As we can see that the sides of the rectangle have been doubled

6.2 ft changed to 12.4 ft

Now when the sides have been doubled

the Perimeter will also be doubled

So the perimeter of new rectangle should be the double the perimeter of old rectangle

So perimeter of new rectangle = 2 (16 ) = 32 feet

Option C is correct

Las edades de dos hermanos tienen una razón de 2 a 1. Cuando transcurran 4 años, la razón entre sus edades será de 8 a 6. ¿Cuánt

Nataly [62]

Answer:

The age of brothers are 4 years and 2 years respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the ages of two brothers have a ratio of 2 to 1. When 4 years have passed, the ratio of their ages will be 8 to 6.

Let the age of the first brother be 'x years' and the age of the second brother be 'y years'.

So, according to the question;

The first condition states that the ages of two brothers have a ratio of 2 to 1, that means;

$\frac{x}{y} =\frac{2}{1}$

$x=2y$ -------------- [equation 1]

The second condition states that when 4 years have passed, the ratio of their ages will be 8 to 6, that means;

$\frac{x+4}{y+4}=\frac{8}{6}$

$6({x+4})=8}(y+4)$

$6x+24=8y+32$

$6(2y)+24=8y+32$

$12y-8y=32-24$

$4y=8$

$y=\frac{8}{4}$ = 2 years

Putting the value of y in equation 1 we get;

x = 2y

x = $2 \times 2$ = 4 years

Hence, the age of brothers are 4 years and 2 years respectively.

The base of the 37 foot ladder is 9 feet from the wall of a building. will the top of the ladder reach a window ledge 35 feet ab

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The math in this problem is that we need to use the Pythagorean theorem to solve it. Pythagorean theorem is part of trigonometry a branch of Maths.

Data

base = 9 ft

length = 37 ft

height = ?

Pythagorean theorem

c² = a² + b²

length = c

base = a

height = b

37² = 9² + b²

-Solve for b

b² = 37² - 9²

-Simplify

b² = 1369 - 81

b² = 1288

-Result

b = 35.88

-Conclusion

The ladder will reach a height higher than 35 ft.

A colony of bacteria triples in link every 10 minutes. It's length is now 1 mm. How long will be in 40 minutes

Nuetrik [128]

If the bacteria is tripling every 10 minutes, that means the "rate of increase" on that period is 200%, so if say the current amount is "c", 200% of "c" is just 2c, so c + 2c is 3c, a tripled amount.

$\bf \textit{Periodic Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{p}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &1\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{200}{100}\to &2.00\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &40\\
p=period\to &10
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=1(1 + 2)^{\frac{40}{10}}$
