C)w=p/2+L
D)w=p/2-L

D) p/2 - l

because, p= 2(l+w)
P/2=l+w
w=p/2-L

A farmer has a rectangle field with a perimeter of 5.4 miles and a length of 2.3 miles. Find the width of the field. The width o

Alja [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2*(length + width)

53 m = 2*(2.3 m +w) . . . . an equation to find the width, w

26.5 m = 2.3 m +w . . . . . divide by 2

24.2 m = w . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 2.3 m

The width of the rectangle is 24.2 m

What value of x is in the solution set of 9(2x + 1) < 9x - 18? <br> -4<br> -3<br> -2<br> -1

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

The only possible answer that is correct is the first one, x = -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the given inequality as much as possible, and then substitute each of the given x values one by one to determine which is in the solution set.

9(2x + 1) < 9x - 18 becomes 18x + 9 < 9x - 18, which, if reduced by dividing all four terms by 9, becomes 2x + 1 < x - 2.

Simplifying further, we get x < - 3. The only possible answer that is correct is the first one, x = -4. -4 < -3 is true.

6. A sporting goods store receives an order of 100 baseball caps, of which 22 are green. If 1 of

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

$\text{A. }39/50$

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability that a randomly selected cap will not be green is equal to the number of non-green caps divided by the total number of caps.

Since there are 100 caps total and 22 are green, there must be $100-22=78$ non-green caps.

Divide this by the total number of caps (100) to get the probability that a randomly selected cap will not be green:

$\frac{78}{100}$

Simplify by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2:

$\frac{78}{100}=\boxed{39/50}$

The sum of three times a number and seven is greater than twice the number minus four

I'm guessing you want this written as an equation, so here it is.
3n+7>2(n-4)
These can be really tricky at times, so I suggest looking for "clues" in the wording, such as add, subtract, and other things. Also look for what numbers are "paired" together, like in parentheses. Hope that this helps!
