The length of a rectangle is 5 in longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 34 in , find its area.

1 answer:

3 0

Area(A)= lw
perimeter(P)= 2w+2l= 34in
length(l)= w+5
width(w)= w

1/2 P= 17= w+l
17= w+(w+5)
17= 2w+5
2w=12
w=6 in

l= w+5
l= 6+5
l=11 in

A= lw= (11)(6)= 66in²

Answer:
Area of rectangle is 66 in².

A triangle has two sides of length 2 and 18. What is the largest possible whole-number length for the third side?

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 sides of a triangle then the third side x is

difference of 2 sides < x < sum of 2 sides , that is

18 - 2 < x < 18 + 2

16 < x < 20

Then the largest possible length of the third side is 19

One side of triangle is 3 times the shortest side. The third side is 24 feet more than the shortest side. The perimeter is 94 .

Gemiola [76]

Answer: x+3x+X+24=94

5x+24=94

-24. -24

5x=70

X=14

One side is 14 second side 3(14)=42. Third side 14+24= 38

14+42+38=94
