If the length of a rectangular yard is represented by w+4 and the width by 2w+5, write a simplified expression in terms of w tha
adell [148]

Answer:

P = 6w + 18

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a plane shape having a LENGTH and a WIDTH.

Length (l) = w + 4

Width (w) = 2w + 5

To write a simplified equation in terms of w to represent the total length, let's used the idea of a PERIMETER of a RECTANGLE.

Perimeter (P) = 2 ( l + b)

Where l = length= w + 4

Where b = width = 2w + 5

P = 2( w + 4 + 2w + 5)

P = 2( 3w + 9)

P = 6w + 18

The manager of a snack bar buys bottled water in packs of 35 and candy bars in packs of 20. Then, she sells the items individual
Lerok [7]

\Huge\bf{\underline{\red \dag { Aиѕωєя }}} \red \dag

4 Packs of water and 7 Packs of candy bars.

So, we wanna know the smallest number that both 35 and 20 will go into.

Find the Least Common Multiple (LCM), but to find the LCM we need to find the prime factorization of each of the following number :-

\sf {35 = 5(7)}

\sf \red {20 = 5(4)}

\sf {4 = 2(2)}

\sf \red {20 = 5(2)(2)

~Now multiply all the numbers by 5 :-

\sf  \pink{5(7)(2)(2) = 35(2)(2) = 70(2) = 140}

This means she needs 140 bottles of water and 140 candybars.

Water is sold in packs of 35, this means that she needs :

\sf \orange{ \frac{140}{35}  = 4\: packs \: of \: water}

Candy bars are sold in packs of 20, this means she needs :

\sf \green{ \frac{140}{20}  = 7 \: packs \: of \: candy \: bars}

Describe what Pi is and explain how it is used in finding the circumference of a circle.
Softa [21]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pi ( written as the Geek letter π) is a universal constant  found by dividing the circumference of a circle by it's diameter. So if you measure the diameter of a circle you can calculate it's circumference by multiplying by π.

Circumference = π * diameter.

It's value to the nearest hundredth is 3.14 but its actual value is a decimal number that goes on without bounds. That is in Maths it is irrational and can't be written accurately as a fraction.

How do you do this problem? Explain.
Elza [17]

Answer:

The charges will be the same after 4 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Amount = y

Number of hours = x for x > 2

Garage A: y = $7.00 + (x - 2)*3

Garage B: y = 3.25*x

Part 3: What is the cost to be equal?

3.25x = 7 + 3(x - 2)                     Remove the brackets

3.25x = 7 + 3x - 6                       Collect terms on the right

3.25x = 3x + 1                              Subtract 3x from both sides.

3.25x - 3x = 3x - 3x + 1               Combine

0.25x = 1                                     Divide by 0.25

0.25 x/0.25 = 1 / 0.25            

x = 4 hours.
