PROBLEM. Riley has a rectangular shaped patio that is 13 feet long by 15 feet wide. He wants to DOUBLE THE AREA of the patio by increasing the length and width by the same amount. 1. Write an EQUATION that represents the total area of Riley's proposed patio. AND 2. To the NEAREST TENTH of a foot, what is the LENGTH and WIDTH of the new patio?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

18.8 ft

20.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Dimension of rectangular patio:

13 feets * 15 feets

To double the area of The patio :

2 * initial. Area

Initial Area = area of rectangle = Length * width

Initial area = 13 * 15 = 195ft²

New area of patio = 2 * 195 ft² = 390 ft²

To obtain the new area, the length and width of patio increased in equal amount:

Let the Increment = x

Hence,

(length + x) * (width + x) = 390

(13 + x) * (15 + x) = 390

195 + 13x + 15x + x² = 390

195 + 13x + 15x + x² - 390 = 0

x² + 28x - 195 = 0

Using the quadratic equation solver to save computation time :

The roots are :

X = - 33.773 or 5.773

Dimension can't be negative, hence,

x = 5.773

New dimension :

(length + x) = 13 + 5.773 = 18.8 ft

(width + x) = 15 + 5.773 = 20.8 ft

Barb is looking at internet service plans. A local company offers a one month service plan for $39.95 for a two month service plan for $68.97 dollars how much would Barb save in 2 months if she only got two month plan instead of two one month plans enter?

Answers

Answer:

Barb would save $10.93 in 2 months if she only got two month plan instead of two one month plans.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to determine the amount that Barb will pay with the one month service plan in 2 months:

$39.95*2= $79.9

Now, you need to calculate the difference between both plans:

$79.9-$68.97=$10.93

According to this, the answer is that Barb would save $10.93 in 2 months if she only got two month plan instead of two one month plans.

Nathan is opening a savings account that has a 10% simple interest rate. He deposits $75 in the account. After 5 years, he will have $112.50 in his account. How many more dollars would Nathan earn after 5 years with a 10% compounded interest rate?

Answers

Answer:

Dollars earned after 5 years = $45.79

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Initial money deposited in account = $75

Time for which the money is deposited = 5 years

Interest rate = 10%

Nature of interest = Simple Interest

Amount after 5 years = $112.50

To find:

Total money earned after 5 years if the interest is compounded ?

Solution:

Formula for amount if the interest is compounded annually:

[tex]A =P(1+\frac{R}{100})^T[/tex]

Where P is the principal amount (initial money)

R is the rate of interest

T is the time

Putting all the values:

[tex]A =75\times (1+\frac{10}{100})^5\\\Rightarrow \bold{A = \$120.79}[/tex]

Total more money earned or the interest after the compounding nature =

[tex]A - P[/tex] = $120.79 - $75 = $45.79

lamont is trying to determine how many $5 and $10 bills he needs to make $300 in total he has 35 bills. If x represents the number of $5 bills he has and y represents the number of $10 bills use the graph below to determine how many of each bill he has

Answers

Answer: 10 $5 bills, and 25 $10 bills.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the variables:

F = number of $5 bills.

T = number of $10 bills.

We know that he wants to make $300 in total, then we have:

F*$5 + T*$10 = $300

And we also know that in total there are 35 bills, then:

F + T  = 35.

So we have the system of equations:

F*$5 + T*$10 = $300

F + T  = 35

To solve this, the first step is isolate one of the variables in one of the equations, i will isolate F in the second equation to get:

F = 35 - T

Now we can replace that in the other equation, and get:

(35 - T)*$5 + T*$10 = $300

Now we can solve this equation for T.

$175 - T*$5 + T*$10 = $300

T*$5 = $300 - $175 = $125

T =  $125/$5 = 25

and:

F = 35 - T = 35 - 25 = 10

Then he has:

10 $5 bills, and 25 $10 bills.

Answer:

20. AB = 42

21. BC = 28

22. AC = 70

23. BC = 20.4

24. FH = 48

25. DE = 10, EF = 10, DF = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

✍️Given:

AB = 2x + 7

BC = 28

AC = 4x,

20. Assuming B is between A and C, thus:

AB + BC = AC (Segment Addition Postulate)

2x + 7 + 28 = 4x (substitution)

Collect like terms

2x + 35 = 4x

35 = 4x - 2x

35 = 2x

Divide both side by 2

17.5 = x

AB = 2x + 7

Plug in the value of x

AB = 2(17.5) + 7 = 42

21. BC = 28 (given)

22. AC = 4x

Plug in the value of x

AC = 4(17.5) = 70

✍️Given:

AC = 35 and AB = 14.6.

Assuming B is between A and C, thus:

23. AB + BC = AC (Segment Addition Postulate)

14.6 + BC = 35 (Substitution)

Subtract 14.6 from each side

BC = 35 - 14.6

BC = 20.4

24. FH = 7x + 6

FG = 4x

GH = 24

FG + GH = FH (Segment Addition Postulate)

[tex] 4x + 24 = 7x + 6 [/tex] (substitution)

Collect like terms

[tex] 4x - 7x = -24 + 6 [/tex]

[tex] -3x = - 18 [/tex]

Divide both sides by -3

[tex] x = 6 [/tex]

FH = 7x + 6

Plug in the value of x

FH = 7(6) + 6 = 48

25. DE = 5x, EF = 3x + 4

Given that E bisects DF, therefore,

DE = EF

5x = 3x + 4 (substitution)

Subtract 3x from each side

5x - 3x = 4

2x = 4

Divide both sides by 2

x = 2

DE = 5x

Plug in the value of x

DE = 5(2) = 10

EF = 3x + 4

Plug in the value of x

EF = 3(2) + 4 = 10

DF = DE + EF

DE = 10 + 10 (substitution)

DE = 20

Answers

Given:

4 is a root of f(x).

To find:

A factor of f(x).

Solution:

We know that, if c is a root of a function f(x), then (x-c) is a factor of f(x).

In the given problem, 4 is a root of f(x).

So, we have c=4.

By using the above property we can say that, (x-4) is a factor of function f(x).

Since, (x-4) is a factor of function f(x), therefore, the correct option is C.
