A rectangular enclosure at the zoo is 35 feet long by 18 feet wide. The zoo wants to double the area of the enclosure by adding the same distance x to the length and width. Write and solve an equation to find the value of x. What are the dimensions of the enclosure?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the value of x is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The new length is 35+10=45 and the new width is 18+10=28.

What is Area of Rectangle?

Area of rectangle is length times of breadth.

Given that enclosure at the zoo is 35 feet long by 18 feet wide. It means length is 35 feet and width is 18 feet.

Area of Rectangle=Length × Width

=35×18

=630

The zoo wants to double the area of the enclosure by adding the same distance x to the length and width.

(35+x)×(18+x)=1260

630+35x+18x+x2=1260

x2+53x+630-1260=0

x2+53x-630

Now use the quadratic formula we get

x=10.

The new length is 35+10=45

The new width is 18+10=28.

Hence the new length is 35+10=45 and the new width is 18+10=28.

Answer:

After translation:

Translation: (x, y)  →  (x-6, y-8)

W'X'Y'Z' = W'(-10, 0), X'(-10, -8), Y'(-18, -4), Z'(-14, 8)

After dilation:

Dilation: (x, y)  →  (2x, 2y), centered at (0, 0)

W''X''Y''Z'' = W'' (-20, 0), X'' (-8, 0) , Y'' (-24, 8), Z'' (-16, 32)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertices of the Quadrilateral WXYZ

W(-4, 8)X(-4, 0)Y(-12, 4)Z(-8, 16)

As the rule of translation is given by

Translation: (x, y)  →  (x-6, y-8)

So, after the translation the vertices of Quadrilateral WXYZ will be translated as:

W(-4, 8)  →  (x-6, y-8) ⇒ (-4-6, 8-8) = W'(-10, 0)

X(-4, 0)  →  (x-6, y-8) ⇒ (-4-6, 0-8) = X'(-10, -8)

Y(-12, 4)  →  (x-6, y-8) ⇒ (-12-6, 4-8) = Y'(-18, -4)

Z(-8, 16)  →  (x-6, y-8) ⇒ (-8-6, 16-8) = Z'(-14, 8)

Therefore,

W'X'Y'Z' = W'(-10, 0), X'(-10, -8), Y'(-18, -4), Z'(-14, 8)

Next, the rule of dilation is given by

Dilation: (x, y)  →  (2x, 2y), centered at (0, 0)

W'(-10, 0)  →  (2x, 2y) ⇒ (2(-10), 2(0)) = W'' (-20, 0)  

X'(-4, 0)  →  (2x, 2y) ⇒ (2(-4), 2(0)) = X'' (-8, 0)

Y'(-12, 4)  →  (2x, 2y) ⇒ (2(-12), 2(4)) = Y'' (-24, 8)

Z'(-8, 16)  →  (2x, 2y) ⇒ (2(-8), 2(16)) = Z'' (-16, 32)

Therefore,

W''X''Y''Z'' = W'' (-20, 0), X'' (-8, 0) , Y'' (-24, 8), Z'' (-16, 32)

Gerald inherited $35,000 from his uncle. He spends $1400 a month. After how many months
will Gerald have less than $2,000?

Answers

Answer:

18 months

Step-by-step explanation:

35,000÷18=1944

First, we need to figure out the amounts of months that Gerald has total, with all of the money.  So, we divide 35000 by 1400, this leaves us with 25.  So, if he keeps spending 1400 per month, it will last him 25 months, but this is not what the question asks, is it?  In 25 months, his inheritance will be fully depleted, in 24 months he will have spent 33,600 dollars, meaning he will have 1400 dollars left (35000 - (24 * 1400))and in 23 months, he will have spent 32,200 dollars, meaning that he will have 2800 dollars.  

"In 24 months he will have spent 33,600 dollars, meaning he will have 1400 dollars left 35000 - (24 * 1400)"

35000 - (24 * 1400)

The length of each side of an equilateral triangle is increased by 5 inches, so the perimeter is now 60 inches. Write and solve an equation to find the original length of each side of the equilateral triangle.

Answers

Answer:

The original length of each side of the equilateral triangle = x =15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Original length of side of equilateral triangle = x

If it is increased by 5 inches, the length will become = x+5

Since in equilateral triangle all the ides have same length so,

New Length of side 1 = x+5

New of side 2 = x+5

New Length of side 3 = x+5

Perimeter of triangle = 60 inches

We need to find the value of x

The formula used is: [tex]Perimeter=Length \ of \ side \ 1 \ + Length \ of \ side \ 2 \ + Length \ of \ side \ 3[/tex]

Putting values in formula and finding x

[tex]Perimeter=Length \ of \ side \ 1 \ + Length \ of \ side \ 2 \ + Length \ of \ side \ 3\\60=x+5+x+5+x+5\\60=3x+15\\60-15=3x\\45=3x\\x=\frac{45}{3}\\x=15[/tex]

So, the original length of each side of the equilateral triangle = x =15 inches

increased.
Each year the percentage increase in value was the same each time.
The value of the house at the end of 2019 was 55.52% more than he paid for

Calculate the percentage increase in value of the house for each of the three
consecutive years.

Answers

The percentage increase in the value of the house each of the three years is 11.49%.

What is the percentage increase in the value of the house?

The equation that can be used to represent the percentage change in the value of the house is:

(100x - 10%) + 3x% = 55.52%

90% + 3x = 55.52%

90% - 55.52% = 3x

34,48% = 3x

x = 34.48/3

Find the value of x that makes each parallelogram the given type (answer both please)

Answers

Answer:

a. x = 12

b. x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

a. RECTANGLE

ABCD is a rectangle, AC and BD are its diagonals.

Diagonals of a rectangle are congruent.

Therefore,

AC = BD

10x + 8 = 9x + 20

10x - 9x = 20 - 8

x = 12

b. RHOMBUS

Diagonal of a rectangle bisect opposite angles.

Therefore,

(5x + 3)° = (2x + 15)°

5x + 3 = 2x + 15

5x - 2x = 15 - 3

3x = 12

x = 12/3

x = 4

The value of x for a rectangle will be 12.

The value of X for a rhombus is 4.

What is a parallelogram?

A basic quadrilateral containing two sets of side lengths is known as a parallelogram. There are four types of parallelograms each with diffrent kinds of properties.

a. RECTANGLE

ABCD is a rectangle, Therfore the diagonals that are made will also be equal.

AC = BD

[tex]10x +8 = 9x + 20\\10x - 9x = 20 - 8[/tex]

x = 12

b. RHOMBUS

As this is a rhombus that is presented, the angle which is divided with the help of the diagonal will both be equal.

5x + 3 = 2x + 15

5x - 2x = 15 - 3

Simplifying the equation,

3x = 12

x = 12/3

x = 4

2.

Step C)

The mistake is:
