Don’t know the answer nor the explanation ! Same situation as of yours !
Answer:
175 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of the whole thing is 400 ft. (20 x 20=400)
i got the 20 from the perimeter b/c 20+20+20+20=80
then subtract the area of the pool from 400 to get 175.
Answer:
They will leave at 14:25 (2:25) at the same time
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector of this given line.
to do that, you need the slope of the perpendicular line and one point.
Step 1: find the slope of the given line segment. We have the two end points (10, 15) and (-20, 5), so the slope is m=(15-5)/(10-(-20))=1/3
the slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line, m=-3/1=-3
step 2: find the middle point: x=(-20+10)/2=-5, y=(15+5)/2=10 (-5, 10)
so the equation of the perpendicular line in point-slope form is (y-10)=-3(x+5)
now plug in all the given coordinates to the equation to see which pair fits:
(-8, 19): 19-10=9, -3(-8+5)=9, so yes, (-8, 19) is on the perpendicular line.
try the other pairs, you will find that (1,-8) and (-5, 10) fit the equation too. (-5,10) happens to be the midpoint.
The correct answer of 1/3 is the decimal form of it which is 0.3 repeated (you can put a line on top of the 3). If not just leave it as 1/3 it is simplified as a fraction.
