Answer:
252 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall area of regular polygon is A= (1/2)*(perimeter)*(apothem)
Area = (1/2)*(63)*(7)
= 252 in²
A = l x w
so you know that the length is 3m longer than the width, so you could use a formula to represent that
w = l + 3
you then substitute the second equation into the first to solve for l
70 = l x (l +3)
70 = l^2 + 3l
you could then rearrange the formula and solve for l using the quadratic formula
0 = l^2 + 3l - 70
l = -3 +- (square root (3)^2 - 4(1)(70)) / 2(1)
l = -3 +- (square root 9 + 280) / 2
l = -3 +- (square root 289) / 2
l = -3 +- 17 / 2
then you solve for the two seperate roots
l = -3 + 17 /2
l = 14 / 2
l = 7
or
l = -3 - 17 / 2
l = -20 / 2
l = -10
since a length cannot be negative, this root is not viable. therefore l = 7
to solve for w you would use
w = l + 3
w = 7 + 3
w = 10

Answer:
2500 tiles
Step-by-step explanation:
convert the path to the same units, one m = 100 cm
path= 500 cm x 300 cm
path area = 150,000 cm^2
each tile = 10x6 = 60 cm^2
150,000/60 = 2500 tiles
Answer:
x=4.0625 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the two legs.
Not knowing which is the hypotenuse, lets assume that (x+5)cm is the hypotenuse:
(x+5)^2= 9^2+(x-3)^2
(x^2+10x+25)=81+(x^2-6x+9)
x^2+10x+25=81+x^2-6x+9
16x=65
x=4.0625
Checking:
(4.0625+5)^2=9^2+(4.0625-3)^2
82.1289=82.1289
