360x.6+360=576
I got .6 because 40% would be .4 and 40+60=100
So Riggie collected 576 cans and bottles

Tanner = 40% * Reggie;

Reggie = Tanner : 40%;

Reggie = 360 : 40/100 = 360 * 100/40 = 900 bottles

The width of a rectangle is two cm less than 8 times the length. The perimeter is 88 cm. What is the width and length of the rec

kati45 [8]

Let's the length to be x,

then the width is 8x - 2.

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2*Width + 2*Length

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(8x-2) + 2x = 16x - 4 + 2x = 18x - 4

Ar the same time, Perimeter of the rectangle = 88.

So, we can write

18x - 4 = 88

18x = 84

9x=42

x= 42/9 cm (length) or ≈ 4.67 cm (length)

8x - 2 = 8*42/9 - 2 ≈ 35.33 cm (width)

Polygon CCC has an area of 404040 square units. K 2ennan drew a scaled version of Polygon CCC using a scale factor of \dfrac12 1

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

Area of polygon D = 10 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Polygon C has an area of 40 square units.

It is scaled with a scale factor of $\frac{1}2$ to form a new polygon D.

To find:

The area of polygon D = ?

Solution:

When any polygon is scaled to half, then all the sides of new polygon are half of the original polygon.

And the area becomes one-fourth of the original polygon.

Let us consider this by taking examples:

First of all, let us consider a right angled triangle with sides 6, 8 and 10 units.

Area of a right angled triangle is given by:

$A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times Base \times Height\\\Rightarrow A = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 8 = 24\ sq\ units$

If scaled with a factor $\frac{1}{2}$ , the sides will be 3, 4 and 5.

New area, A':

$A' =\dfrac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 4 = 6\ sq\ units = \dfrac{1}4\times A$

i.e. Area becomes one fourth.

Let us consider a rectangle now.

Sides be 8 and 10 units.

Area of a rectangle, A = $Length \times Width$ = 8 $\times$ 10 = 80 sq units.

Now after scaling, the sides will be 4 and 5 units.

New Area, A' = 4 $\times$ 5 =20 sq units

So, $\bold{A' = \frac{1}4 \times A}$

Now, we can apply the same in the given question.

$\therefore$ Area of polygon D = $\bold{\frac{1}{4}}$ $\times$ Area of polygon C

Area of polygon D = $\bold{\frac{1}{4}}$ $\times$ 40 = 10 sq units
