A total of 2587 students attended the collage

<h3>How to determine the number of students in the college?</h3>

From the question, the given parameters are:

Proportion of students = 56% are at the collage
Total number of students = 4628

The above parameters implies that

Number of students that attended = 56% x Total number of students

Represent the total number of students with x

So, we have the following representation

Number of students that attended = 56% * x

Where

x = 4620

So, we have

Number of students that attended = 56% x 4620

Evaluate the products

Number of students that attended = 2587.2

Approximate

Number of students that attended = 2587

Hence, 2587 of the students attended the collage

Find the perimeter of a rectangle whose length is 3 cm greater than its height, and whose area is 40 cm².

jonny [76]

Answer: $26\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle can be calcualated with this formula:

$P=2l+2h$

Where "l" is the lenght and "h" is the height.

The area of a rectangle can be found with this formula:

$A=lh$

Where "l" is the lenght and "h" is the height.

In this case we know that:

$A=40\ cm^2$

Therfore, we can susbsitute them into $A=lh$ and solve for "h" in order to find its value:

$40=(h+3)h\\\\40=h^2+3h\\\\h^2+3h-40=0$

Find two number whose sum is 3 and whose product is -40. These are -5 and 8. Then, factorizing, we get:

$(h-5)(h+8)=0\\\\h_1=5\\\\h_2=-8$

The positive value is the height. Then:

$h=5\ cm$

Since the length is 3 centimeters greater than its height, we get that this is: Then:

$l=5\ cm+3\ cm\\\\l=8\ cm$

Substituting values into $P=2l+2h$ , we get that the perimeter is:

$P=2(8\ cm)+2(5\ cm)\\\\P=26\ cm$

Susan has a rectangular fence around her swimming pool. The fence she built was 15 ft long, 10 ft wide and 6ft tall. How many sq

Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

300 Square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan built a rectangular fence around her swimming pool.

Length=15ft

Width(or Breadth)=10ft

Height=6ft

To solve this, picture a cuboid with the top and bottom open, that is the key to finding the Surface Area of the Fence.

Surface Area of a Cuboid= 2(LW+LH+WH)

However since the top and bottom are open, the Surface Area becomes

Surface Area of the fence= 2(LW+WH)

=2((15X6)+(10X6)

=2(90+60)=2 X 150 =300

Susan uses 300 Square feet to build her fence.
