Answer:

C. x = 4√70

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x, we would apply the leg rule.

Leg rule is:

Hypotenuse/leg = leg/part

Hypotenuse = 36 + 20 = 56

Leg = x

Part = 20

Plug in the values into the equation

Thus, we would have:

56/x = x/20

Cross multiply

x*x = 56*20

x² = 1,120

x = √1,120

x = √(16*70)

x = 4√70

The perimeter of a rectangle equals one and a half times its area. Express the length of the rectangle in terms of the width (us

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x and y be length and width of rectangle.

Perimeter=2(x+y)

area=xy

2(x+y)=1/2 xy

4(x+y)=xy

4x+4y=xy

x y-4y=4 x

y(x-4)=4 x

$y=\frac{4x}{x-4}$

Ten members of the academic team went to a local restaurant after their contest. Each meal combo that came with soda cost $6.75,

Aneli [31]

Answer:

7 ordered with Soda;

3 ordered with water

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$m \to$ With water

$n \to$ With Soda

So:

$m + n =10$ --- total

$5m + 6.75n = 62.25$ -- cost

Required

Find m and n

$m + n =10$

Make m the subject

$m = 10 - n$

Substitute $m = 10 - n$ in $5m + 6.75n = 62.25$

$5(10-n) +6.75n = 62.25$

$50-5n +6.75n = 62.25$

Collect like terms

$-5n +6.75n = 62.25 - 50$

$-5n +6.75n = 12.25$

$1.75n = 12.25$

Solve for n

$n = 12.25/1.75$

$n = 7$

$m = 10 - n$

$m = 10 - 7$

$m =3$

The length of a rectangle is 5.5 feet. If the area is 44 square feet, what is the width of the rectangle, in feet?

vlabodo [156]

So area is length times width therefore
A=LW
44ft^2=5.5W
divide both sides by 5.5
44/5.5=Width=8 feet
