L= length= 2w+4
w= width
P= perimeter= 7w-3


SOLVE FOR WIDTH
Perimeter of a Rectangle Formula
P= 2(l + w)

7w - 3= 2((2w + 4) + w)
combine like terms in parentheses

7w - 3= 2(3w + 4)
multiply 2 by parentheses

7w - 3= (2*3w) + (2*4)
multiply in parentheses

7w - 3= 6w + 8
add 3 to both sides

7w= 6w + 11
subtract 6w from both sides

w= 11 width


LENGTH
l= 2w + 4= 2(11) + 4= 22 + 4= 26

PERIMETER
P= 7w-3= 7(11) - 3= 77 - 3= 74

CHECK
74= 2(26 + 11)
74= 2(37)
74= 74


ANSWER: The length is 26, the width is 11 and the perimeter is 74.

Hope this helps! :)

The formula for the volume of a tetrahedron is given as v=sh. Rewrite the
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

h = 6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a tetrahedron is given as :

V = sh

Where

s is area of base and h is height

Put s = 8 and V = 48 to find h as follows :

h=\dfrac{V}{s}\\\\=\dfrac{48}{8}\\\\h=6

So, the height of the tetrahedron is 6 units.

An architect designs a rectangular flower garden such that the width is exactly​ two-thirds of the length. If 390 feet of antiqu
Ksenya-84 [330]

Length (L): L

width (w): (2/3)L

Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w

               390 = 2(L) + 2(2/3)(L)

               1170 = 6L + 4L

               1170 = 10L

                  117 = L

width (w): (2/3)L   = (2/3)(117) = 2(39)   = 78

Answer: width = 78 ft, length = 117 ft

Solve ln 2 + ln x = 5. Round to the nearest thousandth, if possible.
azamat

Answer:

The  value of x nearest to thousandths is, 74.207

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve :  \ln 2 + \ln x = 5

\ln represents the logarithmic function with base e.

Using logarithmic properties:

  • \ln (mn) = \ln m + \ln n
  • \ln x = a , then x = e^a

\ln 2 + \ln x = 5

Apply the logarithmic properties; we have

\ln 2x = 5

then;

2x = e^5

or

2x=148.41315910258

Divide both sides by 2 we get;

x = 74.2065796

Therefore, the value of x nearest to thousandths is, 74.207
