The length is 9.

The formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle is

2L + 2W = P.

2L + 2(4) = 26.

2L + 8 = 26.

2L + 8 (-8) = 26 (-8).

2L = 18.

2L/2 = 18/2.

L = 9.

How do I Rewrite the function by completing the square x^2+8x-29
Flura [38]

Answer:

  (x +4)^2 -45

Step-by-step explanation:

The square of a binomial has the form ...

  (x +a)^2 = x^2 +2ax +a^2

That is, the constant term (a^2) is the square of half the coefficient of the linear term: (2a/2)^2 = a^2.

To "complete the square", you add 0 in the form of the desired constant added to its opposite. Here, we want the constant for the square to be (8/2)^2 = 16. So, we can add 0 = 16 -16 to the expression:

  x^2 +8x +16 -29 -16

  (x^2 +8x +16) -45 . . . . group the terms that make the square

  (x +4)^2 -45 . . . . rewritten after completing the square

The captain of a ship at point A and sailing toward point B observes a lighthouse at L and finds angle LAC to be 36*30'. After s
wel

Answer:

The distance between B and lighthouse is 3.8688 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The angle made from ship to lighthouse is 36.5 degrees

and that of point B is 73 degrees.

To Find:

Distance  Between Point B and Lighthouse

Solution:

<em>Consider a triangle LAB(Refer the attachment )</em>

And Point C is on the line AB as A i.e. ship is sailing to B

So C is at 5 km from A.

Now In triangle LAC,

Using Trigonometry Functions as ,

tan(36.5)=LC/AC

LC=tan(36.5)*AC

=0.7399*5

=3.6998 km

Now In triangle LBC,

As,

Sin(73)=LC/LB

LB=LC/(Sin(73))

=3.6998/0.9563

=3.8688 km

LB=3.8688 km

Evaluate 48/6-10/3 please and thank you :)))
vodomira [7]

Answer:

14/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

48/6 - 10/3

Hint: | Reduce 48/6 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 48 and 6.

The gcd of 48 and 6 is 6, so 48/6 = (6×8)/(6×1) = 6/6×8 = 8:

8 - 10/3

Hint: | Put the fractions in 8 - 10/3 over a common denominator.

Put 8 - 10/3 over the common denominator 3. 8 - 10/3 = (3×8)/3 - 10/3:

(3×8)/3 - 10/3

Hint: | Multiply 3 and 8 together.

3×8 = 24:

24/3 - 10/3

Hint: | Subtract the fractions over a common denominator to a single fraction.

24/3 - 10/3 = (24 - 10)/3:

(24 - 10)/3

Hint: | Subtract 10 from 24.

| 2 | 4

- | 1 | 0

| 1 | 4:

An apple sells for 25 cents and a peach sells for 15 cents. A total of 10 fruits were sold for a total of $2.10. How many apples
hammer [34]

Answer:

6 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 0.25

P = 0.15

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

A + P = 10

0.25A+0.15P=2.10

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

I did this: 0.25*10 = 2.50

2.50-2.10=.40

0.25-0.15=0.10

0.40/0.10 = 4 so 4 peaches

10 fruits - 4 peaches = 6 apples
