Lets write as an equation the info provided in the problem:
original area = 200*300 = 60000 squared meters
Adding x meters to the length is: 300 + x
Adding x meters to the width is: 200 + x
If the area doubles in size we have: 2*<span>60000
Now writing as a single equation all info:
(300 + x)(200 + x) = 120000
We have to make the operations and solve:
60000 + 300x + 200x + x^2 = </span><span>120000
x^2 + 500x - 60000 = 0
This is a squared trinomial, to solve it we need two numbers that subtracted give us 500 and multiplied -60000:
(x + 600)(x -100) = 0
So there are two solutions, x = -600 and x = 100, we choose the positive one:
x = 100
thererefore the value of x is 100 meters</span>
I'm may not be that good at math, but I'm going to try my best to help you, because I know how it feels to be in this situation!
The first one :
You might be right on D. But I'm thinking B also. The question asks "Which could be a cross section of a rectangular pyramid that has been intersected by a plane perpendicular". But a triangle is basically a flat pyramid.
(I'm typing really fast to help!!!!)
Second one: Its B!! Look at it really closely! You'll get it!!!
(Going really fast now!!!!)
Third one: Between B or D!!! But I think you're right on your choice!!!!
(FASTER FASTER!!!)
FINALLY: Copy and paste your answers into google. People have asked the same question!
I hope I helped. I don't want to make you fail, as I am in the SAME similar situation as you! I really REALLY REALLY HOPE YOU PASS!!!
Answer:
65 pairs
Step-by-step explanation:
Black makes up 5/(5+8) = 5/13 of the total order, so ...
(5/13)(169 pairs) = 65 pairs
Vinny will order 65 pairs of black high tops.
