Answer:

The length is 25 units and the width is 11 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be l.

Let the width of the rectangle be w.

We are given that the length of the rectangle is three times more than twice its width. This means that:

l = 3 + 2w

The perimeter of a triangle is given as:

P = 2(l + w)

This implies that:

P = 2[(3 + 2w) + w]

P = 2(3 + 3w)

We can use this to find the width of the rectangle and then the length.

The perimeter of the rectangle is 72 units.

Therefore:

72 = 2(3 + 3w)

72 = 6 + 6w

=> 6w = 72 - 6 = 66

w = 66 / 6 = 11 units

The length, l, is therefore:

l = 3 + 2(11) = 3 + 22 = 25 units

(11) Geometry Help pls
Mazyrski [523]
Answer: There are 10 sides

---------------------------------------------

x = measure of each interior angle
y = measure of each exterior angle

We know that x = 4y as "each interior angle is four times the measure of each exterior angle"

The interior and exterior adjacent angles are supplementary
x+y = 180
4y+y = 180
5y = 180
5y/5 = 180/5
y = 36

If y = 36, then
n = 360/y
n = 360/36
n = 10

A force of 84N is applied to an area of<br> 15cm". Work out the pressure in N/cm².<br> cm3)
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:  5.6 N/cm^2

============================================

Work Shown:

Pressure = (Force)/(Area)

P = F/A

P = (84 N)/(15 cm^2)

P = (84/15) (N/cm^2)

P = 5.6 N/cm^2

For every square cm, 5.6 newtons of force is applied.

-------------

Extra info:

If you wanted to convert this to pascals, then you would need to convert 15 cm^2 to 0.0015 square meters. Then apply the formula above to get 56,000 pascals. 1 pascal is equivalent to 1 N/m^2.
