Answer:

32 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

find the area of the large rectangle:

30 x 16 = 480

find the area of the small rectangle:

10 x 8 = 80

subract the small rectangle from the big rectangle to get the area of the shaded region:

480 - 80 = 400

now plug this area and the height into the equation for triangle area:

A = bh/2

400 = b(25)/2 multiply both sides by 2

2(400) = 2(25b/2)

800 = 25b divide both sides by 25

800/25 = 25b/25

32 = b

For this case we have that the area of the shaded region is given by the subtraction of the large rectangle minus the small rectangle.

A_ {sr} = 30 * 16-10 * 8\\A_ {sr} = 480-80\\A_ {sr} = 400

Thus, the area of the shaded region is 400 \ ft ^ 2

If the triangle must have the same area and a height of 25, then we have:

400 = \frac {1} {2} b * 25\\400 = 12.5b

Dividing between 12.5 on both sides of the equation:

b = 32

Thus, the base of the triangle is 32.

Answer:

32

How do you solve this equation: -2m+3=|15+m|
Elden [556K]

Any number inside the modulus sign becomes positive. This means |15+m|=|-(15+m)|=|-15-m| and so we have,

-2m+3=|15+m| \Rightarrow \left \Big\{ {{-2m+3=15+m} \atop{-2m+3=-15-m}} \right

Solving these gives us

-2m+3=15+m \Rightarrow m=-4

-2m+3=-15-m \Rightarrow = m=18

However if we check the second solution in the original equation we obtain -2(18)+3=|15+18| \Rightarrow -33=33. This is false and so m=18 can't be a solution.

Therefore the only solution is m=-4.

(Note: I'm not sure why the second solution didn't work but when there's a modulus sign involved it always pays to check your final answers to be sure. I'll have a think about it but in case you find out before I do, I'd be interested to know in the comments.)

A company makes three sizes of juice bottles: small, medium, and large.
Ivahew [28]

An expression in terms of s that represents the number of large bottles is :  L = (\frac{15s}{2} /3})

<h3>Ratio of different sizes of bottles </h3>

The company makes s small bottles every minute

let ; M represent the number of medium bottles made every minute

L represent the number of large bottles made every minute

small bottles to medium =  2 : 3

small bottles to medium =  s : M

M is the unknown, so to find how many medium bottles that has been made,  we must cross multiply

2M = 3s

M = \frac{3s}{2}  medium bottles made every minute

medium bottles to large bottles =  3 : 5

medium bottles to large bottles =  M : L

where M = \frac{3s}{2}

The equation becomes:

           3 : 5

           \frac{3s}{2} : L

L is the unknown, so to find how many Large bottles that has been made,  we must cross multiply

3L =( \frac{3s}{2} ) * 5

L = (\frac{15s}{2} /3})

L = ( \frac{5}{2} s)

L = 2.5 s

therefore the large bottles the company makes every minute is 2.5s large bottles

we can conclude that the expression for the number of large bottles the company makes every minute with respect to s is : L = 2.5 s
