Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:
P = 2 * (a+b)
This means that sum of two sides is:
64 = 2* (a+b)
a+b=32

Pairs of numbers that add to 32 are:
1+31
2+30
3+29
4+28
5+27
6+26
7+25
8+24
9+23
10+22
11+21
12+20
13+19
14+18
15+17
16+16
We do not consider last pair as it would represent square. Areas these sides cover are:
1*31=31
2*30=60
3*29=87
4*28=112
5**27=135
6*26=156
7*25=175
8*24=192
9*23=207
10*22=220
11*21=231
12*20=240
13*19=247
14*18=252
15*17=255

Maximum area is 255 and lengths of sides are 15 and 17. This answer makes sense because larger sides give larger area.

∠A and \angle B∠B are vertical angles. If m\angle A=(7x-27)^{\circ}∠A=(7x−27) ∘ and m\angle B=(3x+29)^{\circ}∠B=(3x+29) ∘ , then
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles are congruent , then

7x - 27 = 3x + 29 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

4x - 27 = 29 ( add 27 to both sides )

4x = 56 ( divide both sides by 4 )

x = 14

You are a contractor who is installing a new wooden fence for a customer. The dimensions of the fence are 20 feet long and 6 fee
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

$132

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the total number of woods required. This would be total area of fence divided by area of each wood. Remember to convert inch into feet.

\frac{area of fence}{area of wood} \\=\frac{20 * 6}{6 * 0.3333} \\= 60 woods plank

Now we know the total number of planks, we need to find what is the cost of each plank. We know that one wood plank area is 2 sq. ft ( 6*0.33333). Therefore, the cost of each plank is = cost per area(sq.ft) multiply by total area (sq. ft).

cost per plank = 2 * $1.10 =$2.20.

We have total planks = 60 units and we have cost per plank = $2.20.

So, we can find total cost as 60*2.20= $132
