A 100-meter-long christmas train needs 30 seconds to cross a 400-meter-long bridge. assuming the train goes at a steady speed, h

san4es73 [151]

Length of train : 100
length of bridge : 400
distance covered by the train to cross the bridge : (100 + 400) = 500
time taken by the train to cross : 30

speed = distance / time
speed = 500/30
speed = 16.67 meters per second <===

The length of a 200 square foot rectangular vegetable garden is 4feet less than twice the width. Find the length and width of th

inna [77]

Answer:

Length = 18.099 ft

Width = 11.049 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length of the field be x ft

and the width be y ft

as per the condition given in problem

x=2y-4 -----------(A)

Also the area is given as 200 sqft

Hence

xy=200

Hence from A we get

y(2y-4)=200

taking 2 as GCF out

2y(y-2)=200

Dividing both sides by 2 we get

$y(y-2)=100$

$y^2-2y=100$

subtracting 100 from both sides

$y^2-2y-100=0$

Now we solve the above equation with the help of Quadratic formula which is given in the image attached with this for any equation in form

$ax^2+bx+c=0$

Here in our case

a=1

b=-1

c=-100

Putting those values in the formula and solving them for y

$y=\frac{-(-2)+\sqrt{(-2)^2-4 \times (-1) \times 100}}{2 \time 1}$

$y=\frac{-(-2)-\sqrt{(-2)^2-4 \times (-1) \times 100}}{2 \time 1}$

Solving first

$y=\frac{2+\sqrt{4+400}{2}$

$y=\frac{2+\sqrt{404}{2}$

$y=\frac{2+20.099}{2}$

$y=\frac{22.099}{2}$

$y=11.049$

Solving second one

$y=\frac{-(-2)-\sqrt{(-2)^2-4 \times (-1) \times 100}}{2 \time 1}$

$y=\frac{2-\sqrt{4+400}{2}$

$y=\frac{2-\sqrt{404}{2}$

$y=\frac{2-20.099}{2}$

$y=\frac{-18.99}{2}$

$y=-9.045$

Which is wrong as the width can not be in negative

Our width of the field is

y=11.099

Hence the length will be

x=2y-4

x=2(11.049)-4

x=22.099-4

x=18.099

Hence our length x and width y :

Length = 18.099 ft

Width = 11.049 ft
