Answer:

Length of AB  = 6 cm

Length of the segment BC =  14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, B is a point on a segment AC.

AB : BC = 3:7

Length of the segment AC = 20 cm

Now, let the common ratio between the segment is x.

So, the length of AB = 3 x , and Length of BC = 7 x

Now, AB + BC = AC

⇒  3x + 7x = 20

or, 10 x = 20

or, x = 2

Hence, the length of AB = 3 x = 3 x 2 = 6 cm

and the length of the segment BC = 7x =  7 x 2 =  14 cm

The length of a rectangle is 4 m more than the width. If the area of the rectangle is 77 m2. How many meters long is the width o
kenny6666 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

length = width + 4

length×width = 77

using the first in the second equation

(width + 4)×width = 77

width² + 4width = 77

now, what square or squaring factors can create this ?

we are looking for (width + a)(width + b).

we know, this is

width² + (a+b)width + ab

so, what a, b can create 4 (the factor in our actual equation) ?

1, 3 and 2, 2, if we are only looking at whole numbers.

and which of the possibilities can we use to turn 77 into a square number ?

81 is only 4 away ...

2+2 = 4.

aha !

so, we can actually say our equation is

width² + 4width + 4 = 77 + 4

and then

(width + 2)² = 81

width + 2 = 9

width = 7 m

length = width + 4 = 7 + 4 = 11 m

If p=3(2q+r), express q in terms of p and r.​
Kruka [31]

Answer:

q=\frac{1}{6}p- \frac{1}{2}r

Step-by-step explanation:

p=3(2q+r)

2q+r=\frac{p}{3}

2q=\frac{p}{3} -r

q=\frac{p}{6}- \frac{r}{2}
