The length of the rectangle is 474 inches and the width of the rectangle is 220 inches.

A rectangular rug has a perimeter of 1388 inches. The length is 34 inches more than twice the width.

We need to find the length and width of the rug.

<h3>What is a perimeter of a rectangle?</h3>

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the lengths of all its sides.

Let the width of the rectangle be x inches, and then the length of the rectangle be 2x +34 inches.

We know that, the perimeter of the rectangle=2(Length+Width)

Now, 1388 inches =2(2x+34+x)

⇒6x+68=1388

⇒6x=1320

⇒x=220 inches

Width=220 inches and Length=2x+34=440+34=474 inches.

Hence, the length of the rectangle is 474 inches and the width of the rectangle is 220 inches.

A rectangular garden must have a perimeter of 150 feet and an area of at least 1200 square feet. Describe the possible lengths o
kipiarov [429]

Answer: 51.86 and 23.14

Step-by-step explanation:

The rectangular garden must have a perimeter of 150 feet

Perimeter of rectangular garden =

2l + 2w=150 -----------1

The rectangular garden must have a perimeter of 150 feet and an area of at least 1200 square feet.

Area of rectangular garden =

l×w= 1200 feet^2 -----------2

From equation 2, l=1200/w

Put l=1200/w in equation 1

2× 1200/w + 2w = 150

(2400/w) +2w = 150

(2400+2w^2)/w =150

2400+2w^2= 150w

2w^2- 150w+2400=0

Using the general formula

w = [-b+-√(b^2-4ac)]/2a

a = 2, b =-150, c=2400

w =[--150+/-√(-150^2-4×2×2400)]/2×2

=[150+/-√(22500-19200)]/4

=[150+/-√3300)]/4

=(150+57.45)/4 or (150-57.45)/4

w= 207.45/4 or 92.55/4

w= 51.86 or w= 23.14

l = 1200/51.86 or l= 1200/23.14

l = 23.14. or l= 51.86

For an area of at least 1200ft^2

The dimensions are 51.86 and 23.14

Find the length of CU, the triangles are similar.
Otrada [13]

Answer:

CU = 117

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{WC}{WU} = \frac{CD}{UV}

substituting in values to the ratios

\frac{26}{36x-1} = \frac{24}{132} ( cross- multiply )

24(36x - 1) = 3432 ( divide both sides by 24 )

36x - 1 = 143 ( add 1 to both sides )

36x = 144 ( divide both sides by 36 )

x = 4

CU = 36x - 1 - 26 = (36 × 4) - 27 = 144 - 27 = 117
