Answer:
A = 20.5 sq units
Step-by-step explanation:
you have the height of 5 but need to figure out the base
we can use the Pythagorean Theorem two times to find it
1) a² + 5² = 7²
a² = 49-25
a =
=
·
= 2
2) b² + 5² = 6²
b² = 36-25
b = 
Base = 2
+ 
A = 1/2 x 5· (2
+
)
A = 2.5 · (2
+
)
A = 2.5(8.2)
A = 20.5
8<-5x+20 is one possible answer. it depends on how they are writing it. you need to do the distributed property.
Answer:
Bobby around 131 minutes and Billy around 111 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the problem it is important to raise equations regarding what happens.
They tell us that Billy (Bi) and Bobby (Bo) can mow the lawn in 60 minutes. That is to say that what they prune in a minute is giving as follows:
1 / Bo + 1 / Bi = 1/60 (1)
They say Billy could mow the lawn only in 20 minutes less than it would take Bobby, therefore
1 / Bi = 1 / (Bo-20) (2)
Replacing (2) in (1) we have:
1 / Bo + 1 / (Bo-20) = 1/60
Resolving
(Bo - 20 + B0) / (Bo * (Bo-20) = 1/60
120 * Bo - 1200 = Bo ^ 2 - 20Bo
Rearranging:
Bo ^ 2 - 140Bo -1200 = 0
Now applying the general equation
Bo = 130.82 or Bo = 9.17, <em>this last value cannot be because Billy took 20 minutes less and neither can he prune faster than the two together</em>, therefore Bobby only takes around 131 minutes and Billy around 111 minutes
Checking with equation 1:
1/131 +1/111 = ~ 1/60
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Well we can find how far he travels in 55 seconds if he swims at constant speed of 5/3 meters.
5/3 times 55 = approx. 91.66 meters
Therefore Xavier will not quality for the national Swim Meet because he didn't swim 100 meters in 55 seconds
