The length of a rectangular garden is 8 feet longer than its width. The garden's perimeter is 188 feet. Find the width of the garden.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

44 Feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Trust me

Answer 2

Answer:

Width = 43 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 188-feet perimeter of a rectangular garden, for which its length is 8 feet longer than its width:

We can express the length of the rectangular garden as: 8 + W.

Hence, in order to solve for the length and the width of the rectangular garden, use the following formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:

Perimeter (P) = 2(L + W) or 2L + 2W = 188 feet

Length (L) = 8 + W

Width (W) = W

Substitute these values into the perimeter formula to solve for the value of the rectangular garden's dimensions:

P = 2L + 2W

188 feet = 2(8 + W) + 2W

Distribute 2 into the parenthesis, (8 + W):

188 = 16 + 2W + 2W

Combine like terms:

188 = 16 + 4W

Subtract 16 from both sides:

188 - 16 = 16 - 16 + 4W

172 = 4W

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for W:

[tex]\LARGE\mathsf{\frac{172}{4}\:=\:\frac{4W}{4}}[/tex]

W = 43

Therefore, the width of a rectangular garden is 43 feet.  

Since we determined that the length is 8 + W, then it means that the length of the rectangular garden is 51 feet.

Verify the dimensions:

Double-check whether we have the correct dimensions for the rectangular garden by substituting the length (L) = 51 feet, and the width (W) = 43 feet, into the perimeter formula:

P = 2L + 2W

188 feet = 2(51) + 2(43)

188 feet = 102 + 86

188 feet = 188 feet  (True statement). This means that we have the correct dimensions for the rectangular garden.

Answers:

Therefore, the width of a rectangular garden is 43 feet.

hen Max was a puppy, he weighed 512 pounds. At his 1-year check-up with the vet, Max weighed 15.8 pounds.

How much weight did Max gain between the time he was a puppy and his 1-year check-up?

Enter your answer as a decimal or simplified mixed number in the box.

Answers

Answer:

10.3lbs or 10 3/10 as a mixed number

Step-by-step explanation:

i have the same question on my test so i know this is right but here's an explanation: so 5 1/2 pounds is the same as 5.5 pounds, and if you add 10 pounds to 5.5 pounds, you get 15.5 pounds, which is 3 ounces away from 15.8 pounds. so adding 3 ounces to the 10 pounds, then adding that to the 5.5 pounds, you would get 15.8. therefore, your answer is 10.3lbs.

The puppy gained 10.3 pounds of weight in 1 year.

What is subtraction?

Subtraction is one of the arithmetical operations, to subtract means to take away from a group or a number of things.

Given that, Max was a puppy, he weighed [tex]5\frac{1}{2}[/tex] pounds. At his 1-year check-up with the vet, Max weighed 15.8 pounds.

[tex]5\frac{1}{2}[/tex] pounds = 5.5 pounds

Weight before 1 year = 5.5 pounds

Weight after 1 year = 15.8 pounds

Weight gained by the puppy in 1 year = 15.8-5.5 = 10.3 pounds

Hence, the puppy gained 10.3 pounds.

[tex]f(x) = -6x^2 + 7x + 4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

For x = 1

[tex]a(1)^2 + b(1) + c = 5 \Rightarrow a + b + c = 5[/tex] (1)

For x = -3,

[tex]a(-3)^2 + b(-3) + c = -71[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 9a - 3b + c = -71[/tex] (2)

For x = 3,

[tex]a(3)^2 + b(3) + c = -29[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow 9a + 3b + c = -29[/tex] (3)

Let's add Eqn(2) and Eqn(3) together to eliminate b:

[tex]\Rightarrow 18a + 2c = -100[/tex] (4)

Next, multiply Eqn(1) by 3 and then add to Eqn(2) to get

[tex]\Rightarrow 12a + 4c = -56[/tex] (5)

Then we want to eliminate c by multiplying Eqn(4) by -2 and then adding to Eqn(5) and we will get

[tex]-24a = 144 \Rightarrow a = -6[/tex]

Now that we have the value for a, we can use either Eqn(4) or Eqn(5) to solve for c and we will get

[tex]12(-6) + 4c = -56 \Rightarrow c = 4[/tex]

Using the values of a and c on Eqn(1), we find that [tex]b = 7[/tex] so therefore, our function f(x) has a form

Let q represent the quantity of 25% solution in the mix. Then 180-q is the quantity of 10% solution. The quantity of acid in the mix is ...

