A RECTANGLE HAS SIDES OF "20 - x" AND "x - 5", IF THE RECTANGLES AREA IS 36 SQ. INCHES. FIND THE LARGEST SIDE.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

12 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. area can be calculated as A=s1*s2, where s1 and s2 are the largest and shortest sides.

2. according to the formula before A=(20-x)(x-5). But according to the condition A=36, then (20-x)(x-5)=36;

3. if to solve this quadratic equation, then

-x²+25x-136=0;

[tex]\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x=17\\x=8\end{array}[/tex]

4. if x=3;12, then the sides are 12 and 3 and

5. finally, the largest side s1=12 inches.

In how many years will Rs 1200 at the rate of 15% interest amount to Rs 1740?​

Answers

Answer:

3 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer

3 years

Step by step explanation

Interest = 1740 - 1200

= 540

SI = prt/100

540 = 1200*15*t/100

540 = 12*15*t

540 = 180*t

t = 540/180

x/8 + 9 =5

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient is division and I decided to use x as my number so the first part is x/8. Then you do the nine more because more is addition to whatever is after it in our case it is x/8 so now you have x/8 + 9. Then it says equals 5 so the equation is x/8 + 9 = 5

if 3x+4y=11 and xy=2 solve simultaneously​

Answers

Answer:

(1, 2 ) and ([tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex], [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] )

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4y = 11 → (1)

xy = 2 ( divide both sides by y , y ≠ 0 )

x = [tex]\frac{2}{y}[/tex] → (2)

Substitute x = [tex]\frac{2}{y}[/tex] into (1)

3([tex]\frac{2}{y}[/tex] ) + 4y = 11

[tex]\frac{6}{y}[/tex] + 4y = 11 ( multiply through by y )

6 + 4y² = 11y ( subtract 11y from both sides )

4y² - 11y + 6 = 0

Consider the factors of the product of the y² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the y- term

product = 4 × 6 = 24 and sum = - 11

The factors are - 8 and - 3

Use these factors to split the y- term

4y² - 8y - 3y + 6 = 0 ( factor first/second and third/fourth terms )

4y(y - 2) - 3(y - 2) = 0 ← factor out (y - 2) from each term

(y - 2)(4y - 3) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for y

4y - 3 = 0 ⇒ 4y = 3 ⇒ y = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]

y - 2 = 0 ⇒ y = 2

Substitute these values into (2)

y = 2 : x = [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex] = 1 ⇒ (1, 2 )

y = [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] : x = [tex]\frac{2}{\frac{3}{4} }[/tex] = 2 × [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex] ⇒ ( [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex], [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] )

Answers

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a triangle = the sum of the three sides.    

In an isosceles the legs are equal (2x - 6) and the base is x

Perimeter = (x) + (2x - 6) + (2x - 6)

          38  = 5x - 12

Answer ALL the question. Thank you


1) A toad jumps 8 times. Every time he jumps, he covers the same distance. After 8 jumps, he had traveled 96 steps. How long are his jumps?


2) Roger covers 52 steps in 1 jump and 7 steps. How many steps are equal to on of Roger's jumps?


3)Wartortle takes the same amount of time to get to 96, but he does it differently. Each of his jumps is equal to 8 of the toad's steps. How many jumps does Wartorle make?


4) Ribbbie jumped just as far as MT, 52 steps, but Rabbie did it in 3 jumps and 10 steps. How many steps are equal to one of Ribbie's jumps?

Answers

1) The toad's jumps are 12 steps long.

2) One of Roger's jumps equals 45 steps.

3) Wartortle makes 1 jump to cover 96 steps.

4) One of Ribbie's jumps is equal to 14 steps.

1) Given that a toad jumps 8 times, and every time he jumps, he covers the same distance, and after 8 jumps, he had traveled 96 steps, to determine how long are his jumps the following calculation must be performed:

96/8 = X 12 = X So, his jumps are 12 steps long.

2) Given that Roger covers 52 steps in 1 jump and 7 steps, to determine how many steps are equal to one of Roger's jumps, the following calculation must be performed:

52 - 7 = X 45 = X Thus, one of Roger's jumps equals 45 steps.

3) Since Wartortle takes the same amount of time to get to 96, but he does it differently, as each of his jumps is equal to 8 of the toad's steps, to determine how many jumps does Wartorle make the following calculation must be performed :

8 x 12 = X 96 = X 96/96 = 1 Therefore, Wartortle makes 1 jump to cover 96 steps.

4) Given that Ribbie jumped just as far as MT, 52 steps, but Ribbie did it in 3 jumps and 10 steps, to determine how many steps are equal to one of Ribbie's jumps, the following calculation must be performed:

(52 - 10) / 3 = X 42/3 = X 14 = X Therefore, one of Ribbie's jumps is equal to 14 steps.
