Answer:
A) L = 2*W
B) 2L + 2W = 42
We'll put Equation A) into B)
2*2W + 2W = 42
4W + 2W = 42
6W = 42 cm
Width = 7 cm
Length = 14 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance = speed * time
d = 65.2 * 1.8
d = 117.36 miles <==
46.25 according to my calculator
Since they are similar, the dimensions are in the same ratio. L1 = 5, L2 = 15, so they are in a 3:1 ratio. So if V1 = 60, then W1×H1 = 60/5 = 12
W2 must also be 3×W1 and H2 3×H1, and
3×3 = 9. So take 12×9 (W×H1×9) ×15 (L2) = V2
V2 = 12×9×15 = 1620 cm^3
Let me know the right answer when you find out!
A) a=the initial value ($1650)
b=1-percent of decrease (0.81 or 81%)
B) About 3 years
