Answer:

Width = 6.45 cm

Length = 8.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the sides of a rectangle are such that the width is three-quarters of the length. if the diagonal is 15cm find the length and the width.

From the question,

W = 3/4L

W = 3L/4

When given diagonal,

W² + L² = D²

Where, D = Diagonal

W = Width

L = Length

Hence, Substituting 3L/4 for W

(3L/4)² + L² = 15²

9L²/16 + L² = 225

L²(9/16 + 1) = 225

Divide both side by 9/16 + 1

L² = 225/(9/16 + 1)

Square root both side

L = √225/(9/16 + 1)

L = 15/3/4 + 1

L = 15 ÷ 1 3/4

L = 15 ÷ 7/4

L = 15 × 4/7

L = 8.6cm

W = 3L/4

W = 3(8.6)/4

W = 6.45cm

Answer:

8:07 am

Step-by-step explanation:

It takes 9 minutes to walk from his house to the bus station.  It then takes 92 minutes for the bus to travel from Birmingham to Coventry.  After arriving, he takes 12 minutes to reach his workplace.  This takes a total of 113 minutes.

9 + 92 + 12 = 113

Convert 113 minutes to hours and minutes.

113 - 60 = 53

1 hr and 53 min

He has to be at work by 10.  Subtract the time it takes to get to his work by the time he has to get there.

10 - 1 hr = 9

9 - 53 min = 8:07

The latest time he can leave is 8:07.

How do you find the minimum? It says the answer but I’m not sure how it is (4,-4)
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

You could use a graphing calculator to see the lowest point in the graph OR you could put that equation into it's completed squared form, which is (x-4)^2 -4. The opposite of -4 in the parentheses is positive 4, and the leftover -4 is the y value. So that also becomes (4,-4)
