Benito and Tyler are painting opposite sides of the same fence that is 150 feet long. Tyler has already painted 19.5 feet of his side of the fence when Benito starts painting. Tyler paints at a rate of 11 ft/min, and Benito paints at a rate of

15 ft/min.

a. About how long will it take for the two sides of the fence to have an equal number of feet painted.

b. The painter who finishes first gets to rest while the other painter finishes. About how long will the painter who

finishes first get to rest?

(b) 240

step-by-step explanation:

first, we use the pythagorean formula using the given side lengths to find x. then we use x to find the side lengths. then we add the side lengths to find the perimeter.

pythagorean theorem formula:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(x - 20)^2 + (x - 40)^2 = x^2

x^2 - 40x + 400 + x^2 - 80x + 1600 = x^2

x^2 -120x + 2000 = 0

(x - 100)(x - 20) = 0

x - 100 = 0 or x - 20 = 0

x = 100 or x = 20

we see that the solution x = 20 must be discarded because it will give a negative side length and a side length of 0. the only valid solution is x = 100.

perimeter = sum of the lengths of the sides

perimeter = x + x - 20 + x - 40

perimeter = 3x - 60

replace x with 100.

perimeter = 3(100) - 60

perimeter = 300 - 60

perimeter = 240

( - 4 , -7 )

all the lines must parallel  

step-by-step explanation:

coordinates of c = ( - 1 , 2 )

3 units left = ( -4 , 2 )

9 units down = ( - 4 , 11 )

there are no choices to this, can you give us some choices so that i can answer it

step-by-step explanation:

answer

a) the midrange of the data set shown is 85.5

step by step explanation

let's find the midrange.

the midrange is nothing but add the greatest value and the least value, then divide it by 2.

here the greatest value = 99

the least value = 72

midrange = (99 + 72)/2

= 171/2

midrange = 85.5

you.
