Answer: x = 7</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
The largest rectangle (composed of the green and yellow sections combined) has area of 11*12 = 132 cm^2.
The yellow region takes up 112 of those 132 sq cm. This must mean the green region takes up 132-112 = 20 cm^2.
The horizontal portion of the green rectangle is 12-x cm. The vertical portion is 11-x cm. We can form the area of the green rectangle as an algebraic expression like so
area = length*width
area = (11-x)*(12-x)
area = 132 - 11x - 12x + x^2 .... apply the FOIL rule
area = x^2 - 23x + 132
Set this equal to the 20 cm^2 we found earlier.
x^2 - 23x + 132 = 20
x^2 - 23x + 132-20 = 0
x^2 - 23x + 112 = 0
We could factor or we could use the quadratic formula. I'll go with the second option.
We'll plug in a = 1, b = -23, c = 112
One of these solutions isn't feasible. Note how if x = 16, then this exceeds both the 11 cm and 12 cm sides. So this x value is not possible.
However, x = 7 is possible.
If x = 7, then the horizontal portion of the green rectangle is 12-x = 12-7 = 5 cm. Also, the vertical portion of the green rectangle would be 11-x = 11-7 = 4 cm. The area then is length*width = 5*4 = 20 cm^2 which matches up with what we got earlier. So the answer is confirmed.
Hope you understand it and see what I did.
Answer:
The radius of the circle ,r= 1.43 m
The length of the side of square ,a= 2.77 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
L= 20 m
Lets take radius of the circle =r m
The total parameter of the circle = 2π r
Area of circle ,A=π r²
The side of the square = a m
The total parameter of the square = 4 a
Area of square ,A'=a²
The total length ,L= 2π r+ 4 a
20 = 2π r+ 4 a
r=3.18 - 0.63 a
The total area = A+ A'
A" =π r² +a²
A"= 3.14(3.18 - 0.63 a)² + a²
For minimize the area
3.14 x 2(3.18 - 0.63 a) (-0.63) + 2 a = 0
3.14 x (3.18 - 0.63 a) (-0.63) + a = 0
-6.21 + 1.24 a + a=0
2.24 a = 6.21
a=2.77 m
r= 3.18 - 0.63 a
r= 3.18 - 0.63 x 2.77
r=1.43 m
Therefore the radius of the circle ,r= 1.43 m
The length of the side of square ,a= 2.77 m
Answer:
The new mean for the exam scores is 51
Step-by-step explanation:
the mean can be calculated using the formula
mean of scores = 
before the 20 points was added, the mean of the score was = 50.
Inserting this into the formula, we have:
50 = 
from this, we can compute the sum total of the scores as
sum total = 50 × 20 = 1000
when the extra 20 marks is added, the sum of the entire scores will be changed to 1000 + 20 = 1020.
Hence the new mean will be computed as (New Sum total of scores / Number of students)
= 
= 51.
∴ The new mean of the scores is = 51
Answer:
1st question: y=1/3x-1
2nd question: y=-2/3x+9
Step-by-step explanation:
Y=mx+b form is what you are using
when a line in parallel to a line they have the same slop wich is m
when a line in perpendicular they have the opposite reciprocal
Examples: 2/5 opposite reciprocal would be -5/2
