Answer:

length = 100

width = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = length of red rectangle

Let H = height of red rectangle

Equation1:   L+H=125 : we know the perimeter is 250 so L+H is 125

Equation2:   L*H=2,500 : we know the area is 2,500

Equation3:   L=125-H : subtracted H from both sides of Equation1

Equation4:   (125-H)*H=2,500 : substituted "125-H" for L into Equation2

Solve equation4:

  (125-H)*H=2,500   multiple terms on left side of equation

  125H - H^2 = 2,500   rearrange into standard form

  H^2 - 125H + 2,500 = 0

At this point you can "brute force" the answer with the quadratic formula:

H = (125 ± SQRT(125^2 - 4*1*2500) ) / 2

H = 100 or H = 25 : actually these are L and H

You could also factor the equation:

(H - 100) * (H - 25) = 0 : gives same answe

Answer:

x= 7/5 (1 2/5 or 1.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign.

12x-15+3x=6

Move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign.

12x+3x=6+15

Collect like terms.

15x=21

Divide both sides of the equation by 15.

x=7/5 (1 2/5 or 1.4)

Two angles form a linear pair. The measure of one angle is 1/3 of the other angle. Find the measure if each angle
sdas [7]

Answer:

<em>The measure of the angles is 45° and 135°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

When two lines intersect, a linear pair of angles is formed. Two angles are said to be linear if they are adjacent, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.

Let's call x and y the two required angles. Knowing they form a linear pair:

x+y=180

We also know one angle is 1/3 of the other angle, thus:

x=y/3

Or, equivalently:

3x=y

Substituting y into the first equation:

x+3x=180

Simplifying:

4x=180

Solving:

x=180/4=45

The other angle is:

y=3x=3\cdot 45=135

Thus the measure of the angles is 45° and 135°

One side of a triangle is 3 times the second side. The third side is 13 feet longer than the second side. The perimeter of a tri
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

  33, 11, 24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the length of the second side. Then the length of the first side is 3s and the length of the third side is s+13. The perimeter is the sum of side lengths:

  (3s) +(s) +(s +13) = 68

  5s = 55 . . . . . subtract 13

  s = 11 . . . . . . . divide by 5

The side lengths are ...

  33, 11, 24 feet