  0.10(180 -q) +0.25(q) = 0.20(180)

  18 +0.15q = 36 . . . . simplify

  0.15q = 18 . . . . . . . . subtract 18

  q = 18/0.15 = 120 . . . . divide by the coefficient of q

  180-q = 60

The scientist should mix 120 mL of 25% solution with 60 mL of 10% solution.

5) How does the differing interest rates in each option play into your recommendation?

I would appreciate full feedback! Thank you :)

Answers

Return on investment increases as the interest rate applied, the duration of investment, and the principal invested increases.

The responses are as follows;

1) Total contribution = Single contribution Value × Number of contributions2) Option 23) $-4,0004) Option 35) The higher interest rate increases the return on investment

Reasons:

Option 1: Investment

The present value = 0

The contributions made = $50 monthly

APR of investment = 3.5%

Number of years of investment = 35 years

The contribution = $50 × 12 × 35 = $21,000

Future value (final balance) = $41,230.22

Interest Earned = $41,230.22 - $21,000 = $20,230.22

Option 2: Investment

The present value = 0

The contributions made = $150 per quarter

APR on investment = 4.15%

Number of years of investment = 35 years

The contribution = $150 × 4 × 35 = $21,000

Future value = $47,503.88

Interest Earned = $47,503.88 - $21,100

Option 3: Investment

Present value = $4,000

APR on investment = 5.5%

Number of years of investment = 35 years

The contribution = $4,000

Future value = $27,300.26

Interest Earned = $27,300.26 - $4,000 = $23,300.26

[tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|}Option \ number&Contributions&Total \ Interest \ Earned&Final \ Balance\\1&\$50&\$20,230.22&\$41,230.22\\2&\$150&\$26,403.88&\$47,503.88\\3& \$4,000 &\$23,300.26 &\$27,300.26 \end{array}\right][/tex]

1) The total contribution is given by the product of the monthly contribution and the number of timer units.

2) The option that yielded the highest amount at the end of 35 years is the option 2.

The basis of the plan is quarterly investment of $150 and an annual interest rate of 4.15% compounded monthly.

3) The principal with the highest final balance is the principal for Option 2. which is 0

The principal that has the lowest final balance is the principal for option 3 which is $4,000

The difference in the principal for the highest and lowest final balances is  

$0 - $4,000  = $-4,000

4) The plan recommended for the largest return on investment is option 2, in which the amount invested increased by more than 600%

5) The higher the interest rate, the higher the return on the amount invested.

Up arrow, right arrow, down arrow, left arrow, up arrow, right arrow, down arrow, left arrow. What's the conjecture

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is;

If one reflects a figure across the y-axis, the points of the image can be found using the pattern (x, y) Right-arrow (x, -y).

If one reflects a figure across the y-axis, the points of the image can be found using the pattern (x, y) Right-Arrow (-x, y).

Taking the result from the first reflection (x, -y) and applying the second mapping rule will result in (-x, -y), not (y, x), which reflection across the line y = x should give

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that for reflection across the x-axis, (x, y) → (x, -y)

For reflection across the y-axis, (x, y) → (-x, y)

Therefore, given that the pre-image before the reflection across the y-axis is (x, -y), we have;

For reflection across the y-axis, (x, -y) → (-x, -y)

For reflection across the line, y = x, gives (x, y) → (y, x) which is not the same as (-x, -y)
