The length of a rectangular deck is 4 times its width if the decks perimeter is 30 ft, what is the decks area

Mathematics

omeli [17]2 years ago

Answer:

The area of the rectangular deck is 36 sq feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the deck  =  k ft

So, the length of the deck = (4k) ft

Now, perimeter = 30 ft

PERIMETER OF A RECTANGLE =  2(LENGTH + WIDTH)

⇒2( k + 4k)  = 30

or, 2 x 5k = 30   ⇒  10k = 30

⇒ k = 30/10 = 3

So, the width of the deck = k  = 3 ft

Length of the deck = 4k = 3 x 4  = 12 ft

Now, AREA OF A RECTANGLE =  LENGTH X WIDTH

So, the area of the rectangular deck = 3 ft x 12 ft

                                                             = 36 sq feet

Hence, the area of the rectangular deck is 36 sq feet.

If if the branding division were to experience the same percentage increase from year 2 to year 3 as they did from year 1 to yea
Sedaia [141]
Since the basis is from year 1 to year 2, calculate first for the difference of their percentages. That would be:

Difference = year 2 - year 1
Difference = 2.32% - 1.1% = 1.22%

We apply this same value of percentage increase from year 2 to year. Thus, the percentage for year 3 is:

% Year 3 = % Year 2 + percentage increase
% Year 3 = 2.32% + 1.22%
% Year 3 = 3.54%

Sketch the algebra-tile shape at right on your paper. Write an expression for the
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

Part 1) P=(4x+4)\ units

Part 2)

a) P=32\ units

b) P=26\ units

c) P=13\frac{1}{3}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question in the attached figure</em></u>

Part 1) Write an expression for the  perimeter of the shape

we know that

The figure is composed by a larger square, a rectangle and a smaller square

1) The area of the larger square is given

A=x^2\ units^2

so

The length and the width of the larger square is x units

2) The area of the rectangle is given

A=x\ units^2

so

The length of the rectangle is x units and the width is 1 unit

3) The length and the width of the smaller square is x units

see the attached figure N 2 to better understand the problem

Find out the perimeter

The perimeter is the sum of all the sides.

so

P=(x+x+x+x+1+1+1+1)

P=(4x+4)\ units

Part 2) Find the perimeter for each of the given values of x.

a) For x=7 units

Substitute the value of x in the expression of the perimeter

P=(4(7)+4)=32\ units

b) For x=5.5 units

Substitute the value of x in the expression of the perimeter

P=(4(5.5)+4)=26\ units

b) For x=7/3 units

Substitute the value of x in the expression of the perimeter

P=(4(\frac{7}{3})+4)=\frac{40}{3}=13\frac{1}{3}\ units
