The area of a rectangular field is 2275 m2. The field is enclosed by 200 m of fence. What are the dimensions of the field?

1 answer:

4 0

So it is enclosed by 200 m of fence
perimiter=200 m
it is a rectangle to
p=legnth+legnth+width+width or
p=l+l+w+w or
p=2l+2w or
p=2(l+w)
so
p=200
200=2(l+w)
divide both sides by 2
100=l+w
area=l times w
area=2275
lw=2275
l+w=100
combine and solve
l+w=100
subtract w
l=100-w
subisutute 100-w for l in other eqution
(100-w)(w)=2275
distribute
-w^2+100w=2275
add (w^2-100w) to both sides
0=w^2-100w+2275
factor
find what 2 numbers add up to -100 and multiply to get 2275
guess (or factor 2275 and find factors that add up to -100)
figure out that they are -65 and -35
0=(w-65)(w-35)
set each to zero
0=w-65
0=w-35

solve for w
w=65 or 35
65>35 so
65 m=legnth
35 m=width

Giuliana has 22 quarters and dollar coins worth a total of $10.75. Which equation can be used to find d, the number of dollar co

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Option (3). 0.25(22 - d) + d = 10.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of coins Giuliana has = 22

Let the number dollar coins Giuliana has = d

Number of quarters with Giuliana = (22 - d)

Value of dollar coins and quarters = $10.75

So the equation will be,

Number of dollars coins × $1 + Number of quarters × $0.25 = $10.75

d + 0.25 × (22 - d) = 10.75

Therefore, to determine the number of dollars with Giuliana equation will be used,

d + 0.25(22 - d) = 10.75

Option (3) will be the answer.

svp [43]

Answer:

a) 1+2+3+4+...+396+397+398+399=79800

b) 1+2+3+4+...+546+547+548+549=150975

c) 2+4+6+8+...+72+74+76+78=1560

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a summation formula for the first n natural numbers:

1+2+3+...+(n-2)+(n-1)+n=\frac{n(n+1)}{2}

We use the formula, we get

a) 1+2+3+4+...+396+397+398+399=\frac{399·(399+1)}{2}=\frac{399· 400}{2}=399· 200=79800

b) 1+2+3+4+...+546+547+548+549=\frac{549·(549+1)}{2}=\frac{549· 550}{2}=549· 275=150975

c)2+4+6+8+...+72+74+76+78=S / ( :2)

1+2+3+4+...+36+37+38+39=S/2

\frac{39·(39+1)}{2}=S/2

\frac{39·40}{2}=S/2

39·40=S

1560=S

Therefore, we get

2+4+6+8+...+72+74+76+78=1560

Isabella Is building a tree fort .The base of the fort is 78 inches wide by 92 inches long. What is the area of the base in squa

Maslowich

Answer:

Part a) The area of the base is $7,176\ in^{2}$

Part b) The area of the base is $49\frac{5}{6}\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a rectangle is equal to

$A=LW$

Part a)

we have

$L=92\ in$

$W=78\ in$

substitute

$A=92*78=7,176\ in^{2}$

Part b)

we know that

$1\ ft=12\ in$

Convert inches to feet

$92\ in=92/12\ ft$

$78\ in=78/12=6.5\ ft$

substitute in the formula

$A=(92/12)*6.5=(598/12)\ ft^{2}$

Convert to mixed number

$(598/12)\ ft^{2}=(588/12)+(10/12)=49+(5/6)=49\frac{5}{6}\ ft^{2}$
