Step-by-step explanation:

so let's say that the width is x then the length is x+15

and the area of a square is length times width

x(x+15)=100

x^2+15x-100=0

(x+20)(x-5)=0

x=5 or x=-20 but a side length can't be negative so x would equal 5

Length=x+15 with 5 as x

Length=20

Width=5

Hope that helps :)

Answer:

Let the Width be x then ATQ ,length would be x+15

Area of a Rectangle

length \times width

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 15) \times x = 100 \\ x {}^{2}  + 15x = 100 \\ x {}^{2}  + 15x - 100 = 0 \\ x {}^{2}   +  20x - 5x - 100 = 0 \\ x(x  +  20) - 5x(x + 20) \\ (x - 5)(x + 20) \\ so...... \\ x = 5 \:

<h2>x = 5=> Width</h2><h2>x +15 = 20=> Length </h2>

Bill needs to find the area of the ground covered by a conical tent. The tent is 12 feet tall and makes a 70° angle with the gro
LiRa [457]

To get the area of the cone we need to find the radius first.

tan 70=r/12

r=12tan 70

area of a circle is given by:

A=πr²

thus the area of the ground covered by the tent will be:

A=π(12tan70)²

The answer is  

A] A=π(12tan70°)²

insens350 [35]

Answer:

1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

If you focus on one of the coordinates, for example (10,10) you will notice that 10 divided by 5 equals 2.  If you do that on both X and Y it will give you 2.  The black shape's top right cordinate is (2,2) which explains why its 1/5...

Can I plz have it!

The volume of a cube is 8cm3, find the length of one of it's sides​
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

The side length is 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is s^3

V = s^3

8 = s^3

Take the cube root of each side

8 ^ 1/3 = s^3 ^ 1/3

2 = s

The side length is 2 cm
