What is the area of the unshaded path

Mathematics
1 answer:
andre [41]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

114 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the black and white will both have the same area. and given that each path is 1 ft wide and initially 12 ft long we can slowly determine the area.

x times 1 will still equal x

12(1) still equals 12 so we can just write it as 12.

12+12+11+11+10+10+9+9+8+8+7+7= 114

where I came up with this? there are a total of 12 sides if you follow the black path. and by every 2 sides the path gets shorter by 1 foot.

the white side also has 12 sides if you look. therefore both the black and the white part of the shape will have an area of 114.

First, you must find the width of GHJK. Since the area of it is 84m², divide 84 by 7.
84÷7=12
So the width of GHJK is 12m.
Next, find the scale of GHJK to LMNP. Since the height of both are already available, you can divide 21÷7 to get 3
This means that to get the width of LMNP you must multiply the width of GHJK by 3.
12×3=36.
Now, to get the area of LMNP, multiply 21 by 36.

21×36=756

So, the area of LMNP is 756m². (Don't forget the units!>

The equation A = x(x-4) describes the area, A, of a rectangular flower garden, where x is the width in feet.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The flower garden width would be 6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 12 ft^2 = x(x + 4) becomes:

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0, or (by completing the square) x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4 - 12 = 0

Thus, we have (x + 2)^2 - 16 = 0, or (x + 2)^2 = 16

Taking the square root of both sides yields x + 2 = ±4.

In this context only a positive x value makes sense:  x = 2 + 4  =>  x = 6.

The flower garden width would be 6 ft.  The other dimension would be 6 - 4, or 2, ft.

10) Solve using any method<br> 10x+2y=42<br> 5x+y=20
KIM [24]

Answer:

no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

10x+2y=42

5x+y=20

Multiply the second equation by -2 to use elimination

-2(5x+y)=20*-2

-10x -2y = -40

Add this to the first equation

10x+2y=42

-10x -2y = -40

--------------------------

0 = 2

This is never true.  This means there are no solutions
