Answer:

length = 78 feet

width = 36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using one variable and an expression, you can set up an equation equal to the perimeter to find the measure of each side:

width = 'w'

length = '42ft longer than it was wide' = w + 42

The general formula for the perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2w + 2l

Plugging in the given values and variables:

228 = 2w + 2(w + 42)

Distribute: 228 = 2w + 2w + 84

Combine like terms:  144 = 4w

Divide and solve:  36 = w

w = 36 ft

l = 36 + 42 = 78 ft

The roof of this garden shed has a gradient of 0.35. find the height of the shed​
Ilya [14]

The height of the shed is 2.325 m

The complete question is

The roof of a lean-to-garden shed has a gradient of 0.35.find the height....they have given the base as 1.5m and a shorter height 1.8m its like a house

<h3>What is a right Triangle ?</h3>

In a Triangle when one angle is 90 degree , the triangle is called Right Triangle .

Structure of the house is a right triangle with base = 1.5m

(height of that triangle)/1.5 = 35/100

height of that triangle = 1.5*0.35 = 0.5250

Ans: greater height of the lean-to = 1.8 + 0.5250 = 2.325 meters.

The height of the shed is 2.325 m.

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP ILL MARK BRIANLIEST!!!!!!!!! ANSWER THE QUESTIONS AND DO THE STEPS TOO PLEASEE
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

1). t ≥ -\frac{3}{2}

2). k ≥ \frac{16}{3}

3). y < -\frac{1}{2}

4). b > \frac{250}{9}

5). w ≤ 0

Step-by-step explanation:

1). 14(\frac{1}{2}-t)\leq 28

   \frac{14}{14}(\frac{1}{2}-t)\leq \frac{28}{14}

   \frac{1}{2}-t\leq 2

   -t\leq 2-\frac{1}{2}

   -t\leq \frac{3}{2}

   t ≥ -\frac{3}{2}

2). 15k + 11 ≤ 18k - 5

   15k - 18k ≤ -5 - 11

   -3k ≤ - 16

   3k ≥ 16

     k ≥ \frac{16}{3}

3). 44y > 11 + 88y - 22y

    44y > 11 + 66y

    44y - 66y > 11

    -22y > 11

    22y < -11

    \frac{22y}{22}

    y < -\frac{1}{2}

4). \frac{7}{9}(b - 27) > \frac{49}{81}

    \frac{7}{9}(b - 27)\times \frac{9}{7} > \frac{49}{81}\times \frac{9}{7}

     (b - 27) > \frac{7}{9}

     b > \frac{7}{9}+27

    b > \frac{250}{9}

5). 11w - 8w ≥ 14w

    3w - 14w ≥ 0

    -11w ≥ 0

    w ≤ 0

mezya [45]

A would be (-3, 6).

B would be (-6, 3).

Anytime something is asking you to reflect off of the Y-axis, you put the original but flipped. Also, your answer will always be straight across vertically.
