The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land whose length is (2x+5) and width is (x-10) is 80cm. Find the
i)value of x
ii) area
iii)cost of weeding the plot at GHc 0.24 per m²​

Answers

Answer:

P.=2(2x+5)+2(x-10)=80cm

6x-10=80

x=90/6=15cm

Area= L*W= 35*5=175 squared cm= 0.0175 squared m

Cost= 0.24 * 0.0175 = GHc 0.0042

A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle.  The cost of weeding the rectangular plot is 0.0042 GHc.

What is a rectangle?

That parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. A rectangle is always a parallelogram and a quadrilateral but the reverse statement may or may not be true.

A.) The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land whose length is (2x+5) and width is (x-10) is 80cm. Therefore, we can write,

Perimeter of the rectangel = 2(L+W)

80 = 2[(2x+5)+(x-10)]

80/2 = 2x+5+x-10

40 = 3x -5

40+5 = 3x

x = 15

Hence, the value of x is 15.

B.) The length of the rectangle = (2x+5) = 2(15)+5 = 35 cm = 0.35 m

The width of the rectangle = (x-10) = 15-10 = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Now, the area of the rectangle = L×B = 0.35m × 0.05m  = 0.0175m²

C.) Given the cost of weeding 1m² is 0.24, therefore, the cost of weeding the rectangular plot is

Cost = 0.0175 × 0.24 = 0.0042 GHc

Hence, the cost of weeding the rectangular plot is 0.0042 GHc.

Answers

The transformation of a function may involve any change. The function, g(x) that represents function f(x) moved 4 units downwards is g(x)=7x-1.

How does the transformation of a function happen?

The transformation of a function may involve any change.

Usually, these can be shifted horizontally (by transforming inputs) or vertically (by transforming output), stretched (multiplying outputs or inputs) etc.

If the original function is y = f(x), assuming horizontal axis is input axis and vertical is for outputs, then:

Horizontal shift (also called phase shift):

Left shift by c units: y=f(x+c) (same output, but c units earlier)Right shift by c units: y=f(x-c)(same output, but c units late)

Vertical shift:

Up by d units: y = f(x) + d Down by d units: y = f(x) - d

Stretching:

Vertical stretch by a factor k: y = k × f(x)Horizontal stretch by a factor k: y = f(x/k)

Given the function f(x)=7x+3, now, if the function is moved down by d units, then the function can be transformed down wards by 4 units as shown below.

g(x) = f(x) moved down by 4 units

g(x) = f(x) - 4

g(x) = 7x + 3 - 4

g(x) = 7x - 1

Hence, the function, g(x) that represents function f(x) moved 4 units downwards is g(x)=7x-1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is: A = 2πrh + 2πr²

From here we can plug in what we know (r = 4, h = 16):

A = 2π(4)(16) + 2π(4²)

A = 128π + 32π

A = 160π in²

The surface area of a cylinder is 160π in².

What is the surface area of a cylinder?

The surface area of a cylinder is also called the total surface area of the cylinder.

Suppose that:

Radius of the considered cylinder = 'r' units

Height of the considered cylinder = 'h' units

The formula for the surface area of a cylinder is:

A = 2πrh + 2πr²

From here we can plug in what we know that,

(r = 4, h = 16):

A = 2π(4)(16) + 2π(4²)

A = 128π + 32π

A = 160π in²

On Monday a post office employee processed a batch of letters, on Tuesday she processed three times as many, and on Wednesday she processed 5,000 cards. In the 3 days she processed 15,000 letters. How many did she process on Tuesday

Answers

Let the number of letters processed on Monday = x

She processed 3 times letters on Tuesday.

Therefore, number of letters processed on Tuesday = 3x

Number of letters processed on Wednesday = 5000

Total number of cards processed in 3 days = 15000

Therefore, equation for the situation will be,

x + 3x + 5000 = 15000

4x = 15000 - 5000

4x = 10000

x = 2500

Since, number of letters processed on Tuesday = 3x

Therefore, number of letters processed on Tuesday = 3(2500)

                                                                                             = 7500

Lusine saw birds and mice eating seeds on the ground. She calculated 12 heads and 39 legs in total. How many birds and mice are on the ground?

Answers

Answer:

4.5 birds, 7.5 mice

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that birds have 2 legs and mice have 4. Furthermore, birds have 1 head as well as mice.

If b represents the amount of birds and m represents the amount of mice, because there are only birds and mice here, the total amount of birds and mice (b + m) must equal 12.

b + m = 12

Next, to find the total amount of bird legs, we must add 2 legs for each bird. Another way of putting this is to multiply 2 by the amount of birds, or b * 2. Similarly, the amount of mice legs is equal to m * 4. The total amount of legs is equal to 39, so

2b + 4m = 39

Our two equations are thus

b + m = 12

2b + 4m = 39

One way to solve this is to solve for m in the first equation and plug that into the second. We have

b + m = 12

subtract b from both sides

m = 12-b

substitute that into the second equation

2b + 4(12-b) = 39

2b + 48 - 4b = 39

-2b + 48 = 39

subtract 48 from both sides to isolate the b and its coefficient

-2b = -9

divide both sides by -2 to isolate b

b = 4.5

Therefore, there are 4.5 birds on the ground (there is somehow a half of a bird!)

Plugging that into m = 12-b, we have m = 12-4.5 = 7.5

At 11:00 a.m., John started driving along a highway at constant speed of 50 miles per hour. A quarter of an hour later, Jimmy started driving along the same highway in the same direction as John at the constant speed of 65 miles per hour. At what time will Jimmy catch up with John?

Answers

Answer:

12:05 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let z be the number of hours, from 11:00 am, when Jimmy would catch up with John. The time that Jimmy will have to drive to catch up with John is z - 1/4 as he started a quarter of an hour late. When Jimmy would catch up with John, they would have traveled the same distance. Hence

50 z = 65 (z - 1/4)

Solve for t

50z = 65z - 65/4

z = 65/60 = 1.083 hours = 1 hour and 5 minutes

Which equation is equivalent to -2(2 − 2x) = 4 − 8(1 − x)?

Answers

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(2 − 2x) = 4 − 8(1 − x)

Apply the distributive property:

−2(2 − 2x) = 4 − 8(1 − x)

(−2)(2) + (−2)(−2x) = 4 + (−8)(1) + (−8)(−x)

−4 + 4x = 4 + (−8) + 8x

Combine like terms:

4x − 4 = (8x) + (4+−8)

4x − 4 = 8x + (−4)

4x − 4 = 8x − 4

Subtract 8x from both sides:

4x − 4 − 8x = 8x − 4 − 8x

−4x − 4 = −4

Add 4 to both sides:

−4x − 4 + 4= −4 + 4

−4x = 0

Divide both sides by -4:

-4x/-4 = 0/-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The profit function is,

⇒ p(g) = g - 50

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

Betty sets up a lemonade stand and charges $1 per glass.

It cost her $50 to set up the stand.

And, We have to find the function gives the profit, p, she makes by selling g glasses of lemonade.

Now, The number of glasses of lemonade sold = g,  

And, A profit, p by function p(g)

Setup cost = $50

Since, Charges for 1 glass  = 1 $

Hence, Charges for g glasses = 1.g  = $g

Here, The cost = $50  

Hence, Profit  = $g - 50

⇒ p(g)  =  g - 50  

Therefore, The profit function is,

⇒ p(g) = g - 50
