The length of a rectangle is 3 cm longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 46 cm , find its area.

1 answer:

7 0

A) L = W + 3
B) 2L + 2W = 46
Putting equation A into B
2 * (W+3) + 2W = 46
2W + 6 + 2W = 46
4W = 40
Width = 10
Length = 13

Area = Length * Width
Area = 13 * 10
Area = 130 square centimeters

A sea turtle swims at a speed of 27 kilometers per hour. A girl swims 14 decimeters per second. 1 m = 10 dm 1000 m = 1 km How mu

insens350 [35]

The sea turtle's speed is
$v_{t} = (27 \, \frac{km}{h} )*(1000 \, \frac{m}{km} )*( \frac{1}{60} \, \frac{h}{min} ) = 450 \, \frac{m}{min}$

The girl's speed is
$v_{g} = (14 \, \frac{dm}{s} )*( \frac{1}{10} \, \frac{m}{dm} )*(60 \, \frac{s}{min} ) = 84 \, \frac{m}{min}$

The ratio of the turtle's speed to that of the girl is
$\frac{v_{t}}{v_{g}} = \frac{450}{84} =5.357$

Answer: 5.36 faster (nearest hundredth)

You need at least $100 to go to a BTS concert. You have $27 and your allowance is $10

REY [17]

Count by 10s after 27 so continue with 37, 47, 57 until you get past at least 100, which should be 8 times. Therefore it would take 8 weeks of allowance to reach $107

Can anyone help I am doing really mad in math

For this problem, we are going to have to use our order of operations, which is: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division, and Addition and Subtraction (often abbreviated PEMDAS).

First, let's see if there are any parentheses. There is one set of parentheses which we will have to remove. To do this, we will simply multiply the -4 by the 6, given us a value of -24 to take the place of the -4(6). Now our problem is:

$\dfrac{12^2 - 24 + 1}{11^2}$

Next, we will check for exponents. There are exponents, so we will need to take care of those. $12^2$ is equal to 144, and $11^2$ is equal to 121. We can now substitute these values into the original expression to get:

$\dfrac{144 - 24 + 1}{121}$

Now, we will check for any multiplication or division. Besides the entire expression (which is a fraction), there is none, so we will move on to the next step: Addition and Subtraction. You can see there is addition and subtraction in the numerator. $144 - 24$ is equal to 120, and $120 + 1$ is equal to 121. Our problem is now:
