Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length of rectangle be "l"

Let width of rectangle be "w"

We know,

LENGTH is 2 MORE THAN WIDTH, we can write:

l = w + 2

Also, note the perimeter is the sum of all 4 sides of a rectangle, thus:

length + width + length + width

Now,

The perimeter is given as 72, so we can write:

l + l + w + w = 72

2l + 2w = 72

We have 2 equations that we need to solve and find the length (l).

The first equation is:

l = w + 2

Rearranging, we have:

w = l - 2

We put this into 2nd equation and find the value of l:

2l + 2w = 72\\2l + 2(l-2) = 72\\2l+2l-4=72\\4l-4=72\\4l=76\\l=\frac{76}{4}\\l=19

The length is 19 meters, the correct answer is C

A private ship carries two types of cargo: large crates and extra-large crates. Each type of crate weighs a specific amount.
Arisa [49]

Answer:

G. 32

Step-by-step explanation:

32 x 335 = 10720

16,100 - 10720 = 5380/190 = 28.3157894737

275 x 32 = 8800

18,800 - 8800 = 10,000/400 = 25 (This is the closer).

30 x 335 = 10,050

16,100 - 10,050 = 6050/190  = 31.8421052632

30 x 275 = 8250

18,800 - 8250 = 10550/400 = 26.375 (Same reason why it does't work)

25 x 335 = 8375

16,100 - 8375 = 7725/190 = 40.6578947368

25 x 275 = 6875

18,800 - 6875 = 11925/400 = 29.8125

24 x 335 = 8040

16,100 - 8040 = 8060/190 = 42.4210526316

24 x 275 = 6600

18,800 - 6600 = 12200/400 = 30.5

sergiy2304 [10]
First find the area of the base, and multiply that by the height. That's the answer.

Area of the base: pi * 3*3 = 3.14*9 = 28.26
Volume of the cylinder: 28.26*8 = 226.08 cubic units
