Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the next number be x

'taking half the number to get the next number. is expressed as;

1/2 of 16 = x

x = 1/2 *16

x = 16/2

x = 8

hence the next number will be 8

A rectangular swimming pool is twice as long as it is wide. A small concrete walkway surrounds the pool. The walkway is a 2 feet
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

The width and the length of the pool are 12 ft and 24 ft respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length (L) of the rectangular swimming pool is twice its wide (W):

L_{1} = 2W_{1}

Also, the area of the walkway of 2 feet wide is 448:

W_{2} = 2 ft

A_{T} = W_{2}*L_{2} = 448 ft^{2}

Where 1 is for the swimming pool (lower rectangle) and 2 is for the walkway more the pool (bigger rectangle).

The total area is related to the pool area and the walkway area as follows:

A_{T} = A_{1} + A_{w}    (1)          

The area of the pool is given by:

A_{1} = L_{1}*W_{1}        

A_{1} = (2W_{1})*W_{1} = 2W_{1}^{2}  (2)          

And the area of the walkway is:

A_{w} = 2(L_{2}*2 + W_{1}*2) = 4L_{2} + 4W_{1}    (3)          

Where the length of the bigger rectangle is related to the lower rectangle as follows:                  

L_{2} = 4 + L_{1} = 4 + 2W_{1}   (4)        

By entering equations (4), (3), and (2) into equation (1) we have:

A_{T} = A_{1} + A_{w}

A_{T} = 2W_{1}^{2} + 4L_{2} + 4W_{1}                

448 = 2W_{1}^{2} + 4(4 + 2W_{1}) + 4W_{1}            

224 = W_{1}^{2} + 8 + 4W_{1} + 2W_{1}

224 = W_{1}^{2} + 8 + 6W_{1}

By solving the above quadratic equation we have:

W₁ = 12 ft

Hence, the width of the pool is 12 feet, and the length is:

L_{1} = 2W_{1} = 2*12 ft = 24 ft

Therefore, the width and the length of the pool are 12 ft and 24 ft respectively.

I hope it helps you!

Answer:

  (a)  169.1 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram shows you the distance (x) will be shorter than 170 m, but almost that length. The only reasonable answer choice is ...

  169.1 m

__

The relevant trig relation is ...

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

The leg of the right triangle adjacent to the marked angle is x, and the hypotenuse is 170 m. Putting these values into the equation, you have ...

  cos(6°) = x/(170 m)

  x = (170 m)cos(6°) ≈ (170 m)(0.994522) ≈ 169.069 m

The horizontal distance covered is about 169.1 meters.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Expressed as a percentage, the slope of this hill is tan(6°) ≈ 10.5%. It would be considered to be a pretty steep hill for driving.
