<u>Answer:</u>

length = 39 inches

width = 11 inches

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Assuming the length of the rectangle to be l and width to be w, we can write the length as:

l = 3 w + 6

We know that perimeter of the rectangle is 100 inches and its formula is:

<em>Perimeter of a Rectangle = 2l + 2w</em>

So substituting the given values in the above formula:

100 = 2l+2w

100=2(3w+6)+2w

100=6w+12+2w

8w=100-12

8w=88

w=11

Substituting this value of w to find the length l:

l=3(11)+6\\\\l=33+6\\\\l=39

Therefore, the length = 39 inches and width = 11 inches.

Answer:

The width is 11 inches

The length is 39 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of a rectangle is 6 inches more than 3 times the width

l= 3w+6

Perimeter is 100 inches

P = 2(l+w)

100 = 2(l+w)

Substitute in for l

100 =2(3w+6 +w)

Combine like terms

100 =2(4w+6)

Divide each side by 2

100/2 = 2/2 (4w+6)

50 = 4w+6

Subtract 6 from each side

50-6 =4w+6-6

44 = 4w

Divide by 4

44/4 = 4w/4

11 =4

The width is 11 inches

Now we need to find the length

l= 3w+6

l= 3(11)+6

l = 33+6

l = 39 inches

1. Find the value of
spin [16.1K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1. -√5
  2. 3/5
  3. -4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant relations are ...

  sec = ±√(tan² +1)

  cos = 1/sec

  csc = 1/sin = ±1/√(1 -cos²)

Sine and Cosecant are positive in quadrants I and II. Cosine and Secant are positive in quadrants I and IV.

__

1. sec(θ) = -√((-2)² +1) = -√5

2. cos(θ) = 1/sec(θ) = 1/(5/3) = 3/5

3. csc(θ) = -1/√(1 -(-3/5)²) = -√(16/25) = -4/5

A rectangular auditorium seats 1302 people. The number of seats in each row exceeds the number of rows by 11. Find the number of
sveticcg [70]
Number of seats = 42

Seats per row x row = 1302
s x r = 1302

rows + 11 = seats per row
r + 11 = s

s x r = 1302
(r + 11) x r = 1302
r^2 + 11r = 1302
r^2 + 11r - 1302 = 0
(r + 42) x (r - 31) = 0
r = -43 or 31

Cannot have negative rows so the number of rows is 31, and the number of seats per row is 31 + 11 = 42

Check: 31 x 42 = 1302 :)

If a hose is filling a swimming pool at a rate of 20 liters per minute, how long will it take to fill the 3,600-gallon pool?
Cloud [144]

Answer: the correct answer is 11 hours, 21 seconds and 3738 fractions of a second.

Step-by-step explanation:

An American gallon has 3.78541 liters.

3,600 gallons are 13,627.46 liters since 3,600 gallons * 3.78541 liters per gallon= 13,627.46 liters

We will need 681.3738 minutes to fill the pool since 13,627.46 liters divided by 20 liters per minute = 681.3738 minutes

681.3738 minutes is 11 hours and 21.3738 seconds since 11*60 minutes + 21.3738 minutes = 660 minutes + 21.3738 seconds = 681.3738 or 681.3738 divided by 60 minutes ( 1 hour ) is 11 hours and 21.3738 seconds.
