The dimensions of the rectangular base will be 110ft by 330ft the length of the base measures less than 3 times the width

The formula for calculating the perimeter of the rectangular base is expressed as:

P = 2(L +W) where;

L is the length

W is the width

If the length of the base measures less than 3 times the width, then L < 3W

Given that Perimeter = 880feet

Substitute the given value into the formula to get the length

880 = 2(3W+W)

880 = 2(4W)

880 = 8W

W = 880/8

W = 110ft

Since L = 3W

L = 3(110)

L = 330ft

Hence  the dimensions of the base will be 110ft by 330ft

A prairie dog left its burrow 5 feet underground and started digging deeper into the ground. It digs straight down at a constant
SpyIntel [72]

Building and solving an equation to model the situation, it is found that it takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.

  • Initially, the dog is 5 feet underground.
  • Each minute, the dog goes 2 more feet underground.

Hence, the underground height of the dog after t seconds is given by:

h(t) = 5 + 2t

The time it takes for the dog to reach 13 feet underground is <u>t for which h(t) = 13</u>, hence:

h(t) = 5 + 2t

13 = 5 + 2t

2t = 8

t = \frac{8}{2}

t = 4

It takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.

The results of a swim <br> Wet are shown. Who swam faster explain your reasoning
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The Susana swam the fastest.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Speed</u> : It is defined as the distance traveled per unit time.

<u>Formula used</u> : Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

First we have to determine speed of the following persons.

<u>For Tawni :</u>

Distance = 50 m

Time = 40.8 s

1.225 m/s which is the speed of Tawni.

--

<u>For Pepita :</u>

Distance = 100 m

Time = 60.2 s

1.661 m/s which is the speed of Pepita

--

<u>For Susana :</u>

Distance = 200 m

Time = 112.4 s

1.779 m/s which is the speed of Susana

From this we conclude that, in this problem meter affects the response and the speed of Susana is more than the Pepita and Tawani.

Thus, Susana swam the fastest.
