<span>Let x = the width
:
It says,"The length of a rectangle is 4 less than 3 times the width." write that as:
L = 3x - 4
:
If the perimeter is 40, find the dimensions of the rectangle.
:
We know: 2L + 2W = 40
:
Substitute (3x-4) for L and x for W
2(3x-4) + 2x = 40
:
6x - 8 + 2x = 40; Multiplied what's inside the brackets
:
6x + 2x = 40 + 8; do some basic algebra to find x; (added 8 to both sides)

:
8x = 48
:
x = 48/8
:
x = 6 which is the width
:
It said that L = 3x - 4, therefore:
L = 3(6) - 4
L = 18 - 4
L = 14; is the length
:
Check our solutions in the perimeter:
2(14) + 2(6) =
28 + 12 = 40</span>

Length= 3x-4
width= x
perimeter= 72 feet
2(3x-4)+2x=72
6x-8+2x=72
8x-8=72
8x=80
x=10
The width is 10 and the length is 26.

Hope this helps!

The figure below shows a shaded rectangular region inside a large rectangle: (pic)
mariarad [96]

Answer:

D


Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of falling NOT in the shaded region is "area of white region" <em>divided by</em> "area of whole rectangle (big one)".


<u>Area of whole rectangle:</u>

Area of rectangle = length * width = 10 * 5 = 50


<u>Area of White Region:</u>

First, area of shaded region = length * width = 4 * 2 = 8

Now,

Area of white region = area of whole rectangle - area of shaded rectangle

Area of white region = 50 - 8 = 42


Hence, probability is \frac{42}{50}=0.84

0.84 = 84%

Answer choice D is right.

Mai biked 6\frac{3}{4} miles today, and Noah biked 4\frac{1}{2} miles.
Alinara [238K]

It was 1.5 times the length of Noah's bike ride as Mai’s bike ride.

The problem we dealing with is related to mixed numbers which are referred to as mixed numbers and could be the whole number, and a proper division spoke together. It for the most part speaks to a number between any two whole numbers.

Since we are providing mai's rate which is  6 3/4  miles and Noah's  rate of 4 1/2 miles, So in  order to find the time the length of Noah's ride is compared to Mal's, we just need to divide the given rates by each other

=> 6 3/4 divided by 4 1/2,  

=> 27/4 divided by 9/2, (The result is an improper fractions)

=> 27/4 X 2/9

=>3/2

=> 1.5
