Area = width * height
since the window is 20 inches higher than the width:
width +20 = height
640 = width * width+20
640 = width^2 +20*width
width^2 +20*width - 640 = 0
width = 17.203
**********************************************************
Double Check
if width = 17.203 then height = 37.203
area = 17.203 * 37.203 = 640 square inches Correct!!
Answer:
The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec
Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the side walk and y represent her walking speed
It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk
Distance = speed × time
176 = (x+y)×44
44x+44y = 176
x+y = 4 .......1
It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction).
21 = (y-x)7
7y - 7x = 21
y - x = 3 ......2
Add equation 1 to 2
2y = 7
y = 3.5 ft/sec
From equation 1
x + y = 4
x = 4 - 3.5 = 0.5
x = 0.5 ft/sec
The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec
Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec
Answer:
6.1 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
area of a triangle= 0.5b*h
b=2
h=6.1
6.1*2=12.2
12.2*0.5= 6.1
Answer:
20 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
x is 0 in the graph and y is 20
so 20 is your answer if 0 is x
