How do you measure the perimeter of a shape​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Advocard [28]2 years ago

Perimeter is a measure of the area or distance around a two-dimensional shape. On a rectangle, for instance, the perimeter is the total length of the rectangle's outline, including the two widthwise borders and the two lengthwise borders.

<u><em> To determine the perimeter of a shape</em></u>, therefore, you add together all the dimensions that make up the shape's outer edge. Being able to find the perimeter of a shape has many applications in the real world. Say, for example, that you wanted to build a fence around your backyard. In order to purchase materials, you need to know how much fencing you'll need, and to determine that you have to figure out the perimeter of the area you want to fence in.

3 in to 2 ft in simplest form
BigorU [14]
<span>The goal in simplifying numbers is to reduce it that can be best seen in the eye.  Also in converting units, you must take note of the units given in the problem. If you don’t, you would get a lot of errors. Length is the measure of distance and can be best represented by either in SI units or English units.  Example of an SI unit is meter, m, and English unit is feet, ft. You are given 3 inches and 2 feet. You can convert any of the numbers into a number that would feel comfortable to you. I will take 3 inches. Note that there are 12 inches in 1 feet. So divide 3 by 12 and you will get ¼ feet. Then divide 2 feet to ¼ feet and you will get 8.</span>

Mark has $100,000 to invest. His financial consultant advises him to diversify his investment in three types of bonds: short-ter
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Short-Term investment: 5000$

Intermediate-Term investment: 65000$

Long-Term investment: 30000$

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct our first equation lets define sort-term bond investment as x, long-term investment as y.

So the equation is:

x*0,04+(100000-x-y)*0,05+y*0,06=5250

From the equation it is found that:

y=25000+x

Instead of y, if we put 25000+x the equation will be as following:

x*0,04+75000*0,05+(25000+x)*0,06=5250

From the equation it is found that:

x=5000

Short-Term investment is 5000$

x+25000=y

Long-Term investment is 30000$

Rest of the money is Intermediate-Term investment 65000$

6th grade math help me please ! :))
Stells [14]

Answer:

1,825 days

Step-by-step explanation:

730 / 2 = 365 (one year, or the number of days a single revolution around the sun takes)

Now just multiply by 5

[365 · 5 = 1,825], thus 1,825 days are the duration of 5 revolutions.

The problem could also be initially expressed as:

x = (720/2) · (5) with x representing the missing value
