Let the width = x.
The length is 15 ft more than the width, so the length is x + 15.
The perimeter is less than or equal to 150 ft.

Perimeter formula:
P = 2L + 2W

The perimeter must be less than or equal to 150 ft.
2L + 2W \le 150

Now we solve for x, the width.

2(x + 15) + 2x \le 150

2x + 30 + 2x \le 150

4x + 30 \le 150

4x \le 120

x \le 30

x is at most 30 ft.
x is the width.
The length is x + 15, so the length is 30 + 15 = 45.
The length is at most 45 ft.

What is the answer of the next equation?3(n-6)=27
pychu [463]

Answer:

n = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation:     3*(n-6)-(27)=0

Pull out like factors :      3n - 45  =   3 • (n - 15)

Then:   3 • (n - 15)  = 0  

It's pretty easy from there, good luck!

Suppose the area of a circle is 4π. What is its diameter?
mart [117]
Area=pi times radius^2 so

if area=4pi=pi times r^2
4 times pi=r^2 times pi
divide both sdies by pi
4=r^2
square root
2=radius since legnth cannot be negative

radius=1/2 diamters
2 radius=diameter
2(2)=diameter=4
diameter=4
