Answer:

The length is 18 Cm

The Width Is 6 Cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation

so perimeter is

2L+2W=P

In this case the perimeter is 48 and one side is 12 cm longer so let’s make the unknown side W, and L as 12+w since the longer side is 12cm longer then the unknown side.

Equation:

2(12+W)+2W=48

Combine like terms and solve the equation

24+4W=48 (I distributed then combined like terms)

Subtract 24 on both sides

4W=24

Isolate the variable by dividing 4 on both sides

W=6

Check:

2(12+6)+2(6)=48?

24+12+12=48✔️

L=W+12
2L+2W=48
2(W+12)+2W=48
2W+24+2W=48
4W=48-24
4W=24
W=24/4
W=6 ANS. FOR THE WIDTH.
L=6+12=18 ANS. FOR THE LENGTH.
PROOF:
2*18+2*6=48
36+12=48
48=48

Hope this helps:)

During second period, Kiera completed a grammar worksheet. Of the 90 questions, she got 70% right. How many questions did Kiera
ANEK [815]

Answer:

we conclude that Kiera got the right 63 questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total questions = 90

The percentage of correct question = 70%

Using the formula

The number of correct questions = 70% of 90

                                                         = [70/100] × 90

                                                          = 0.7 × 90

                                                           = 63

Therefore, we conclude that Kiera got the right 63 questions.

Mean: $620, Mode: $600

Let's sort the rank stats.

First quartile: $580

Median: $610

Third quartile: $645

85th percentile: $685

OK, we're ready.  What happened to a and b?

c. $645 is the third quartile, 75th percentile.  That means 25% of the salaries are higher.

Answer: 25%

d.  $685 is the 85th percentile, 15% greater.

Answer: 15%

e.  The mean is the sum of all the salaries divided by the count.  

Mean = Sum / Count

So the sum is the count times the mean,

Sum = Count × Mean  = 100 × $620 = $62,000

Big payroll.

Answer: $62,000
