Answer:

Dimensions : 37.5 * 12.5

length : 37.5

width : 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

let x = length and y = width

x = 3y based on info from problem

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

100 = 2(x + y)

substitute 3y for x

100 = 2(3y + y)

100 = 2(4y)

100 = 8y

y = 12.5

x = 3(12.5) = 37.5

Answer: length = 37.5 inches

Width = 12.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the rectangle.

Let W represent the width of the rectangle.

The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

The perimeter of the rectangle is 100 inches. This means that

100 = 2(L + W)

Dividing through by 2, it becomes

50 = L + W- - - - - - - - - - - -1

The length of a rectangle is three times its width. This means that

L = 3W

Substituting L = 3W into equation 1, it becomes

50 = 3W + W

4W = 50

W = 50/4 = 12.5

L = 3W = 3 × 12.5

L = 37.5

A set of composite numbers less than 12 .express it in listing and set builder methods​
marusya05 [52]

Given:

A set of composite numbers less than 12.

To find:

The set by listing and set builder methods​.

Solution:

Composite number: A positive integer is called a composite number if it has at least one divisor other than 1 and itself.

Composite numbers less than 12 are 4, 6, 8, 9, 10.

By using the listing method , the given set can be expression as:

Set = {4, 6, 8, 9, 10}

The numbers 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 are greater than 1, less than 12 and non prime numbers.

By using set builder method, the given set can be expression as:

Set = \{x|x\neq P,1

Therefore, the list and set builder notation of the given set are {4, 6, 8, 9, 10} and \{x|x\neq P,1 respectively.
