Answer:

Look to the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets think how to write a short story represents this expression

* Remember multiplication must solved before subtraction, so we

can think that:

- 6 multiply by 24 can represented by six bags each one has 24 items

- Subtract f can be represented by someone takes 5

- We can chose bags or boxes for 6

- We can chose sweets or marbles to 24

- We can say sister or brother or friend takes 5

- Lets try to make a short story to represent this situation

* Nadine has six boxes of marbles. Each bag has twenty four

marbles with different colors, she wants to give her sister

Sarah 5 marbles. Write an expression to model this situation

* The expression is 6 * 24 - 5

The Length of a rectangle is 5 centimeters less than twice its width . The perimeter of the rectangle is 80cm. What are the dime

borishaifa [10]

Perimeter is the sum of all a shapes sides.

with that in mind, we know a rectangle has four sides. with 2 pairs being the same.

The length as told is, 5 centimeters less than two times the width. Two times the width would be 2w and five less than that would be minus five. so the length is 2w - 5

now to find the perimeter we do two times the width + two times the length.

2w + 2(2w -5) = 80.
Distribute: 2w + 4w - 10 = 80
Add ten to both sides and combine the 2w & 4w:
6w = 90
Divide both sides by 6: w = 15.

with this we know the width is 15. to find length plug in 15 to the 2w - 5 equation.

2(15) - 5 = 30 - 5 = 25.

Slap on the units and width = 15 cm, length = 25 cm

No question but can you help me with Finding PI lol I don’t really get it. I will mark brainliest 60 points 30 for each person t

Answer:

Make sure you are using a perfect circle. This method won't work with ellipses, ovals or anything but a real circle. A circle is defined as all the points on a plane that are an equal distance from a single center point. The lids of jars are good household objects to use for this exercise.You should be able to calculate pi roughly because in order to get exact results of pi, you will need to ...

Measure the circumference of a circle as accurately as you can. The circumference is the length that goes around the entire edge of the circle. Since the circumference is round, it can be difficult to measure (that's why pi is so important). Lay a string over the circle as closely as you can. Mark the string off where it circles back around, and then measure the string length with a ruler.

Measure the diameter of the circle. The diameter runs from one side of the circle to the other through the circle's center point.

Use the formula. The circumference of a circle is found with the formula C= π*d = 2*π*r. Thus pi equals a circle's circumference divided by its diameter. Plug your numbers into a calculator: the result should be roughly 3.14.[3] X Research source

Repeat this process with several different circles, and then average the results.
