Answer: 2.25
Explanation:
Let the width be x
Length = 3x
Perimeter of frame = 18
2(l + w) = 18
2(3x + x) = 18
2(4x) = 18
8x = 18
x = 18/8
x = 2.25 feet
Answer:
y=-3/4x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b; y is the y coordinate; m is the slope; x is the x coordinate; you have to find b. So you replace all the numbers out which is given to you;
-4=-3/4(4)+b (you multiply -3/4 by 4 and get -3)
-4=-3+b (you add 3 to both sides and get -1)
-1=b (you now found b so plug it into the equation)
y=-3/4x-1
Answer: 15.3 (with a repeating bar over the 3)
Answer:
The sidewalk is 2 feet wide
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the sidewalk is given as 80 square feet
The length and width of pool
including side walks will be;
10 + 2x and 6 + 2x
To get the area of the side walk
That will be area of total minus area of the pool
That will be ;
(10 + 2x)(6 + 2x) - 10(6) = 80
60 + 12x + 20x + 4x^2 - 60 = 80
4x^2 + 32x -80 = 0
x^2 + 8x -20
x^2 + 10x - 2x - 20 = 0
x(x + 10) -2(x + 10) = 0
(x-2)(x + 10) = 0
x = 2 or -10
since width cannot be negative;
The sidewalk is 2 feet wide
