The area of a rectangle is 65 square inches.
The length is x + 5, and the width is x – 3.
Find the value of x, and the dimensions of the rectangle.
A = lw

x=
length =
width=

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x=-10,8

length=13

width=5

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+5)(x-3)=65

x^2+2x-15-65=0

x^2+2x-80=0

(x+10)(x-8)=0

x=-10,8

x+5

(-10)+5=-5, negative length does not make sense

x+5

8+5=13

x-3

(-10)-3=-13, negative width does not make sense

x-3

(8)-3=5

Answer 2

Answer:

x=8

length= 13inches

width=5inches

Step by step explanation:

A=lw

65= (x+5)(x-3)

65= x²-3x+5x-15

x²+2x-80=0

x²+ 10x - 8x - 80 = 0

x(x+10) -8(x+10) = 0

(x-8)(x+10)=0

x= 8 or -10

x cannot be negative

hence x= 8

length= x+5

=8+5

=13inches

width= x-3

=8-3

=5inches

I don’t understand this. Can I plz get some help

There are 3 right triangles in this picture, and they are all mutually similar.

• the smallest triangle has legs 4 and y, and hypotenuse z

• the middle one has legs y and 16, and hypotenuse x

• the largest one has legs z and x, and hypotenuse 16 + 4 = 20

Note the order in which I've listed the sides (shortest to longest). Because these triangles are similar, the corresponding sides occur in a fixed ratio. In particular, we have

4/y = y/16 = z/x … (ratios of each side of the smallest and middle triangles)

4/z = y/x = z/20 … (ratios of the sides of the smallest and largest triangles)

y/z = 16/x = x/20 … (ratios of the sides of the middle and largest triangles)

We just want to find x, which we can do easily with the last equality,

16/x = x/20

Solve for x :

20 • 16/x = 20 • x/20

320/x = x

x • 320/x = x • x

320 = x²

⇒   x = √320 = √(64 • 5) = 8√5

plz its urgent

Answers

Answer:

The ratio of their radius is [tex]2:3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cylinder is [tex]\pi r^2h[/tex], where r is radius and h is height

We have

The heights of two cylinders are in the ratio of [tex]5:3[/tex]

[tex]\frac{h_1}{h_2} =\frac{5}{3}[/tex]

The volume are in the ratio [tex]20:27[/tex]

[tex]\frac{V_1}{V_2} =\frac{20}{27}\\\\\frac{\pi r_1^2h_1}{\pi r_2^2h_2} =\frac{20}{27}\\\\\frac{ r_1^2}{ r_2^2}\times \frac{3}{5} =\frac{20}{27}\\\\\frac{ r_1^2}{ r_2^2} =\frac{4}{9}\\\\\frac{ r_1}{ r_2} =\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The ratio of their radius is [tex]2:3[/tex]

Answer:

2 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Radius of cylinder 1 = R

Radius of cylinder 2 = r

Now,

We know that

Volume of cylinder = πr²h

=> πR²h/πr²h' = 20/27

=> R² × 5/r² × 3 = 20/27

=> R²/r² = 20/27 × 3/5

=> R²/r² = 4/9

=> R/r = √(4/9)

=> R/r = 2/3

=> R : r = 2 : 3

The solution to this system of linear equations is (3, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have two equations for x.  We can eliminate x by setting these two equations equal to one another, obtaining 4 - y = y + 2, or 2 = 2y

Then y must be 1.  Substituting this into the first equation, we get x = 4 - 1 = 3.

HELP!! joels apartment building is 42 ft tall and casts a shadow of 20ft. If Joel is 6 ft tall, how long is his shadow

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

an object and its shadow create a right-angled triangle.

2 objects and their shadows create 2 similar right-angled triangles.

that means the angles are the same, and the side lengths of one triangle all correlate with the corresponding side lengths of the other triangle via the same factor.

so,

42 × f = 6

f = 6/42 = 1/7

the length of Joel's shadow is then

20 × f = 20 × 1/7 = 2.857142857... ft

Equation of the line that passes through (-6,-5) and (-3,0)

Answers

Answer:

y=(5/3)x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Every line is in the form: y = ax+b. If some points are on this line, they satisfy this equation. So we can write:

-5 = a(-6) + b

0 = a(-3) + b

It's a system of equations. We can solve them by subtracting the second equation from the first:

-5-0 = -6a - (-3a) + b - b

That becomes:

-5 = -3a

Therefore:

a = 5/3

Now we plug this value in the second equation of the system, and find the value of b:

0 = 5/3*(-3) +b

b=5

The final line equation will be: y=(5/3)x + 5

Answer:

y = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]x + 5

Explanation:

First, find the slope. The formula to find slope can be defined as [tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex].

Given points (-6, -5) and (-3, 0), we can substitute those values in and find that the slope for this line will be [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex].

Using slope-intercept form, our equation so far is y = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]x + b. To find b, we substitute the coordinates of any point and solve. Doing so gets us a value of 5 for b.

Therefore, our final answer is y = [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]x + 5.

45 + 30 = 100 - w


Answer:



Explanation:

Answers

Answer:

w = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

45+30 = 100 - w75 = 100 - ww = 100 - 75w = 25
In order to work out “w”, you could begin by working backwards, starting with 100, then doing the inverse operation (subtracting 30 then subtracting 45).

100 - 30 = 70 - 45 = 25.

100 - 25 = 45 + 30

w = 25

Hed been running for so long that he had pains in his side and his legs were beginning to hurt. He hunched over and tried to expand his lungs, but it was like trying to suck air out of a bicycle tire. His body was too exhausted to even allow him to take a deep breath, and he started to wheeze again.Great, he thought, let me just add asthma to my expanding list of ailments. I cant believe that I cant even jog two miles without completely collapsing! He finally gave in to his aching body and laid down on the grass to recuperate. He closed his eyes and tried to imagine himself running on the school track in the 1,600-meter race. He pictured himself running steadily toward the finish line, running effortlessly like a cheetah in the jungle. He was so lost in thought that he didnt even hear Meiya approach.Hey sleepyhead, what are you doing napping on Seans lawn in the middle of the day? Meiya asked playfully.Carlo quickly sat up, breathing normally now and feeling a little embarrassed. I am trying to get in shape to try out for track, but I cant even run two miles, he said dejectedly.Wait, how many months are you out of surgery? Didnt you just finish rehab last week? Meiya asked. You cant expect to run two miles the first day.It had been six months since Carlos surgery and he specifically remembered the doctor telling him he could start running after six months. But he thought about what Meiya had said and realized she had a good point. After his surgery, the doctor did say rehab would be crucial to his recovery but that it would take time for him to gain back full use of his leg. He thought about how a baby had to learn to walk before it could run. He remembered when his nephew was learning to crawl; within days it seemed like he was walking. Running didnt come right away, Carlo remembered. He realized it was the same with his therapy. The maximum he had run in the past month was one mile on the treadmill, so he realized that Meiya was probably right. He would have to work at building up his endurance and set more realistic goals for himself. As he thought about what he had already accomplished, he started to smile and felt like a weight was being lifted off his shoulders. He realized that he had run almost a mile and a half before his body started to protest and if he kept working hard, he could get back to where he was before his accident.Since when did you get so smart, Dr. Meiya? he teased.
