A yard has a perimeter of 400 feet. If eight times the length of the yard equals seventeen times the​ width, what are its​ dimensions?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Length of the rectangular yard = 136 feet

Width of the rectangular yard = 64 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Width = 17 × width

Length = 8 × length

8l = 17w

l = 17w/8

Perimeter of a rectangular yard = 2(length + width)

400 = 2(17w/8 + w)

400 = 34w/8 + 2w

400 = 17/4w + 2w

400 = 17w+8w/4

400 = 25w/4

Cross product

1600 = 25w

Divide both sides by 25

w = 1600/25

= 64 feet

Recall,

l = 17w/8

= 17*64 / 8

= 1088/8

= 136 feet

Length of the rectangular yard = 136 feet

Width of the rectangular yard = 64 feet

Tom has 40$ to spend. He spend $21.40 on a light saber. He needs to set aside $15 for a toda t-shirt. If skittles cost $0.58 per package, what is the maximum number of skittles packages he can buy? PLEASE HELP

Answers

Tom would have enough money to buy 6 bags

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

40 - 21.40 = 18.6

18.6 - 15, for the amount he sets aside for shirt = 3.6 left to spend

3.6 divided by 0.58 = 6.20

so rounded, the answer should be 6 packages of skittles

The sum of ages of three brothers is 79. If James I’d half as old as Brandon and Marshall is 11 years younger then Brandon how old is the youngest brother?

Answers

Answer:

The youngest brother is James and his age is 18 Years.

Step wise explaination:

Lets suppose,

age of James = x

age of Brandon = 2x

age of Marshall = 2x - 11

The sum of ages of three brothers = 79

now,

finding the value of x,

x + 2x + 2x - 11 = 79

or, 5x - 11 = 79

or, 5x = 79 + 11

or, 5x = 90

or, x = 90

5

so, x = 18.

Then,

age of James = 18.

age of Brandon = 18 = 36.

age of Marshall = (2×18) - 11 = 25.

Therefore,

The youngest brother is James and his age is 18 Years.

Find the coordinates of the midpoint of TU for T(3,1) and U(5,3)

Answers

Answer:  (4,2)

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

The given points are T(3,1) and U(5,3)

The x coordinates of these given points are 3 and 5. Add them up to get 3+5 = 8. Then cut this in half getting 8/2 = 4. This is the x coordinate of the midpoint.

The y coordinates are 1 and 3. They add to 1+3 = 4. Then that cuts in half to get 4/2 = 2. This is the y coordinate of the midpoint.

The midpoint is (4,2)

Effectively, we just used the midpoint formula

[tex](x_m, y_m) = \left( \frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2} \right)[/tex]

In short: add the corresponding coordinates, then divide by 2.

Adam wraps the top edge of the gift box shown with gold ribbon. The top and bottom edges of the box are square. If Adam has cm of gold​ ribbon, does he have enough to decorate the top of the​ box?

Answers

This question is incomplete and lacks the required diagram

Complete Question

Adam wraps the top edge of the gift box shown with gold ribbon. The top and bottom edges of the box are square. If Adam has 24 1/4 inches of gold​ ribbon, does he have enough to decorate the top of the​ box?

Answer:

Yes, he has enough ribbon to decorate the top of the box.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question, we are told that the volume of the box = 296cm³

Volume of the box = a³

296cm³ = a³

a = √296cm³

a = 6.6644437033cm

The side length of the box = 6.6644437033cm

The length of the ribbon = 24 1/4 inches

= 24.25 inches long.

Converting this to centimeters =

1 inch = 2.54cm

24.25 inches =

24.25 × 2.54 cm

= 61.595cm.

Length of the ribbon = 61.595cm.

Since from the above, we know the edges of the cube = square

Edge length of the box = 6.6644437033cm

The perimeter of a top of the box

= 4a

= 6.6644437033cm × 4

= 26.657774813 cm

Subtracting the perimeter of the top of the box from the length of the ribbon

61.595cm - 26.657774813 cm

= 34.937225187 cm ( ribbon left)

Therefore, he has enough ribbons left

Line segment JK in the coordinate plane has endpoints with coordinates \left(-4,11\right)(−4,11) and \left(8,-1\right)(8,−1).Supposed J, P, and K are collinear on segment JK, and JP:JK=\frac{1}{3}JP:JK=1/3 . What are the coordinates of P?

Answers

Answer:

(-1, 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given P to be the point that divides the coordinates J and K in the ratio 1:3

then the coordinate of point P will be xpressed as;

P(X, Y) = [tex](\frac{bx_1+ax_2}{b+a}, \frac{by_1+ay_2}{b+a})[/tex]

Given J = (-4, 11) and K = (8, -1)

[tex]x_1 = -4, y_1 = 11, x_2 = 8 \ and \ y_2 = -1, a = 1, b = 3[/tex]

substituting the given parameters into the line division formula

[tex]P(X, Y) = (\frac{3(-4)+1(8)}{3+1}, \frac{3(11)+(1)(-1)}{3+1})\\\\P(X, Y) = (\frac{-12+8}{4}, \frac{33-1}{4})\\\\P(X, Y) = (\frac{-4}{4}, \frac{32}{4})\\\\P(X, Y) = (-1, 8)[/tex]

Hence the coordinates of P is (-1, 8)

Which of the following is an equation in the form y = ax2 + bx + c of the parabola shown in the graph? Show your work.

B. y = −5x2 − 20x − 20
C. y = −x2 − 27x − 90
D. y = −5x2 + 20x + 25

Answers

Answer:

Option D. y = – 5x² + 20x + 25

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll begin by obtaining the solutions to the equation from the graph. This can be obtained as follow:

The solutions are simply the values through which the graph cuts the x-axis.

The solutions are x = – 1 and 5.

Next, we shall obtain the equation for the graph as follow:

x = – 1 Or x = 5

x + 1 = 0 or x – 5= 0

(x + 1) (x – 5) = 0

Expand

x(x – 5) + 1(x – 5) = 0

x² – 5x + x – 5 = 0

x² – 4x – 5 = 0

Multiply through by 5

5x² – 20x – 25 = 0

Rearrange

0 = 0 – (5x² – 20x – 25)

= – 5x² + 20x + 25

Thus, the equation is:

y = – 5x² + 20x + 25

B) 40 to Go Plan=0.05x+40

12.

0.15x=0.05x+40

13.

x=400 minutes

14. The solution is the amount of minutes that it takes for both plans to cost the same amount. X has one solution, so it accounts for both equations.

15. EZ Pay Plan

Step-by-step explanation:

For 11, what you need to know is that the slope (coefficient of x) is the price per minute. 0.15 per minute and 0.05 per minute are charged, and therefore are the slope for those equations. The 40 on B is because it is the y intercept. No matter how long you use the object, you will always pay at least 40 dollars.

For 12, you have to find x for the minutes used.

For 13, if you do the process algebraically,

0.15x=0.05x+40  

0.10x=40     (subtracted 0.05x from both sides)

x=400       (divided 0.10x and 40 by 0.10)

For 14, (no explanation)

For 15, if you substitute 200 as x, you would see that the EZ Pay Plan would make you pay 30 dollars while the 40 To Go Plan would make you pay 10+40 dollars, which 30<50.
