Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Original rectangle

L = 2*w

w = w

New rectangle

2w + 4

w - 3

Area New rectangle

(2w + 4)(w - 3) = 600               Remove the brackets

2w^2 - 6w + 4w - 12 = 600     Combine the left

2w^2 - 2w -  12 = 600             Subtract 600 from both sides

2w^2 - 2w - 600 - 12 = 0        Combine

2w^2 - 2w - 612 = 0                This factors.

(w- 18)(w + 17) = 0

w +  17 will produce nothing useful. What is - 17 m ? Can you measure it?

w = 18

check

Original Triangle

w = 18

L = 36

Derived Triangle

L = 36 + 4 = 40

w = 18 - 3 = 15

LW = 600

Answer

  • L = 40
  • W = 15

Suppose that w and t vary inversely and that t =1/5 when w = 4. Write a function that models the inverse variation, and find t w
Neko [114]
The correct answer to this question is this one: "4/45"

inverse variation ---> wt = constant let wt=k <span>put w=4, t= 1/5 and find k
</span>
So the correct answer for k is 4/5

wt = 4* (1/5) = 4/5 = k\
so your function is
wt = 4/5 or t= 4/(5w)

now to get t, when w=9, just put w=9 in t=4/(5w)
So that makes 4/45

What is the value of x?
Andru [333]

I'm sure you know the formula for Pythagoras Theorem.

The formula is a^{2} +b^{2} = c^{2}

C = Your hypotenuse

A + B = The other two adjacent sides.  

So you plug in the numbers

33^{2} + b^{2} =65^{2}

And you'll get the answer, which is 56.

Jamar drove 228 miles and used 6 gallons of gas.
Klio2033 [76]

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

well, it is kind of written already :

228 miles and 6 gallons.

so, miles/gallon = 228/6 = 38 miles/gallon.

b)

it is not mentioned, but I guess we have to assume that he got the same miles/gallon ratio on this trip as well.

so, again

38 miles/gallon

and he used 9 gallons.

so, he drove 38×9 = 342 miles
