Answer:

5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

If the perimeter of the rectangle on the right is 24 m, and the length is 8, the width has to be 4, since 8+4+8+4=24. Since the scale factor is 24÷30=0.8 or 4/5, and the width of the rectangle on the right is 4, 4÷0.8=5, which is the width of the rectangle on the left.

Hope this helps! (P.S. I got it right on Edgenutiy, spelled wrong on purpose).

Dr. Clarence invested $5000 in an account that draws 3.2% interest, compounded annually. What is the total value of the account
castortr0y [4]
It's simple, you just have to times everything. 5000 x 3.2% x 5 years. After calculating these, 3.2 is as 0.032 so there would be three decimal places. So then it will e 5000 x 0.032 x 5
