Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x,y be the sides of court.

2(x+y)=90

x+y=90/2=45

y=45-x

xy=500

x(45-x)=500

45x-x²=500

x²-45x+500=0

x²-25x-20x+500=0

x(x-25)-20(x-25)=0

(x-25)(x-20)=0

x=25,20

when x=25

y=45-x=45-25=20

when x=20

y=45-20=25

sides are 25 ft,20 ft.

Answer:

20 by 25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A = L·w

P = 2L + 2w

500 = Lw

90 = 2L + 2w

we could solve the first equation for 'w' and then substitute that value into the second equation:

w = 500/L

90 = 2L + 2(500/L)

90 = 2L + 1000/L

90 = (2L² + 1000)/L

multiply each side by L to eliminate it as the denominator

90L = 2L² + 1000

2L² - 90L + 1000

the zeros of this quadratic are 20 and 25

A = 20 x 25 which equals 500

P = 2(20) + 2(25) which equals 90

1. One week Carlos bought 3 bags of Tabitha Tidbits and 4 bags of Figaro Flakes for $43.00. The next week he bought 3 bags of Ta
d1i1m1o1n [39]
Tabitha Tidbits costs $7 per bag, and Figaro Flakes is $5.50 per bag.
You need to set up a system of equations. Use "x" for Tabitha Tidbits and "y" for Figaro Flakes, and let the total cost of each trip equal c. Using the equation ax+by=c, substitute the cost of each trip in for c, and the number of bags for each food for a and b respectively. The two equations will be:
3x+4y=43
3x+6y=54
Isolate x in the first equation and you will get:
x=(43-4y)/3
Substitute the above equation for x into the other equation:
3*((43-4y)/3)+6y=54
Isolate y in this equation, and you will get 11/2, which is 5.5
So the cost of one bag of Figaro Flakes is $5.50
Now substitute this into the equation where you isolated x:
(43-4(5.5))/3
You will get x=7, so a bag of Tabitha Tidbits is $7

Savatey [412]
If you would like to know how many papers will be missing the name, you can calculate this using the following steps:

30% of 200 homework papers = 30% * 200 = 30/100 * 200 = 60 homework papers

The correct result would be a) between 50 and 70 papers will be missing the name.

BRAINLEIST!!!! You have a credit card with a balance of $754.43 at a 13.6% APR. You have $300.00 available each month to save or
Alex
We are given
P = $754.43
r = 13.6% annual

for a.
A = 150
for b.
A = 300

First, change the interest into effective monthly
i = (1 + 0.136/12)^12 - 1
Solve for i

Next, use the general formula
A = P i ( 1 + i)^n / (1 + 1)^n - 1
Subsitute P, i, and A for a and b.
Then, solve for n for a and b.
