Answer:
35.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter (P) is calculated as
P = (2 × 6.75 ) + (2 × 
)
= 13.5 + (2 × 11) = 13.5 + 22 = 35.5 cm

Answer:
- sides: 12 feet
- front: 28 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of one side of the yard. Then the width of the yard is 2x+4, and the perimeter is ...
P = 2(L +W) . . . . . . . . . . formula for perimeter of a rectangle
80 = 2(x + (2x+4)) . . . . . with values from the problem filled in
40 = 3x +4 . . . . . . . . divide by 2, collect terms
36 = 3x . . . . . . . . . subtract 4
12 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 3. This is the length of the side fence.
2x +4 = 2(12) +4 = 28
The fence is 12 feet on the sides and 28 feet on the front. (Its total length is 52 feet.)
I'm attaching the solution.. feel free to ask if you have questions.. I basically did long division. Hope this helps.
The answer is 96 min, here is why:
x / 240 + x / 160 = 1
<span>2x + 3x = 480 </span>
<span>5x = 480 </span>
<span>x = 96 min
(</span><span>Drainage rate of first pipe = 480000/240 = 2000 l/min </span>
<span>Drainage rate of second tube = 480000/160 = 3000 l/min </span>
<span>Combined drainage rate = 5000 l/min </span>
<span>Time to drain = 480000/5000 = 96 min. )</span>
Answer:
y = 0.5 (x^2 -2x + 16) has a y-intercept of 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
The x-coordinate of every y-intercept is zero. To determine which of the four quadratics given here has a y-intercept of 8, we need only substitute 0 for x in each; if the result is 8, we've found the desired quadratic.
O y = 0.5(x + 2)(x + 4) becomes y = 0.5(2)(4) = 4 (reject this answer)
O y = 0.5 (x - 2)(x + 8) becomes y = 0.5(-2)(8) = -8 (reject)
O y = 0.5(x2 -2x - 16) becomes y = 0.5(-16) = -8 (reject)
<em>O y = 0.5 (x2 -2x + 16) becomes y = 0.5(16) = 8 This is correct; that '8' represents the y-intercept (0, 8).</em>
