Answer:

12, 1260

Step-by-step explanation:

Andrew paid $10 for a burger. The burger had a discount of 20%. This means that the $10 is 80% of the original price.

100% - 80% = 20%

To find the original price, you can multiply by 120%

10 * 120% = 12

Abby Matthews needs to mark up a refrigerator that costs $900 to 140% of the original price. To do this, you can directly multiply.

900 * 140% = 1260

You are making a walkway around part of a swimming pool. The dimensions of the swimming pool are 18 and 25, while the dimensions

vredina [299]

Answer:

$A = 4x^2 + 86x + 450$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Walkway = x$

$Length = 18$

$Width = 25$

Required:

The area of the swimming pool

Assume the walkway will be on the 4 sides of the swimming pool.

The total length (L) of the swimming pool will be:

$L = 18 + x + x$

$L = 18 + 2x$

The total width (W) will be:

$W = 25 + x + x$

$W = 25 + 2x$

The area (A) is:

$A = L * W$

$A = (18 + 2x) * (25 + 2x)$

Expand bracket

$A = 18 * 25 + 18 * 2x + 25 * 2x + 2x * 2x$

$A = 450 + 36x + 50x + 4x^2$

$A = 450 + 86x + 4x^2$

Reorder

$A = 4x^2 + 86x + 450$

A company plans to build a wheelchair ramp with the following

Liono4ka [1.6K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The height that would be allowed with a ramp 43.5 feet long is ...

h = (43.5 ft)·sin(4.8°) ≈ 3.64 ft

The proposed height is less than 3.64 ft, so the ramp angle is less than 4.8°.

The ramp angle is actually arcsin(3/43.5) ≈ 3.95°, which is less than 4.8°.

A seed company planted a floral mosaic of a national flag. The perimeter of flag is 2,340 ft determine the flag’s width and leng

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

Width: 450 feet

Length: 720 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

So we start with the equation to find the perimeter -

2l + 2w = p

l = length

w = width

p = perimeter

We insert the 2,340 ft as the perimeter -

2l + 2w = 2,340 ft

Now we find another equation for the "length is 270 ft greater than width" -

l = 270 ft + w

Using substitution, we substitute the y in the first equation with 270 ft + w -

2 (270 ft + w) + 2w = 2,340 ft

540 ft + 2w + 2w = 2,340 ft

540 ft + 4w = 2,340 ft

4w = 2,340 ft - 540 ft

4w = 1,800 ft

w = 1,800 ft / 4

w = 450 ft

Now to find the width we substitute the w with 450 ft -

l = 270 ft + w

l = 270 ft + 450 ft

l = 720 ft

Check -

2 * 720 ft + 2 * 450 ft = 2,340 ft

1,440 ft + 900 ft = 2,340 ft

2,340 ft = 2,340 ft (Correct)

LiRa [457]

Answer:

a. $V(x)=x(10-2x)(6-2x)$

b. $S(x)=4(15-x^2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of rectangular piece of cardboard= $10\times 6$

According to question

Length of box,l=10-2x

Breadth of box,b=6-2x

Height of box,h=x

Volume of box= $l\times b\times h$

Substitute the values in the formula

Volume of box= $x(10-2x)(6-2x)$

$V(x)=x(10-2x)(6-2x)$

b.Surface area of box= $2(b+l)h+lb$

Because the box has no lid

Substitute the values in the formula

Surface area of box= $2(10-2x+6-2x)x+(10-2x)(6-2x)$

Surface area of box= $2(16-4x)x+60-20x-12x+4x^2$

Surface area of box= $32x-8x^2+60-32x+4x^2$

Surface area of box= $60-4x^2=4(15-x^2)$

Surface area of box, S(x)= $4(15-x^2)$
