Answer:
2 and 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
1 and 2/3 = 5/3.
when dividing fractions, invert and multiply.
5/3x5/4=25/12
=2 and 1/12
A = LW
A = 72
L = W + 1
72 = W(W + 1)
72 = W^2 + W
W^2 + W - 72 = 0
(W + 9)(W - 8) = 0
W + 9 = 0
W = -9......extraneous solution...does not work here
W - 8 = 0
W = 8 <==
L = W + 1
L = 8 + 1
L = 9
so the width (W) is 8 ft and the Length is 9 ft
Answer:
if we take the number of quarters Barrett have to be x we know Penelope has twice that ie 2x. so in total they have 2x+x = 60, 3x = 60; so x= 60/3 = 20.
Barrett has 20 quarters.
Answer:
21 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question, we would be using the proportion
Shadow /Height
From the question:.
Manny's shadow = 414 feet
Manny's Height = 512 feet
Height of the tree = ? = x
Shadow of the tree = 17 feet
Hence:
414/512 = 17/ x
Cross Multiply
414 × x = 512 × 17
x = 512 × 17/414
x = 21.024154589 feet
x ≈ Approximately = 21 feet
The height of the tree = 21 feet
