The perimeter of a rectangle is 96 ft. The ratio of its length to its width is 5 : 3. What are the dimensions of the rectangle?

1 answer:

6 0

I hope this helps you

length/width=5/3

length=5/3width

Perimeter =2 (width+length)

96=2 (width +5/3width)

48=8/3width

width=48.3/8

width=18

length=5/3.18

length=30

For how many integers $n$ is it true that $\sqrt{n} \le \sqrt{4n - 6} < \sqrt{2n + 5}$?

ale4655 [162]

$\bf \sqrt{n}\leqslant \sqrt{4n-6}$

$\bf \sqrt{n}< \sqrt{2n+5}\implies \stackrel{\textit{squaring both sides}}{n< 2n+5}\implies 0\leqslant 2n - n + 5 \\\\\\ 0 < n+5\implies \boxed{-5 < n} \\\\\\ \stackrel{-5\leqslant n < 2}{\boxed{-5}\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}0\rule[0.35em]{3em}{0.25pt}2}$

namely, -5, -4, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1. Excluding "2" because n < 2.

meghan went to the mall and then out to eat with her friends. at the restaurant, meghan spent 3 dollars more than 1/2 the amount

Lerok [7]

She spent $23.25, how I got my answer.

I divided $13.50÷2=$6.75 then I added $6.75+3=$9.75 then I added $9.75+$13.50=$23.25.

I hope this helps.

what is the equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point ( -1,,-4) has a slop of a -3

Vesnalui [34]

The answer has to resemble y=Mx+b so to find your y intercept plug in your coordinates into that equation so put your slope in for m and your x intercept in for x and the y intercept in for y so -4= -3(-1)+b now get b alone -1=b so your equation would be y=-3x-1
