Answer: 51.4275 or 51.428571 (repeating decimals) feet

Step-by-step explanation:

P = perimeter

L = length

W = width

Represent W as  \frac{3}{4} L

Find L

P = 2L + 2W

240 = 2L + 2(\frac{3}{4}L)

240 = 2L + \frac{3}{2} L  or you can write 3/2 as 1.5

240 = 2L + 1.5L

240 = 3.5L

\frac{240}{3.5} L = \frac{3.5L}{3.5}

L =  ≈ 68.57 or 68.571428 (but this is <em>repeating decimals</em> so I rounded it)

Find W

\frac{3}{4} L

\frac{3}{4}  * 68.57 = 51.4275

Or if you want unrounded version 51.428571 (repeating decimals)

A Speedboat increases in speed uniformly from 20m/s to 30m/s for 12.2 s. What is the acceleration of the speedboat?
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

0.82 m/s^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

initial velocity=20m/s

Final velocity= 30m/s

Time = 12.2s

Applying the formula

a= v-u/t

a= 30-20/12.2

a= 10/12.2

a= 0.819

a=0.82 m/s^2
