Call the width x.  Note that the length is 3x-6.  We know that double the width plus double the length is 120, so we write an equation:

2(x)+2(3x-6)=120
2x+6x-12=120
8x-12=120
8x=132
x=16.5
If x is 16.5, the width is 16.5, and the length is 3 \cdot 16.5 - 6 = 43.5.

If 110% of a number is 528, then the number is:
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

c) 480

Step-by-step explanation:

Any percentage can be converted to a number ratio by dividing by 100%.

E.g. 100%/100% = 1

Following this concept, we can find the equivalent of 110% :

110%/100% = 1.1

Since 528 is 1.1 times the number we are looking for, we just need to divide 528 by 1.1 to find our number. This is because 1.1/1.1 = 1

528/1.1 = 480

Hope this helped!

Given the formula C= 1/2t(c1-c2), solve for t.
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

t=\frac{2C}{c1-c2}

Step-by-step explanation:

C=\frac{1}{2}t(c1-c2)\\2(C)=2(\frac{1}{2}t(c1-c2))\\2C=t(c1-c2)\\\frac{2C}{c1-c2}=\frac{t(c1-c2)}{c1-c2}\\t=\frac{2C}{c1-c2}

Help please!!! asap! 10 points!
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

Fr^2/Gm_2=m_1

Step-by-step explanation:

What you do first is you have to cross-multiply so f*r^2 and 1*gm_1m_2 to get

Fr^2=Gm_1m_2. Next you will divide Gm_2 from both sides to get

Fr^2/Gm_2=m_1 as your answer.
