X=length
y=width
Area (rectangle)=length x width
we suggest this system of equations:
y=x/5
xy=9/20
solve this system of equations by substitution method:
x(x/5)=9/20
x²/5=9/20
Least common multiple=20
4x²=9
x²=9/4
x=⁺₋√(9/4)
we have two solutions:
x₁=-3/2 it does not validate
x₂=3/2 ⇒y=x/5=(3/2)/5=3/10
The dimensions of the lake are:
lengh=3/2 miles
width=3/10 miles
to check:
Area=3/2 miles x 3/10 miles=9/20 miles².
width is 1/5 the length of the lake ⇒ 3/10 miles=(3/2) /5 miles
9 divided by 13 = 9/13
None of the answer above
Should be: 9 • 1/13
Answer:
x = 15°
Step-by-step explanation:
<em><u>The segment is a diameter, So let us assume the part in which there lies the triangle as a semicircle.</u></em>
=> <em>A triangle inscribed in a semi-circle will always have one of its angle equal to 90</em>
=> <em>So the angle (not 75 and x) is 90 degrees.</em>
<em>=> To find the value of x, we'll subtract rest of the angles from 180 degrees (because the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°)</em>
<em>So,</em>
=> x = 180-90-75
=> x = 15°
Answer:
737 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know that he drove 871 miles in 13 hours so first you want to do 871 divided by 13 and get 67 which means he drove 67 miles in one hour. Finally you just have to multiply 67 by 11 and get 737.
Y-3=4/11(x-11). Doing a problem like this is mostly memorizing point slope formula, by knowing y-y2=m(x-x1) you can just "plug" in 3 as your y1 and 11 as your x1 then finally 4/11 as your slope being y-3=4/11(x-11)
