Answer: 5.88 feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this formula

Interest =principal×rate×time/100

Principal is the actual growth=3ft

Rate is the 32%

Time is 3yrs

Interest =3×32×3/100

Interest =2.88

To get the value for 3yrs,add the interest to the principal value

Exact value in 3yrs=

3+2.88

=5.88 feet tall

The length of a rectangle is twice it’s width.The perimeter of the rectangle in 162 inches.How long is the rectangle?

Artist 52 [7]

The perimeter of a rectangle is all sides added up, so length + length + width + width.

L = length

W = width

then the perimeter is L+L+W+W, or 2L + 2W, or 2(L+W).

$\bf \textit{perimeter of a rectangle}\\\\
P=2(L+W)~~
\begin{cases}
P=162\\
L=\stackrel{\textit{twice W}}{2W}
\end{cases}\implies 162=2(2W+W)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{162}{2}=3W\implies 81=3W\implies \cfrac{81}{3}=W\implies 27=W$

what's the length? well, is just 2(27).
