Now there is a square city of unknown size with a gate at the center of each side. There is a tree 20 b from the north gate. Tha

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The length of each side of the city is 250b

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$a = 20$ --- tree distance from north gate

$b =14$ --- movement from south gate

$c = 1775$ --- movement in west direction from (b)

See attachment for illustration

Required

Find x

To do this, we have:

$\triangle ADE \sim \triangle ACB$ --- similar triangles

So, we have the following equivalent ratios

$AE:DE = AB:CB$

Where:

$AE = 20\\ DE = x/2 \\ AB = 20 + x + 14 \\ CB = 1775$

Substitute these in the above equation

$20:x/2 = 20 + x + 14: 1775$

$20:x/2 = x + 34: 1775$

Express as fraction

$\frac{20}{x/2} = \frac{x + 34}{1775}$

$\frac{40}{x} = \frac{x + 34}{1775}$

Cross multiply

$x *(x + 34) = 1775 * 40$

Open bracket

$x^2 + 34x = 71000$

Rewrite as:

$x^2 + 34x - 71000 = 0$

Expand

$x^2 + 284x -250x - 71000 = 0$

Factorize

$x(x + 284) -250(x + 284)= 0$

Factor out x + 284

$(x - 250)(x + 284)= 0$

Split

$x - 250 = 0 \ or\ x + 284= 0$

Solve for x

$x = 250 \ or\ x =- 284$

x can't be negative;

So:

$x = 250$

Kate wants to spend less than $100 per day to rent a car. A car rents for $45 per day plus $0.25 per mile. Write, solve, and gra

Bezzdna [24]

Money to be spent per day <$100
To rent a car:
Minimum amount per day= $45
Amount per mile= $0.25

Hence amount spent depends on distance travelled.
If distance travelled= x; fee for travel= 0.25x

Hence finally we need the fare to be less than $100
And fare is $45+0.25x

So the final inequality is 0.25x+45<100.

Hope it helps.
