Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = w

Length = w + 6

Area = 112 sq. cm

length * width = 112

(w +6 ) *w = 112

w²  +6w -112 = 0

Sum = 6

Product = -112

Factors = 14 , -8    {14 - 8 = 6 , (-8)*14 = -112}

w² +  14w - 8w -112 = 0

w(w + 14) - 8(w + 14)=0

(w +14)(w -8) = 0   {Ignore w + 18 as measurement won't be negative}

w - 8 = 0

w = 8 ft

Length = 8 + 6 = 14 ft

I don't know if it's right but this is what I did. the rounding might be a little different.


(1 + 3.5)  \div 2 \times x = 8.1
4.5   \div 2 = 2.3
2.3x = 8.1
8.1 \div 2.3 = 3.5
x=3.5 cm.

You work for a small business that sells bicycles, tricycles, and tandem bicycles (bicycles built for two). Bicycles have one se
Hatshy [7]
Part A: each tricycle has three wheels, so with 48 wheels the number of tricycles was a =48/3=16 tricycles.
t=w/3 (the number of tricycles is the number of wheels divided by 3)

Part B:
The number of seats:
24=b+a (so b=24-a)
The number of seats is the sum of one seat per bicycle and one seat per a tricycle

also, 61=2a+3b (the number of wheels)

So we have:
24=b+a
 b=24-a
We can substitute this for b:

61=2a+3(24-a)

and solve:
61=2a+3*24-3a
61=72-a
a=72-61
a=11

There were 11 bicycles!!
and there were 24-11 tricycles, so 13 tricycles.

Part C: each of the bikes has only one  front-steering handlebar, so there were a total of 144 vehicles:

a+b+c=144

There were 378 pedals. And the number of pedals is:
2a+2b+4c=378 (the numbers 2,2,4 represent the number of pedals per vehicle)

divide by 2:
a+b+2c=189

Now, we have
a+b+2c=189
and

 a+b+c=144
and we can subtract them from each other:
a+b+c-(a+b+2c)=144-189
-c=45
c=45, so there were 45 tandem bicycles!
(this also means that a+b=144-45, that is a+b=99)
now the wheels:
3a+2b+2c=320
Let's substitute c:
3a+2b+90=320

which is
3a+2b=240
We also know that a+b=99, so we can substract this from this equation:
3a+2b+-a-b=240-99
2a+b=141

and again:
2a+b-a-b=141-99
a=42 - there were 42 trycicles!!!

And the bicycles were the rest:
99-42=57 bycicles

M ozp=4r+2,m pzq=5r-12, and m ozq=125. What are m ozp and m pzq
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:  ∠OZP = 62     ∠PZQ = 63

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use the Angle Addition Postulate

∠OZP  +  ∠PZQ  =  ∠OZQ

(4r + 2) + (5r - 12) = 125

                9r - 10 = 125

                9r        = 135

                         r = 15

∠OZP = 4r + 2

          = 4(15) + 2

          =  60 + 2

          =   62

∠PZQ = 5r - 12

          = 5(15) - 12

          =  75 - 12

          =  63

Function f is defined by the equation f (x) = x^2. <br> What is f (3)<br> PLZ HURRY
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

f(3) = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x^2

f(3) means "When x is 3" So, we substitute x with 3.

f(3) = 3^2

f(3) = 3 x 3 = 9

f(3) = 9
