Alex and Marianne were comparing the distances they could skip rocks.

Mathematics

aksik [14]2 years ago

Answer:

Alex's rock

Step-by-step explanation:

Marianne's distance: 15 inches 4 times = 15 * 4 = 60 inches

we can convert Marianne's distance to feet so we can easily compare it to Alex's

12 inches = 1 foot

1 foot/12 inches = 1. We divide by inches and not feet so that the inches cancel out, as can be seen in the calculations below.

60 inches * 1 = 60 inches * 1 foot/12 inches  = 5 feet

7 feet > 5 feet

Alex's rock skipped the furthest

<span>60 Sorry, but the value of 150 you entered is incorrect. So let's find the correct value. The first thing to do is determine how large the Jefferson High School parking lot was originally. You could do that by adding up the area of 3 regions. They would be a 75x300 ft rectangle, a 75x165 ft rectangle, and a 75x75 ft square. But I'm lazy and another way to calculate that area is take the area of the (300+75)x(165+75) ft square (the sum of the old parking lot plus the area covered by the school) and subtract 300x165 (the area of the school). So (300+75)x(165+75) - 300x165 = 375x240 - 300x165 = 90000 - 49500 = 40500 So the old parking lot covers 40500 square feet. Since we want to double the area, the area that we'll get from the expansion will also be 40500 square feet. So let's setup an equation for that: (375+x)(240+x)-90000 = 40500 The values of 375, 240, and 90000 were gotten from the length and width of the old area covered and one of the intermediate results we calculated when we figured out the area of the old parking lot. Let's expand the equation: (375+x)(240+x)-90000 = 40500 x^2 + 375x + 240x + 90000 - 90000 = 40500 x^2 + 615x = 40500 x^2 + 615x - 40500 = 0 Now we have a normal quadratic equation. Let's use the quadratic formula to find its roots. They are: -675 and 60. Obviously they didn't shrink the area by 675 feet in both dimensions, so we can toss that root out. And the value of 60 makes sense. So the old parking lot was expanded by 60 feet in both dimensions.</span>

Need help on geometry please right answer only I’m giving out 40 points

Answer: first option 392.699 square feet.


Explanation:

1) The shape of the sidewalk is an ring with exterior radius equal to the radious of the fountain + 5 feet and inner radius equal to the radius of the fountain.

2) The area of such ring is equal to the area of the outer circle less the area of the inner circle (the fountain)

Area of a circle = π × r²

Area of the outer circle: π (10ft +  5 ft)² = π (15 ft)² = 225 π ft²

Area of the inner circle = π (10ft)² = 100 π ft²

Area of the ring  (sidewald) = 225π ft² - 100π ft² = 125π ft² = 392.699 ft²

A certain number was multiplied by 7. 4 was taken away from the product. Finally, that difference was then divided by 9, resulti
marin [14]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we have to work backwards. If you divide something by 9, and it equals 5, to figure out the number, we need to multiply by 9. 5*9= 45. If four was taken away, we have to add it to 45, which is 49. If a number *7 is 49, then we have to divide by 7 to get the answer. 49/7=7

5/7 divided by 20/5 <br> then simply it completely
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

5 / 28

Step-by-step explanation:

5/7 ÷ 20/5

= 5/7 x  5/20

= (5 x 5) / (7 x 20)

= 25 / 140    (divide numerator and denominator by 5)

= 5 / 28
