The perimeter is equal to 2(width) + 2(length). let's call the width w and the length L.
so 32 = 2w + 2L
the width is given as 2 meters less than the length, so w = L - 2
32 = 2(L - 2) + 2L
32 = 2L - 4 + 2L
32 = 4L - 4
36 = 4L
9 = L
so our length is 9 meters.
w = L - 2
w = 9 - 2
w = 7
so our width is 7 meters.
Answer: 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow PEMDAS. Parentheses: 16+a, which is 18. There are no exponents so move on to multiplication. 6b. B is equal to 3, and 6x3 is 18. Next, division. 18/3 is 6. Now do addition so add together 18+6 which is 24.
Answer:
There are 68 dogs in the pound.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of pit bull dogs in a pound = P = 23
Number of chihuahuas dogs in a pound = C = 17
Number of mutts dogs in a pound = M = 28
Total number of dogs in a pound = T
There are 68 dogs in the pound.
1.) There are 6 numbers you can roll on a standard dice: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
There are 3 odd and 3 even. Keep in mind that an odd plus an odd will always be even and an even plus an even will always equal an even. Only if you add an odd and an even will you get an odd.
The chances of getting an even sum are much higher which is why you should choose even.
3.) The formula for finding the area of an equilateral triangle is (<span>√3)/4(a^2) where a is just a side length.
Because the perimeter is 12 and each side of an equilateral triangle is equal, we can divide 12 by 3 sides and get each side is 4. Plug in 4 for a.
</span>(√3)/4(4^2) = (√3)/4(16)
Because (√3)/4 = (1 x √3)/4,
(√3)/4(16) is equal to (16 x √3)/4
You have to divide (16 x √3) by 4. 16/4 = 4, and you only need to divide once to. We get 4√3 as the final answer.
Huh? I’m not sure I understand what I just said...
