A rectangular carpet has a perimeter of 16m and area 15 m^2. Find the lengths of the carpets sides

Answers

Answer 1

While guessing and checking is one way to do this problem, I will show you how to do it algebraically.

Let one side be A

Let the other side be B

2(A+B)=16

A*B=15

First equation because the perimeter is 16 and the second because the area is 15. Now solve the system of equations

A+B=8

A=8-B

Substitute into equation two

B(8-B)=15

-B^2+8b-15=0

B^2-8b+15=0

(B+3)(B+5)=0

B=3,5

A=5,3 respectively

From this we can see that one side is 5 meters long while the other side is three meters long.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation

Since we're looking at a rectangle, let's consider its perimeter and area formulas.

Perimeter: 2x + 2y (A rectangle has four sides, with two equal sides, so this is x + x + y + y simplified)

Area: (x)(y) (length x breadth so, x times y)

So we have two equations: 2x + 2y = 16 and x*y = 15. Solve simultaneously. Refer to the attached image.

What is the approximate volume of the cone below?

Yep A.
419 cm3

B.
1,257 cm3

C.
2,094 cm3

D.
8,377 cm3

Answers

Answer:  Choice C

2,094 cm^3

==========================================================

Explanation:

The diameter of 20 cm divides in half to the radius r = 10 cm.

The height is h = 20 cm.

V = volume of the cone

V = (1/3)*pi*r^2*h

V = (1/3)*pi*10^2*20

V = 2,094.3951023932 is approximate

I used my calculator's stored version of pi when computing the volume

That value then rounds to 2,094 cm^3 when rounding to the nearest whole number.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-4,3) and is
perpendicular to the line 4x - 5y = 20?

Answers

Answer:

5x + 4y = - 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

4x - 5y = 20 ( subtract 4x from both sides )

- 5y = - 4x + 20 ( divide all terms by - 5 )

y = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] x - 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{\frac{4}{5} }[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] , thus

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 4, 3) into the partial equation

3 = 5 + c ⇒ c = 3 - 5 = - 2

y = - [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] x - 2 ← in slope- intercept form

Multiply through by 4

4y = - 5x - 8 ( add 5x to both sides )

5x + 4y = - 8 ← equation in standard form

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given numbers :-

⇒ 176, 231, 247, 256, 272, 299, 325, 343, 366, 375

⇒ Median = 272 + 299 / 2 = 285.5

⇒ Mean = 2890/10 = 289

(a) median if 375 becomes 265

⇒ 176, 231, 247, 256, 265, 272, 299, 325, 343, 366

⇒ New median = 265 + 272 / 2 = 268.5

⇒ Decreases by 17

(b) mean if 375 becomes 265

⇒ New mean = 2890 - 110 / 10 = 2780/10 = 278

⇒ Decreases by 11

Ray's favorite activity is taking a leisurely bike ride through the park after work. If he 326 burns calories every hour, how many hours does he need to ride in order to burn off an extra doughnut and large frozen latte that he ate that afternoon? The doughnut had 320 approximately calories, and the latte had 820 calories.

Answers

Answer: 3.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Ray's burns 326 calories every hour. We are further told that he ate a doughnut that had 320 calories, and a latte had 820 calories. The total calories will be:

= 320 + 820

= 1140 calories

The number of hours needed to burn the calories will be the total calories divided by the amount of calories burnt in an hour. This will be:

= 1140/326

= 3.5 hours

E is the midpoint of AB. If
AE = 4x +6 and EB = 10x - 12.
what is AB?

Answers

Answer:

AB = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Since E is the midpoint of AB, then

AE = EB , substitute values

4x + 6 = 10x - 12 ( subtract 10x from both sides )

- 6x + 6 = - 12 ( subtract 6 from both sides )

- 6x = - 18 ( divide both sides by - 6 )

x = 3

Thus

AB = AE + EB = 4x + 6 + 10x - 12 = 14x - 6 = 14(3) - 6 = 42 - 6 = 36

Henry wraps a gift box in the shape of a square pyramid. The figure below shows a net for the gift box.

Answers

The amount of wrapping paper needed for the square pyramid gift box is: 96.72 in.².

What is the Surface Area of a Square Pyramid?

Surface area of a square pyramid = area of the square base + area of the 4 triangular faces = s² + 4(1/2bh).

We are asked to find the amount of wrapping paper that would be needed to wrap the gift box, which is the surface area of the gift box that has a square pyramid shape.

Given the following dimensions of the gift box:

s = 5.2 in.

b = 5.2 in.

h = 6.7 in.

Plug in the values into s² + 4(1/2bh):

Surface area of a square pyramid = 5.2² + 4(1/2 × 5.2 × 6.7).

Surface area of a square pyramid = 96.72 in.²

Therefore, the amount of wrapping paper needed for the square pyramid gift box is: 96.72 in.².
