P = 2(L + W)
P = 36
36 = 2(L + W)
36/2 = L + W
18 = L + W....L = 18 - W

A = L * W
A = 65
L = 18 - W

65 = W(18 - W)
65 = 18W - W^2
W^2 - 18W + 65 = 0
(W - 13)(W - 5) = 0

W - 13 = 0  .....L = 18 - 13
W = 13            L = 5
                        

W - 5 = 0         L = 18 - 5
W = 5              L = 13

Not exactly sure which (length or width)...but one is 13 ft and the other is 5 ft

Answer: If the length of rectangle is 13 feet , then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-13=5 feet.

If the length of rectangle is 5 feet, then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-5=13 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Perimeter of rectangular region = 36 feet

Area of rectangular region = 65 sq feet

Let the length of rectangle be 'l'.

Let the breadth of rectangle be 'b'.

As we know the formula for perimeter of rectangle :

Perimeter=2(l+b)\\\\36=2(l+b)\\\\18=l+b\\\\l=18-b

And area of rectangle = Length × Breadth

so, it becomes

65=b(18-b)\\\\65=18b-b^2\\\\b^2-18b+65=0\\\\b^2-13b-5b+65=0\\\\b(b-13)-5(b-13)=0\\\\(b-13)(b-5)=0\\\\b=13,5

Hence, If the length of rectangle is 13 feet , then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-13=5 feet.

If the length of rectangle is 5 feet, then the breadth of rectangle would be 18-5=13 feet.

Neptune’s average distance from the sun is 4.503 x 10e9 km. Mercury’s average distance from the sun is 5.791 x10e9 km.about how
Igoryamba

Answer:

77.76 times

Step-by-step explanation:

The average distance of Neptune  from the sun

= 4.503  ×  10 ⁹  k m .

and Mercury  =  5.791  ×  10 ⁷ k m .

Hence neptune is (  4.503  ×  10 ⁹) ÷ (5.791 × 10 ⁷  ) times farther from the sun than mercury

i.e.(  \frac{4.503}{5.791} )  × 10⁹⁻⁷ times

=   0.7776  ×  10 ² times

=   77.76  times.
