the perimeter of a rectangle is 132 m. the length is 2 meters more than 3 times the width. find the dimensions of the rectangle

1 answer:

7 0

2l + 2w = 132
l = 3w + 2

2(3w+2)+2w=132
6w + 4 + 2w = 132
8w + 4 = 132
8w = 128
w = 16

l = 3(16) + 2
l = 48 + 2
l = 50

2(50) + 2(16) __ 132
100 + 32 = 132

This problem can be solved by manipulating the formula for power, which is: P = VI. Where:

P = Power in watts
V= Voltage in volts
I = Current in amperes

Since we are already given the power and voltage, simple substitution can be done.

P = VI
3.5 watts = 120 volts * I
I = 3.5 / 120
I = 0.0292 Amperes or 29.2 milliAmperes

Therefore, the current through the bulb is 29.2mA

True

(1) You can prove two triangles are similar using AA similarity.

(2)If side length of similar figure have ration $\frac{m}{n}$ then the ratio of surface areas will be: $\frac{m^2}{n^2}$
