Answer:

Length is 14 in

Width is 8 in

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Length = l
  • Width = w
  • Perimeter = P = 44 in
<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>Equations as per given:</u>

  • l - w = 6
  • P= 2(l+w) = 44 ⇒ l +w = 22

<u>Adding up the two equations:</u>

  • l - w  + l +w = 6 + 22
  • 2l = 28
  • l = 28/2
  • l = 14 in

<u>Then finding the value of w:</u>

  • w = l -6
  • w = 14 - 6
  • w = 8 in

<u>Answer:</u> The length of the rectangle is 14 inches and width is 8 inches

Find the value of y...​
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite Evaluate Powers:

33^{2y-1}+3^{-1}+2*3^{y}*3^{-1}=1

Calculate:

(3^{y})^{2}*\frac{1}{3} +2*3^{y}*\frac{1}{3}=1

Solve using substitution:

(3^{y})^{2}*\frac{1}{3} +\frac{2}{3} *3^{y}=1     t=3^{y}

Solve the equation for t:

t^{2}*\frac{1}{3}+\frac{2}{3}t=1

t=-3

t=1

Substitute back to t=3^y

3^y=-3

3^y=1

y∉R

3^{y}=1

y=0

How much paper will it take to make each tree including the bottom??
Nataly [62]

The bottom is a square with a side length of 2 ft.

The area of a square is Area = S^2 = 2^2 = 4 square ft. Bottom)

The area of one side ( triangle) = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 2 x 4 = 4 square ft.

There are 4 triangles: 4 x 4 sq. ft. = 16 sq.ft. ( four sides)

Total area = four sides + bottom =  16 + 4 = 20 feet^2
