Answer:

Dimensions are 12 , 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangular mural = length * width

length * width = 60 square feet

(x + 10)(x + 3) = 60

Use FOIL method

x*x + x*3 + 10*x + 10*3 = 60

x² + <u>3x + 10x</u> + 30 = 60      {Combine like terms}

x² +<u> 13x</u> + 30 - 60 = 0

x² + 13x - 30 = 0

Sum = 13

Product = -30

Factors =  15 , -2     (15+ (-2) = 13 ; 15*(-2) = -30)

x² + 15x - 2x - 30 =0  {Rewrite middle terms}

x(x + 15) - 2(x + 15) = 0

(x + 15)(x - 2) =0

x - 2 = 0             {Ignore (x +15) as dimensions wont have a negative value}

x = 2

x + 10 = 2 + 10 = 12

x + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5

Dimensions are 12 , 5

Find the length of Arc YWV, if line XZ=12 meters. (Round to the nearest hundredth)
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

53.62 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of arc = θ/360 × 2πr

r = XZ = 12 m

m<XYZ = 180 - 108 = 72° (angles on a straight line)

θ = 85° + 72° + 108° = 265°

Length of arc YWV = 256/360 × 2 × π × 12

= 53.6165146 ≈ 53.62 m (nearest hundredth)

A flower bed is in the shape of a triangle with one side twice the length of the shortest side and the third side is 18 feet mor
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

42 ft, 60 ft, 84 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the shortest side , then the other 2 sides are 2x and x + 18, so

x + 2x + x + 18 = 186 , that is

4x + 18 = 186 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

4x = 168 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 42

Then lengths of sides are

x = 42 ft

2x = 2 × 42 = 84 ft

x + 18 = 42 + 18 = 60 ft
