Answer:

B) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the triangles are similar, we can use a proportion to solve this.

11/6=33/3x-6

cross multiply

11(3x-6)=33*6

distribute and multiply

33x-66=198

add 66 on both sides

33x=264

divide 33 on both sides

x=8

The area of a playground is 336 yd2. The width of the playground is 5 yd longer than its length. Find the length and width of th
kondaur [170]
L=16
W=21

Set up a systems of equations: 
x=length 
y=width 

xy=336
x+5=y

Use substitution to solve: 
x(x+5)=336
x^2+5x=336 

Solve using factoring: 
x^2+5x-336=0
(x-16)(x+21)=0
x=16 and x= -21 
Since length can't be negative, l=16 

To find width, plug length into the first equation: 
(16)y=336
y=21 

So...
L=16

ASAP PLEASE HELP Find the​ x- and​ y-intercepts of the line that passes through the given points.
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

Set it up using the slope from the two points. (c - (-5))/3 - 1 = slope = (c + 5)/2. Now put this into slope intercept since they give you the y intercept of 7. y = x*(c + 5)/2 + 7. Now put in the point, (1,-5). -5 = 1*(c+5)/2 + 7. Subtract 7 from both sides. Now multiply through and you can solve for c.

If the diagonal path is 750 feet long and the width of the park is 450 feet, what is the length, in feet, of the park?
jarptica [38.1K]

This problem can be looked at like a right triangle, where the hypotenuse is 750 and one leg is 450.  Thus 450^2 + the length of the park^2 = 750 ^2.

202500 + the length of the park^2 = 562500

the length of the park^2 = 360000

the length of the park = 600

Hope it helps <3
