Answer:

height=100feet

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of a rectangle=p=500 feet

p=2a+2b equation 1

a=height

b=base

we have: b/a=3/2

so a=(2*b)/3

in equation 1 we have:

500=2*((2*b)/3)+2*b

so we have

500=(4*b)/3 + 2*b

500=(4b+6b)/3

500=(10b)/3

500*3=10b

b=(500*3)/10

b=150 feet =base

a=(2*150)/3=100 feet = height

on a recent hike through riverbend park antoinette traveled 2/3 mile in 1/3 hour . Which unit rate describes antoinettes speed i

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

Her speed is of 2 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Velocity:

The velocity is given by the following formula:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance and t is the time.

2/3 mile in 1/3 hour .

This means that $d = \frac{2}{3}, t = \frac{1}{3}$

Which unit rate describes antoinettes speed in miles per hour?

This is v. So

$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{1}{3}} = \frac{2}{3}*\frac{3}{1} = 2$

Her speed is of 2 miles per hour.
