Answer:

W=4 l=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width

Let l = length

Since the length is 4 times the width, l=4w

Perimeter of rectangle = 2l + 2w

= 2(4w)+2w

=10w

The perimeter of the rectangle =40, so

40=10w and w=4

Plug w into the length equation : l=4w=4(4)=16

Why does a siren have a higher pitch as it approaches you?
Airida [17]

Answer:

Apparent Increase in Wave Frequency

As the ambulance approaches you, the distance between the source of the waves and the observer decreases. Consequently, the siren sounds more shrill as the pitch of the wailing siren 'sounds' higher than its original value, as sound waves reach you 'more frequently'.

Step-by-step explanation

write an equation in slop-intercept form for a line that is perpendicular to the line y= -5x-3 and has a y-intercept of 6.
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = 1/5x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, to find the slope of a perpendicular line, you need to find the opposite and reciprocal of the original slope. Since the original is -5, we first change the sign (which makes it just 5). Now we take that 5 and flip it to get 1/5.

Now that we have the slope as 1/5, we can use that and the intercept in slope-intercept form to get the equation.

y = mx + b

y = 1/5x + 6

Let the height of the rectangle = h

2b + 2h = 100

2(38) + 2h = 100

2h = 100 - 76

h = 12mm

area of rectangle = base x height

= 38 x 12

= 456mm²
