Area = perimeter + 132.
Let each side of the city be x miles long, then:-
x^2 = 4x + 132
x^2 - 4x - 132 = 0
x = [-(-4) +/- sqrt((-4)^2 - 4 * 1 *-132)] / 2
x = 13.66, -9.66 We ignore the negative
So the city has dimension of 13.66 * 13.66
13.7 * 13.7 to nearest 10th
Answer:
5 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula to relate speed, distance and time is:
D = V * t
Where D is the distance, V is the speed and t is the time.
As they are in opposite directions, we need to sum the speed.
So the total speed is:
V = 63 + 59 = 122 mph
So using this value and V and using D = 610, we have:
610 = 122 * t
t = 610 / 122 = 5 hours
So they will be 610 miles apart after 5 hours.
Answer:
He burnt 1000 calories per hour when playing basketball.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let B be calories burned playing basketball, and C calories burned canoing.
1800 = B + 2C
3200 = 2B + 3C
From 1st equatipn, we get that B = 1800 - 2C
Replacing into the 2nd equation, we have:
3200 = 2(1800-2C) + 3C
3200 = 3600 - 4C + 3C
3200 = 3600 - 1C
C = 3600 - 3200
C = 400
Knowing C, we find B.
B = 1800 - 2C = 1800 - 2*400 = 1800 - 800 = 1000 calories.
