Answer:

Option 1 - x=0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The area of a rectangle is 0.8 square units. The length is 3.2 units and the width is x units.

To find : What is the value of x?

Solution :

The area of the rectangle is given by,

$A=L\times W$

The length of the rectangle is L=3.2 units

The width of the rectangle is W=x units

The area of the rectangle is A=0.8 square units

Substitute the value in the formula,

$0.8=3.2\times x$

$x=\frac{0.8}{3.2}$

$x=0.25$

Therefore, Option 1 is correct.

The value of x is 0.25.

Area= l*b
0.8=3.2*x
0.8/3.2=x
x=0.25 units

How to explain why a trapezoid is a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral is not always a trapezoid

Alex787 [66]

A quadrilateral is any figure with 4 sides, no matter what the lengths of
the sides or the sizes of the angles are ... just as long as it has four straight
sides that meet and close it up.

Once you start imposing some special requirements on the lengths of
the sides, or their relationship to each other, or the size of the angles,
you start making special kinds of quadrilaterals, that have special names.

The simplest requirement of all is that there must be one pair of sides that
are parallel to each other. That makes a quadrilateral called a 'trapezoid'.
That's why a quadrilateral is not always a trapezoid.

Here are some other, more strict requirements, that make other special
quadrilaterals:

-- Two pairs of parallel sides . . . . 'parallelogram'

-- Two pairs of parallel sides
AND all angles the same size . . . . 'rectangle'
   (also a special kind of parallelogram)

-- Two pairs of parallel sides
AND all sides the same length . . . 'rhombus'
   (also a special kind of parallelogram)

-- Two pairs of parallel sides
AND all sides the same length
AND all angles the same size . . . . 'square'.
   (also a special kind of parallelogram, rectangle, and rhombus)

a fishbowl shaped like a sphere is filled with water. The fishbowl has a diameter of 16 inches. Which measurement is closest to

gregori [183]

Answer:

The volume of the water in the fishbowl is equal to

$(682\frac{2}{3})\pi\ in^{3}$ or $2,144.6\ in^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the sphere (a fishbowl) is equal to

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

In this problem we have

$r=16/2=8\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi (8^{3})=\frac{2,048}{3}\pi\ in^{3}$

convert to mixed number

$\frac{2,048}{3}\pi\ in^{3}=\pi (\frac{2,046}{3}+\frac{2}{3})=(682\frac{2}{3})\pi\ in^{3}$

$(3.14156)*(682\frac{2}{3})=2,144.6\ in^{3}$

Mr. Greg had 8 sandwiches. He gave 1/4 to Nehamiah, 1/4 to Elijah, and 1/4 to Elizabeth. How many sandwiches did Mr. Greg have l

SVEN [57.7K]

There are many ways to work this out. One way could be:

Add up:
1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 3/4

Find 3/4 of 8 so;
8 / 4 = 2
2 x 3 = 6

Find what's remaining:
8 - 6 = 2

So Mr.Greg has sandwiches left.
Hope it helped :)
