Recall that the equation to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2(L + w)

Since we know the length, we can make an equation:

2(3 + w) = 12

Divide both sides by 2:
(3 + w) = 6
w = 3

Now that we know both length and width, we simply have to find their product to solve for area:

a = L * w
a = 3 * 3
a = 9

The area of the rectangle is 9 cm^2.

This is what we know so far.

Perimeter: 12cm

Rectangle Length: 3cm

Theoretically speaking if one side is 3cm (it's a rectangle not a square)

then it cannot be 3cm on all sides because that would be a square.

If it was 3cm on all sides the area would be 9cm. Because it is a rectangle one side would be 3cm and the other 4cm. (12÷3=4)

Answer:

The area is 12 cm.

Equation: 3 ×. 4 = 12cm

Formula: length × width

Simplify <br>(sinA +cosA) (sinA-cosA) ​
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

-cos(2A)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that (a+b) (a-b) = a^2-b^2

So it means we can simplify to sin^2(A)-cos^2(A) and we know cos^2(A) - sin^2(A) = cos(2A) but we will just multiply by -1 and we get - cos(2A)

PLEASE HURRY WITH THE ANSWER NOT A GUESS THE ANSWER!!!!
ohaa [14]
This is the concept of scale factors, if figure 1 was dilated to figure 2 the scale factor was given by;
scale factor=[length of figure 2]/[length of figure 1]
length of figure 1=18
length of figure 2 =3
thus;
The scale factor of the dilation will be:
3/18
=1/6

The population of algae in an
mezya [45]

The equation is y = 20(1.40)^x

where x is the number of days and y is the future amount after x days go by

The 1.40 is from the fact that 1+r = 1+0.40 = 1.40, where r is the decimal form of 40%, so r = 0.40

-----------------------------

Plug in x = 7 to get

y = 20(1.40)^x

y = 20(1.40)^7

y = 210.827008

y = 211

We round to the nearest whole number since it doesn't make much sense to have a fractional portion of an algae. After 7 days, there are about <u>211</u> algae.

Both windows are congruent. What is the combined area of the two windows?
Gnom [1K]
The area of the triangle is 3 because b•h/2, and the area of the rectangle is 3 because l•w, added together that equals 6, and doubled that equals 12. So I think the answer is C, 12 square feet.

A cone has a radius of 7 m and a height of 18 m . What is the approximate volume of the cone to the nearest tenth? Use 3.14 for
abruzzese [7]
The answer is 923.2 because I found the circumference of the circle which was 153.86 and since it is the volume of the cone you would use the formula V=1\3BH. Using that formula you would do: 1/3*153.86(18) and that would get you 923.16 and since it looks like the answer wants you to round, you would get 923.2. Hope that helps!
