Answer:

w = 4 1/2

l = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

w = width

2w-3 = length

A = lw

27 = w(2w-3)

27 = 2w² - 3w

subtract 27 from each side:

2w² - 3w - 27 = 0

factor:

(2w-9)(w+3) = 0

solve each for 'w':

w = 9/2

w = -3  (This answer can be discounted because a length cannot be negative)

width = 9/2

length = 2(9/2) - 3 which is 6

An electrician leans an extension ladder against the outside wall of a house so that it reaches an electric box 22 feet up. The
jeka57 [31]

The ladder and the outside wall form a right triangle

The length of the ladder is 97.8 feet

<h3>How to determine the length of the ladder?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Distance (B) = 22 feet

Angle of elevation (θ) = 77 degrees

The length (L) of the ladder is calculated using the following cosine ratio

cos(θ) = B/L

So, we have:

cos(77) = 22/L

Make L the subject

L = 22/cos(77)

Evaluate the product

L = 97.8

Hence, the length of the ladder is 97.8 feet

Find the surface area and round to the nearest hundredths place when necessary.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

First lets find the area of the bottom circle:

7.2 is your radius so:

7.2^2 = 51.84 the reason why you square your radius is because thats apart of the formula when finding the are of a circle.

lets continue:

51.84 x 3.14(pi) = 162.7776

Now we need to find the area of the round surface but first we need to find the circumference of one circle and multiply it by the height.

2 x 3.14 x 7.2 = 45.216

Now lets multiply it by the height:

45.216 x 17 = 768.672

Now lets add both areas:

768.672 + 162.7776 = 931.4496 dont forget to round to the nearest hundredths place! 931.4496 rounded up = 931.45 square meters is your answer.

When ABC was dialed by a scale factor of 2, centered at the origin, the result was its image A'B'C' shown on the coordinates pla
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In dilation, the image and the original are similar, in that they are the same shape but not necessarily the same size. They are not congruent because that requires them to be the same shape and the same size, which they are not (scale factor is 2)

vertices of ABC are A(-2,2), B(-2,3), and C(1,2)

If we multiply by 2 from original to image,

then from image to original we divide by 2
