Answer:

  3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The given relation between length and width can be used in the perimeter formula to find the width.

__

Let w represent the width of the rectangle in centimeters. The length is 4 cm more, so can be represented by (w+4). Using these values and the given perimeter in the perimeter formula, we find ...

  P = 2(L +W) . . . . . perimeter formula

  20 = 2((w +4) +w) . . . . known values substituted

  10 = 2w +4 . . . . . . . . divide by 2, collect terms

  6 = 2w . . . . . . . . . subtract 4

  3 = w . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The width of the rectangle is 3 cm.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The length is 7 cm.

Find out how long it takes a $3,500 investment to double if it is invested at 7%
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

9.99 years

Step-by-step explanation:

P=$3,500

r=7%=0.07

n=4(quarterly)

A= double of $3,500=

$3,500×2=$7,000

t=?

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

$7,000=$3,500(1+0.07/4)^4t

$7,000=$3,500(1+0.0175)^4t

$7,000=$3,500(1.0175)^4t

Divide both sides by $3,500

2=(1.0175)^4t

Take the log to base 10 of both sides

log2=4t × log1.0175

0.30103=4t × 0.00753

0.30103=4(0.00753)t

0.30103=0.03012t

t=0.30103/0.03012

t=9.99435

Answer:

The second one for both a and b.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first cereal box is:

8•3•11=264 inches cubed

the second cereal box is:

10•10•3=300 inches cubed

a. The box that holds more cereal would be the second one, since it has more volume.

b. The box that requires more material to make is the second one, since the it is bigger in volume, therefore, bigger in length and width.

Solve the system of equation
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

So the Point of intersection is (-4,-2)

Which is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

-0.1x - 0.8y = 2              ...................(i)

0.6x - 0.5y = -1.4           ...................(ii)

Let us take equation (i) and use method of substitution for solving it

the equation (i) is

-0.1 x - 0.8y = 2

Adding 0.8y on both sides

-0.1 x + 0.8 y - 0.8 y = 2 + 0.8 y

-0.1 x = 2 + 0.8 y

Dividing both sides -0.1

\frac{-0.1 x}{-0.1}=\frac{0.8 y}{-0.1}+\frac{2}{-0.1}

x = -8 y - 20                     ..........................(iii)

Now we will use this value and put it into equation (ii) to find the value of y

Equation (ii) is

0.6 x - 0.5 y = -1.4

Put value of x

0.6(-8 y - 20) - 0.5 y =-1.4

It becomes

-4.8 y - 12 - 0.5 y = -1.4

adding 12 on both sides

-4.8 y - 0.5 y - 12 + 12 = -1.4 + 12

it becomes by solving

-5.3 y = 10.6

Dividing both sides by -5.3

\frac{-5.3*y}{-5.3}=\frac{10.6}{-5.3}

So

y = -2

Now we have the value of y putting it in equation (iii)

Equation (iii) is

x = -8 y - 20    

Putting value of y

x = -8*(-2) - 20

x = 16-20

x=-4

So the Point of intersection is (-4,-2)
