So first of all we need to know that area is length times width
Area = L x W 
since we know the area is 42 and the length is 12 lets plug those in
42 = 12 x W 
now we dont know what W is yet but we can figure it out by dividing 42 by 12
42/12 = 3.5 
So W = 3.5!
but its asking for the perimeter and we know that perimeter is all of the sides of the rectangle added up. Heres a picture
   
       ___3.5___
      |                 |
      |                 |
 12 |                 |  12 
      |                 |
      ************
             3.5

see now we just add those all up together:)

12 + 12 + 3.5 + 3.5 = 31!!
so our perimeter is 31 inches:)
have a good one

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: B.  |x-100| = 25

Explanation:

Draw out a number line. Mark 75, 100 and 125 on the number line as points A, B, and C in that order. Don't worry about the spacing.

The value of x represents where the train is. So if we had say x = 85, then it would be at location 85 on the number line. Writing |x-100| is the distance from x to 100. The absolute value ensures the distance is never negative. We want this distance to be 25 because after traveling 25 cm, the switch is turned, and the train goes the other way.

A baseball player has 39 hits in 134 times at bat. how many hits must he get in the next 46 times at bat to finish the year with
faust18 [17]

Answer:

He must get 33 hits in his next 46 times at bat to finish the year with a .400 batting average

Step-by-step explanation:

The player has already batted 134 times and will still bat 46 times. So in the end of the year, he is going to have 134 + 46 = 180 at bats.

How many hits does he need to have to hit .400?

This is 40% of 180, which is 0.4*180 = 72.

He has already 39 hits, so in his next 46 at bats, he will need 72 - 39 = 33 hits.
