The answers to the blanks are
1. 600,
2. 120,
3. 120,
4. 180.
Explanation:
- The fence means perimeter around the court. So a tennis court's perimeter is 600 feet fence. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 times the sum of the rectangle's length and the rectangle's width.
- It is given that length equals 60 more than width i.e. l = w + 60, where l is the length of the court and w is the width of the court.
- The perimeter of a court = 600 = 2 (l + w) = 2l + 2w = 2 (w +60) + 2w, this becomes, 2w + 120 + 2w = 600; 4w = 480, w = 120.
- Since l = w + 60, l = 120 + 60 = 180. So length of a court is 180 feet and the width of a court is 120 feet.
I would have to say 85 but thats just a guess.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 group = 10 students
x group = 240 students.
1/x = 10/240 Cross multiply
10x = 240 Divide by 10
10x/10=240/10 Do the division
x = 24
The isosceles triangle is missing so i have attached it.
Answer:
Length of unknown side = 5p + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
In isosceles triangle, two of the sides are equal. In the attached triangle, we see that one of the equal sides is given as 5p + 3.
Thus,the second equal side is also 5p + 3.
Now, perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the three sides.
We have two sides and let the third side be denoted as x.
Thus;
Perimeter = (5p + 3) + (5p + 3) + x
We are given perimeter = 15p + 12
Thus;
(5p + 3) + (5p + 3) + x = 15p + 12
10p + 6 + x = 15p + 12
Rearranging, we have;
x = 15p - 10p + 12 - 6
x = 5p + 6
