Find area of the border :
--------------------------------------------------------
Area of the room = 22 x 25 = 550 ft²
Area of the rug = 238 ft²
Area of the border = 550 - 238 = 312 ft²
--------------------------------------------------------
Define y:
--------------------------------------------------------
Let the width be y.
--------------------------------------------------------
Find area of the border in term of y :
--------------------------------------------------------
The area of the border = 22y x 2 + 25y x 2 - 4y² = 94y - 4y²
*We need to take away 4y² because the 4 corners will be overlap twice if we don't.
--------------------------------------------------------
Solve y :
--------------------------------------------------------
94y - 4y² = 312
4y² - 94y + 312 = 0
2y² - 47y + 156 = 0
<span>(y - 4)(2y - 39) = 0
</span>y = 4 or y = 19.5
--------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The border can be 4 ft or 19.5 ft

Answer:
the answer is D
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation works with every number placed where the x is, for example:
4(5+1)= 4×5 + 4
4×6=20+4
24=24
but it also works with
4(11+1)= 4×11 + 4
4×12=44+4
48=48
and it also works with every possible number you can think!
Y = -4/3x + 5....the slope here is -4/3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. To find the negative reciprocal, flip the original slope and change the sign. So we have -4/3....we flip it and it becomes - 3/4....we change the sign and it becomes 3/4. So the perpendicular line will have a slope of 3/4.
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3/4
(5,-4)...x = 5 and y = -4
now we sub into the formula and find b, the y int
-4 = 3/4(5) + b
-4 = 15/4 + b
-4 - 15/4 = b
-16/4 - 15/4 = b
-31/4 = b
so ur perpendicular equation is : y = 3/4x + (-31/4) which is written as :
y = 3/4x - 13/4 <== ur answer
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
12 times 2 is 24
We need the parenthesis around 15 + 3
Answer is C.
(15 + 3) / 3 = 6
18 / 3 = 6
6 = 6
So the answer is C :)
