The dimensions of the rectangle are:

Length = 14.75 m

Width = 10.75 m

<h3>What is the Perimeter of a Rectangle?</h3>

The total length of a rectangle is gotten by adding all it's side lengths together. The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is given as:

Perimeter = 2(length+ width).

The dimensions for a rectangle is given as:

Perimeter = 51 meters

Length of rectangle = L meters

Width of rectangle = (L - 4) meters.

Therefore:

2(L + (L - 4)) = 51

2(L + L - 4) = 51

2(2L - 4) = 51

4L - 8 = 51

4L = 51 + 8

4L = 59

L = 59/4

L = 14.75

Length of rectangle = 14.75 m

Width of rectangle = (L - 4) = 14.75 - 4 = 10.75 m

The sum of two integers is 51. The larger number is 3 more than 5 times the smaller number. Find the value of the larger number
Alona [7]

Answer:

Larger number = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

Smaller number = x

Larger number = 5x + 3

Sum of two integers = 51

x + 5x + 3 = 51    

       6x + 3 = 51

             6x = 51-3

             6x = 48

               x = 48/6

                x = 8

Larger number = 5x + 3

                         = 5*8 + 3

                          = 40 + 3

                         = 43

Jada is making a circular birthday invitation for her friends . The diameter of the circle is 12 cm. She bought 180 cm of ribbon
iVinArrow [24]
She can make 4.

Explanation:

First you gotta find the circumference of the circle which is 37.68

Circumference=Diameter•pi

Pi is 3.14 in case you didn’t know.

Now divide the amount of ribbon she has by the circumference and you get 4.77…

So to make it simple we just say 4 because she wont want to make 4 and a half invitations.
