The answer is B. No, the rectangle cannot have x=20 and y=11 because x + y does not equal 32.

The reasoning is, 20 + 11 = 31. In order to find the perimeter around the whole object, you will need to multiply 31 by 2 and get 62.

But, x is ONLY 20 and y is ONLY 11. It is not saying x(2) and y(2), so your answer has to be B.

B. No, the rectangle cannot have x = 20 and y = 11 because x + y ≠ 32

Perimeter = 2(l + w)
Perimeter = 64

Assuming: P = 64; w = 11 ; l = ?
64 = 2(l + 11)
64/2 = l + 11
32 - 11 = l
length = 21.

When 21 is subtracted from the square of a number, the result is 4 times the number. Find the positive solution.
wel

Let x = your number.

x^2 - 21 = 4x. Subtract 4x from both sides.

x^2 - 4x - 21 = 0. Factor.

(x - 7) (x + 3) = 0. Set each term to 0.

x + 3 = 0. Subtract 3 from both sides.

x = -3. This is the negative solution.

Set the other term equal to zero.

x - 7 = 0. Add 7 to each side.

x = 7. This is the positive solution.

A recipe requires 3/4 cups of nuts for 1 cake. Enter the maximum number of cakes that can be made using 7 1/2 cups of nuts
nirvana33 [79]
10 cakes can be made

Explanation:
Convert 7 1/2 to an improper fraction
15/2 divided by 3/4
Flip the second fraction and multiply instead of divide
15/2 x 4/3
multiply the tops: 15 x 4 = 60
Over the bottoms multiplied together 2x3=6
60/6=10
therefore 10 cakes can be made

PLS HELP ASAP! Given a cone with a height of 6 cm and a base diameter of 6 cm, what is the volume of the cone? Use 3.24 for π
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

56.52 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

\boxed{volume \: of \: cone =  \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2}h }

Diameter= 2 ×radius

Radius

= 6 ÷2

= 3cm

Height, h= 6cm

Volume of the cone

=  \frac{1}{3} (3.14)( {3}^{2} )(6)

= 56.52 cm³
