag on a flagpole. The pole being 10 ft tall and the green box (flag) is a 6 by 3 rectangle. The 6 is from 26-20 = 6 and the 3 is from 10-7 = 3. Note how I'm subtracting the opposite side values to help figure out the dimensions of this green box.

The 10 ft by 20 ft portion of the driveway is 10*20 = 200 square feet. The green box adds on another 18 sq ft because 6*3 = 18. In all, we have 200+18 = 218 square feet for the driveway.

-------------------

If you want to know the area of the garden, then we first compute the overall area of everything shown. That's 32*14 = 448 square feet. Subtract off the driveway's area to get 448-218 = 230. Therefore, the garden's area is 230 square feet.

These are 2 questions and 2 answers:

<span>1. Question 1: The area of a rectangular carpet is given by the trinomial 5x^2 - 3x - 14. What are the possible dimensions of the carpet? Use factoring.

Answer: 5x^2 -3x  -14

Explanation:

You might probe the different pairs of factors given in the answer choices to check wich product is equal to the oirginal polynomial or you can factor from zero.

I will show  you how to factor that polynomial from zero:

1) given: 5x^2 - 3x - 14

2) multiply and divide by the leading coefficient =>

5 [5x^2 - 3x  -14 ]
----------------------
         5

3) Enter the the factor 5 inside the parenthesis:

5.5x^2 - 5.3x - 5.14
--------------------------
              5

4) rearrange conviniently to show (5x) as a common factir of the first two terms

(5x)^2 - 3(5x) - 70
--------------------------
              5

5) factor the numerator using 5x as common term of the two binomials:

(5x  ) ( 5x   ) <----> open the parenthesis
(5x - ) (5x + ) <-----> include the signs
(5x - 10) (5x + 7)  <---> two numbers that add up - 3 and their product is  - 70

=>

(5x - 10)(5x + 7)
---------------------
         5

6) divide (5x - 10) by 5 => x - 2

7) factored expression

(x - 2) (5x + 7)

8) Conclusion: the answer is the option B. (5x + 7) and (x - 2)


2. Question 2.  The area of a rectangular barnyard is given by the trinomial 6x^2 + 7x – 20. What are the possible dimensions of the barnyard? Use factoring

Answer: </span><span><span>option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>

Explanation:

The procedure is the same of the question 1.

1) given: 6x^2 + 7x - 20

2) multiply numerator and denominator by 6 and rearrange to show (6x) as common factor ot the first two terms =>

(6x)^2 + 7(6x) - 120
--------------------------
              6
3) factor the numerador using 6x as common factor ot two binomials, and simplify:

(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + )(6x - )
(6x + 15) (6x - 8)

=>

(6x + 15)(6x -8)
---------------------
           6

(6x + 15)(6x - 8)
---------------------- =
        3.2

(6x + 15)      (6x - 8)
------------- .  ------------ =
      3                2

(2x + 5)(3x - 4)

4) answer: option C. (2x + 5)(3x - 4)</span>

John and Annie have two distinguishable ponds. Initially, each of the ponds contains four ducks and five geese. John first picks
Sladkaya [172]

Answer: 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that annie picks a duck Pt= the probability of picking a duck without accounting for the added one (Po)+ probability of picking the added bird and it's a duck(Pi)

Pt = Po+Pi

Since the total number of birds in the right pond is 10 after the addition of one by john

Po= 4/10

Pi= the of john adding a duck × the probability of annie picking the added bird

Pi= 4/9 × 1/10

Pi = 4/90

Pt= 4/10 + 4/90

Pt = (36+4)/90

Pt=40/90

Pt= 4/9

(This implies that the probability of picking a duck remain the same even after the addition of one bird from the left ponds because they both have equal proportions of duck and geese i.e the initial number of duck and geese in both right and left ponds are 4 and 5 respectively)

Thanks.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

5% each hour

Step-by-step explanation:

in 1.5 hours she loses 7.5% of battery

get the percentage of loss for a half hour.

divide 1.5 and 7.5 by 3.

That gives a loss of 2.5% for every half hour.

Which gives a loss of 5% percent an hour.
