A new Youth Activity Center is being built in Hadleyville. The perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 430 yards. The length of the field is 5 yards less than quadruple the width. What are the dimensions of the

playing field?

The width is yards.

The length is yards.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Width = 44 yards

Length = 171 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of the rectangular field = 430 yards.

Let:

The length of the field be L

The width of the field be W.

From the question:

The length of the field is 5yards less than quadruple the width. This implies that;

L = 4W - 5

But.

Perimeter (P) of a rectangle is given by:

P = 2(L + W)       ---------------(i)

Substitute the values of P = 430, L = 4W - 5 and W into equation (i) as follows;

430 = 2(4W - 5 + W)

430 = 2(5W - 5)

430 = 10W - 10

10W = 430 + 10

10W = 440

Divide both sides by 10

W = 44

Therefore, the width of the field is 44 yards.

Remember that,

L = 4W - 5          

[Now substitute W = 44]

L = 4(44) - 5

L = 176 - 5

L = 171

Therefore, the length of the field is 171 yards

a carpenter has a wooden dowel that is 96 cm long. she wants to cut it into two pieces so that one piece is 5 times as long as the other. what is the length of the longer piece? ​

Answers

Answer:

30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem (word problem), we are examined on how to express equations from words.

let us initialize some variables

let the length of the first piece (the short piece) be x

and that of the second(the longer piece) be 5x

given that the total length is 96 cm

Also from the problem statement, the total length can be expressed as

5x+x= 96

6x= 96

divide both sides by 6 to solve for x

x= 96/6

x= 16

now the longer side = 5x

        the longer side= 5*6

       the longer side = 30 cm

Answers

Answer:

Length of the square poster = 6.1 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a square poster = 37 in^2

Area of a square = length^2

37 = lenght ^2

Find the square root of both sides

√37 = √ length ^2

Length = 6.0828 in

Approximately

Length of the square poster = 6.1 in

if the sides of a triangle are produced in order prove that the sum ofexterior angles so formed is equal to four right angles

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a, b, c be the measures of the interior angles and x, y, z be the measures of the exterior angles of the triangle. Where x and adjacent to a, y is adjacent to b and z is adjacent to c.

By interior angle sum postulate of a triangle:

a + b + c = 180°... (1)

Therefore, by remote interior angle theorem:

x = b + c.... (2)

y = a + c..... (3)

z = a + b.... (4)

Adding equations (2), (3) & (4)

x + y + z = b + c + a + c + a + b

x + y + z = 2a + 2b + 2c

x + y + z = 2(a + b + c)... (5)

From equations (1) & (5)

[tex]x + y + z = 2 \times 180 \degree \\ x + y + z = 360 \degree \\ x + y + z = 4 \times 90\degree \\ x + y + z = 4 \: right \: angles[/tex]

Thus, the sum of exterior angles so formed is equal to four right angles.

Answer:

Pete's: [tex]f(x) = 20x + 60[/tex]

Carla's: [tex]f(x) = 40x + 20[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that [tex]x[/tex] is the amount of rooms painted, and [tex]f(x)[/tex]

For Pete's Painting Company, they charge a flat fee of $60, so we will have a constant of 60.

They also charge 20$ per room, meaning that we will multiply 20 by [tex]x[/tex], the amount of rooms painted.

This gets us the function [tex]f(x) = 20x + 60[/tex]

For Carla's Creative Colors, they charge 20$ to hire the workers, meaning this will be our constant.

They also charge $40 a room, meaning we will multiply 40 by [tex]x[/tex], the amount of rooms painted.

So the function is  [tex]f(x) = 40x + 20[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

1) get rid of the parenthesis by distributing the 2. You will get 8x-6-8=4+2x

2) Now combine like term on each side of the equal sign. You will get 8x-14=4+2x

3) Move the 14 to the right side of the equation making it +14 and move your 2x to the left side of the equation making it -2x. You will get 8x-2x=4=+14

4) calculate each side. You will get 6x=18

she says "I can multiply both sides by X and get the linear equation 1 + 3x = 3 whose solution is x = 2/3 ."
which of the following statements makes this a correct argument, or shows that it is in correct? Select all that apply.

a. you cannot multiply both sides by x because you do not know what x is.

b. you can assume x = 0 because both sides are undefined if x = 0

c. after multiplying both sides by X you need to subtract 1 from both sides.

d. the equation is not linear, so you cannot use the methods normally used for solving linear equations.

Answers

Answer:

a. you cannot multiply both sides by x because you do not know what x is.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]\frac{1}{x} + 3 = \frac{3}{x}[/tex]

Required

Select which of the option that applies

Considering (a):

A is incorrect:

Because: Multiplying both sides by x has nothing to do with whether the value of x is known or not

Considering (b):

B is incorrect:

Substitute 0 for x in the given expression

[tex]\frac{1}{0} + 3 = \frac{3}{0}[/tex]

[tex]Und efi ned[/tex]

Both sides of the equation are undefined

However, you cannot assume x to be 0

Considering (c):

C is correct:

Start by multiplying both sides by x

[tex]x (\frac{1}{x} + 3) = \frac{3}{x} * x[/tex]

[tex]1 + 3x = 3[/tex]

Then, subtract 1 from both sides

[tex]1 - 1 + 3x = 3 - 1[/tex]

[tex]3x = 2[/tex]

Divide through by 3

[tex]x = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Considering (d):

D is incorrect;

Because, the equation is linear
