Ionly got one shot so pls , im stupid! answer if you know it. or at least take a ( 2 questions)

1. a rectangular trampoline measures 15 meters by 18 meters. a pad of constant width is placed around the trampoline so that the total area is 340 square meters.

what is the width of the pad?

my guess is 1 meter

2.
use the quadratic formula.

2x^2−5x−9=0

enter the solutions, in simplified radical form, in the boxes.

x =
or x =

Part 1) The width of the pad is

Part 2) The solutions are

 and

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1)

Let

x----> the width of the pad

we know that

Solve for x

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing

The solution is

see the attached figure

Part 2) we have

we know that

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form is equal to

in this problem we have

so

substitute in the formula

answer: i'm not going to give you the answer, but some hints to work it out.

step-by-step explanation: so, if there is a straight line that means that the line angle is 180°. so we subtract the 2 angle measures provided, (15 and 38) from 180. so the answer is 180 - (38 + 15). (you have to solve the equation)
