Since rectangles have two pairs of equal-length sides, for any rectangle with length L and width W, its perimeter is always 2L + 2W (or 2(L + w), whichever you prefer). Here, we're told that the width is 4 feet less than the length. Symbolically, we'd say that W = L - 4. This allows us to write the perimeter entirely in terms of length if we replace our W with the expression on the right side:

2L + 2W = 2l + 2(L - 4) = 2L +2L - 8 = 4L - 8

Sam wants this expression to come out to 52, so we can set up the equality 4L - 8 = 52 and solve for L to find what the length has to be:

Adding 8 to either side, the equality becomes 4L = 60. Diving either side by 4 gives us L = 15, which tells us that the length of the deck should be 15 feet.

First question.

We will build up the 3-dimensional object from the dimensions shown in the view above. In doing this, the object is as shown in figure 1. So, we need to find the volume of this object. Let's cut off this object into two objects, so in doing this we can find the whole volume as the sum of the volume in green plus the volume in red (both are cubes), so:

V_{t} = V_{g}+V_{r} = 8 \times 3 \times 5 + 8 \times 5 \times 8  = 440 ft^{3}

So the answer is G.

Second question

The answer is D. Let's analyze it:

Given that r represents the radius  of the pizza and n the number of slices, so if we substitute r in this equation, then the values for n are:

n =  r^{2}+1

n=2^{2}+1=5
n=4^{2}+1=17
n=5^{2}+1=16
n=8^{2}+1=65
n=10^{2}+1=101

These are the values of n shown in the table above.

erica [24]
204,000 grapefruit.

There are 10 grapefruit in each box and there are 20,400 boxes; you need to multiply the number of grapefruits in each box (10) times the number of boxes (20,400) 

10x20,400=204,000

Don't forget the units! In this problem, the units are grapefruit.
