Answer:

length = 115 cm

width = 108 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 446 centimeters

LEt L be the length of the pool

The width of the pool is 7 centimeters less than the length of the pool.

width = length - 7

W= L-7

Given perimeter = 446

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(length)+2(width)

446 = 2(L) + 2(W)                    we know W = L-7

446 = 2(L) + 2(L-7)    

446 = 2L + 2L - 14

Add 14 on both sides

460 = 4L

divide by 4 on both sides

L= 115

Length L= 115

Width W = L - 7 = 115 - 7= 108

Determine the dimensions of the screen of a 42-inch TV with a 4:3 aspect ratio.
Nitella [24]

For this case, the first thing you should do is know that the measurement of a television is given by the diagonal of the television.

Therefore, to find the value of x, we use the Pythagorean theorem.

We have then:

(3x)^2+(4x)^2=42^2

Rewriting we have:

25x ^ 2 = 1764\\x = \sqrt {\frac {1764} {25}}\\x = \sqrt {70.59}\\x = 8.4

Then the dimensions are given by:

4x = (4 * 8.4) = 33.6\\3x = (3 * 8.4) = 25.2

Answer:

the dimensions of the screen are: 33.6* 25.2

2x+3y=6 and 2x+y=-2 solved by elimination
JulsSmile [24]
The two lines intersect at (-3,4)
-2/3X+2= -2X-2

Add 2X to both sides
Subtract 2 from both sides
Divide both sides by 4/3
You get X=-3
Plug in 3 to one of the equations and you’ll see that y= 4

Suppose that an object whose is 10th weighs 50 N find the weight of an object whose is 6 kg
Nady [450]
Weight is another term for the force from mass multiplied by acceleration due to gravity, the equation being expressed as f = ma, being force, mass, and acceleration respectively.

We already have 2 parts of the equation,50 = 10a 

Acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 5 m/s^2

Plug it into the equation f = ma

f=6kg x 5m/s^2

Weight or force from gravity is 60N.
