Answer:

length = 23 m

width = 16 m

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of a rectangle= p = 2*L+2*w

p = 78 =2*L+2*w

w=width

L=length

w = L-7

78 =2*L+2*w

78= 2L+2( L-7)

78= 2L+2L - 14

78+14= 4L

4L=92

L=92/4

L= 23 m = length

so we have:

w = L-7

w= 23-7= 16 m = width

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length of the rectangle be x

hence, the width of the rectangle is (x-7)

perimeter of a rectangle=2(l+w)

78=2(x+x-7)

78=2(2x-7)

78=4x-14

4x=78+14

x=92/4

therefore x or length=23 m

hence,width will be (x-7) or (23-7)=16m

A bouncy ball is dropped such that the height of its first bounce is 5.5 feet and each successive bounce is 64% of the previous
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

  0.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It can be convenient to let a spreadsheet compute the values for you. Here, we have written an explicit formula for the height of the n-th bounce:

  h = 5.5×0.64^(n-1)

We have written the formula this way because we are given the height of the first bounce, not the starting height. Each bounce multiplies the height by a factor of 0.64. Then the 7th bounce will have a height of ...

  h = 5.5×0.64^6 ≈ 0.378 ≈ 0.4 . . . . feet

The vertices of a rectangle are W(1,2), X(4,2), 7(4, -3), and Z(1, -3). Find the perimeter of the
Andrew [12]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

We could use the distance formula to find the distance between the points in this problem, but when we look we see that the sides of the rectangle are parallel to the x and y-axis for each pair of sides. The first two points have a distance of 3 because 4-1=3. Since it is a rectangle, the opposite side will have the same length. For the sides perpendicular, we look at the points with the same x coordinate. Using (4,2) and (4,-3), we can calculate the length of the side by finding the distance by adding the absolute values of the y coordinate. 2+3=5. This means that the triangle has two sides with a length of 5 and two sides with a length of 3. Adding these together, 5+5+3+3 = 16.

SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

314.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Because we have the radius given to us by BC, we can simply input it into the formula to find the area of a circle, pi(r)^2.

After we insert the given radius, we have pi(10)^2.

We can simply input it into our calculator to find the answer.
