We know the perimeter and the length.
The only unknown is the length.
We write the given equation and substitute what we know.
Then we solve for what we are looking for, the length.

Pr = 2L + 2W

288 = 2L + 2(50)

288 = 2L + 100

188 = 2L

94 = L

The length is 94 ft.

using the given formula, fill in the numbers where they belong

perimeter = 288

 width = 50

so Pr = 2l + 2w becomes

288 = 2l +2(50)

288 = 2l +100

subtract 100 from each side

188 =2l

 divide both sides by 2

 l = 188 /2

l = 94

 length = 94 feet

Penny needs 30 cubic ft of sand to fill a sandbox. She plans to buy 10 bags of sand for her sandbox. Each bag contains 2.9 cubic
Romashka [77]
The correct answer is C.

Because: 2.9 multiplied by 10 bags equals 29cubic ft and she needs 30 cubic ft. So she would need to buy 11 bags to make sure she has enough sand for the whole thing. 11 x 2.9 = 31.9 which ensures she has enough for the whole thing including extra in case. So you answer would be Answer C.

What is 2 5/6 +1 5/7
mylen [45]
Hi Cherise1cherhop lets break this equation down with these steps:

1) add the whole numbers first

2) find the LCD of the fractions and that would be 42 since 42 can go into both denominators through multiplication

3) make the denominators (bottom numbers) the same as the LCD (42)

4) simplify it, now the denominators are equal

5) join the denominators together

6) simplify it (3 + 65/42)

7) convert 65/42 to mixed fraction

8) now that we made it a mixed fraction, simplify it

Answer: 4 23/42

Line A goes through the points (1, 5) and (-1, 9). Line B goes through the points (0, 2) and (4, -6). Which of the following sta
Delvig [45]
B is correct. Explanation Below:
---
Line A never intersects Line B, as they are parallel lines-the slopes are the same-and parallel lines never intersect. 
Line A's Slope: (9-5)/(-1-1) = -2
Line B's Slope: (-6-2)/(4-0) = -2

Hope this helps!
