Answer:

<u>The dimensions of the basketball section are: length of 17.5 feet and width of 14 feet.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Length of the small rectangular basketball section = 1.25 times the width

2. Part A. Create an equation to represent the area of the basketball section, A, in terms of the width, w.

Let's recall that the formula of the area of a rectangle is:

Area = Length * Width, therefore:

A = 1.25w * w

<u>A = 1.25w²</u>

Part B. Jackson decides to make the area of the basketball section 245 sq feet. What are the dimensions, in feet of the basketball section?

Let's replace the value given in the equation we created in part A, this way:

A = 1.25w²

245 = 1.25w²

w² = 245/1.25

w² = 196

√w² = √196

w = 14 ⇒ 1.25w = 17.5

<u>The dimensions of the basketball section are: length of 17.5 feet and width of 14 feet.</u>

The graph shows the distance, y, that a car traveled in x hours:
vesna_86 [32]
Here, You need to calculate the slope of the graph by taking any two random points, as follows:
(x₁,y₁) = (0,0) & (x₂,y₂) = (1,55)

Now, we know, 
y₂-y₁ = m(x₂-x₁)
55-0 = m(1-0)
m = 55/1
m = 55

Here m represents the slope of graph which is nothing but rate of change of distance.

In short, option A will be your answer.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The Inequality representing money she can still spend on her friend birthday gift is .

Jordan can still spend at most $30 on her friends birthday gift.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total money need to spend at most = $45

Money spent on Yoga ball = $15

We need to find how much money she can still spend on her friend birthday gift.

Solution:

Let the money she can still spend on her friend birthday gift be 'x'.

So we can say that;

Money spent on Yoga ball plus money she can still spend on her friend birthday gift should be less than or equal to Total money need to spend.

framing in equation form we get;

The Inequality representing money she can still spend on her friend birthday gift is .

On solving the the above Inequality we get;

we will subtract both side by 15 using subtraction property of Inequality.

Hence Jordan can still spend at most $30 on her friends birthday gift.
