Find the length of the shortest side if the area of the rectangle is 144m2
х
x + 10

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Given,

Length and breadth of the rectangle are (x) and (x+10)

Area of the rectangle ( A ) = 144[tex]m^{2}[/tex]

We know ,

Area of rectangle ( A ) = L*B

                        or , 144 = x ( x+10 )

                        or , 144 = [tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 10x

                        or , [tex]x^{2}[/tex] + 10x - 144 = 0

Solving the equation , we get ,

x = 8 and -18

The side has to be positive so ,

x = 8 m , which is the shortest side !

Step-by-step explanation: We were given the area of the rectangle and length & breadth in expression . By using the formula of area of rectangle , we got the equation which then gave 8 and -18 as answers when solved and since the rectangle had positive sides 8 m was the correct value . Also its the shortest side and the other side is simply ( 8 + 10 ) which is 18 m but the question has only asked for the shortest side !

What is the measure of an exterior angle of a regular 13-gon?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Size of Exterior angle = 360°/n, where n is the number of sides of the regular polygon.

Hence we have 360°/13 = 27.7° (1d.p.)

The measure of an exterior angle of a regular 13-gon is 27.69°.

What is a regular 13-gon?

A regular 13-gon is a polygon that has 13 equal sides, 13 equal interior angles, and 13 vertices.

The given polygon is a regular 13-gon.

Therefore, all the exterior angles of this polygon are equal.

We know, each exterior angle of a regular polygon with 'n' sides is

= (360 / n)°

Here, n = 13.

Therefore, the value of each exterior angle

= (360 / 13)°

= 27.69°

You need to exchange some of your U.S. Dollars for Australian dollars. For every U.S. Dollar, suppose you get $1.468 in Australian dollarys. If you already have $32.45 in Australian dollars, how much in U.S. Dollars do you need to exchange to have $766.45 in Australian dollars?

Answers

Answer: $500

Step-by-step explanation:

You already have $32.45 in Australian dollars. You however want to have a total of $766.45. You therefore need an extra:

= 766.45 - 32.45

= A$734

1 USD gives A$1.468

The USD you will need is:

= 734/1.468

= $500

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 4y = -4 ------------------------(1)

3x + 5y = -3 ------------------------(2)

Multiply Eq. (1) by 3

3(2x + 4y) = -4 * 3

6x + 12y = -12 ---------------------(3)

Multiply Eq. (2) by 2

2(3x + 5y) = -3 * 2

6x + 10y = -6 ---------------------(4)

Subtract Eq. (4) from (3)

6x + 12y - ( 6x + 10y ) = -12 - (-6)

6x + 12y - 6x - 10y = -12 + 6

12y - 10y = -6

2y = -6

Divide 2 to both sides

y = -6 / 2

y = -3

Put y = -3 in Eq. (1)

2x + 4(-3) = -5

2x - 12 = -5

Add 12 to both sides

2x = -5 + 12

2x = 7

Divide 2 to both sides

x = 7 / 2

So,

x = 7 / 2 , y = -3

What is a Pythagoras theorem?

The Pythagoras theorem states that the sum of two squares equals the squared of the longest side.

The Pythagoras theorem formula is given as

H² = P² + B²

The converse of the Pythagorean theorem using side lengths chosen from 2 cm, 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm.

The side 3 cm, 4 cm, and 5 cm will satisfy the Pythagoras equation.

5² = 4² + 3²

25 = 16 + 9

25 = 25

The side 3 cm and 4 cm is normal to each other.

Then the correct option is C.

Answers

Answer:

1250 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Population density = total population / land area

50 = x / 25

x = total population = 50 x 25 = 1250 people

1. What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis ​

Answers

Answer:

The slope of a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis ​is undefined.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the x-axis is a horizontal line.

We also know a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis ​is basically a vertical line.As the slope of a perpendicular line is undefined because no matter what the value of y is, the x-value remains the same.

Therefore, the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the x-axis ​is undefined.

For example, the slope between (1, 2) and (1, 4) is:

Using the slope formula

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

                 = [4 - 2] / [1 - 1]

                  = 2 / 0

                  = ∞

Abey and Anoki are eating chocolate bars. The bars are the same size. Abey has ! 3 4 ! Left. Anoki has ! 7 8 ! Left. How much chocolate is left altogether?

Answers

Answer:

13/8 of the chocolate will be left altogether.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Abey and Anoki are eating chocolate bars. The bars are the same size.

Abey left 3/4 of chocolate and Anoki left 7/8 of chocolate.

Left amount = Abey left amount + Anoki left amount

[tex]=\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{7}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{3(2)+7(1)}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{6+7}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{13}{8}[/tex]

Hence, 13/8 of the chocolate will be left altogether.
