The perimeter of a rectangular metal plate is 15 cm. Find the length of the rectangular plate (in decimals) whose width is 228 c

The Solution.

Representing the problem in a diagram, we have

By formula,

$P=2(L+W)$

In this case,

$P=15\operatorname{cm},L=?,W=\frac{22}{8}cm$

Substituting these values in the formula above, we get

$15=2(L+\frac{22}{8})$

Clearing the bracket, we get

$15=2L+(2\times\frac{22}{8})$ $\begin{gathered} 15=2L+\frac{11}{2} \\ \\ 15=2L+5.5 \end{gathered}$ $\begin{gathered} 15-5.5=2L \\ 9.5=2L \end{gathered}$

Dividing both sides by 2, we get

$L=\frac{9.5}{2}=4.75\approx4.8\operatorname{cm}$

Therefore, the correct answer is option C.

0 ft elevation, diver is underwater at depth of 138 ft. In this area, the ocean floor has a depth of 247 ft. A rock formations r

KiRa [710]

We know that the ocean floor has a depth of 247 ft, and we also know that the diver is underwater at depth of 138 ft, so its distance from the ocean floor will be:
 $247-138=109$ ft

Now, the rock formations rises to a peak 171 to above the ocean floor, so to find how many feet below the top of the rock formations is the diver, we are going to subtract the distance to the driver form the ocean floor from the rock formations height:
 $171-109=62$ ft

We can conclude that the diver is 62 feet below the top of the rock formations.
