The lengths of the sides of a rectangle are 18cm by 3m. Express the area of the rectangle in square decametres.

lubasha [3.4K]

For this case we have that by definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:

$A = b * h$

Where:

b: It is the base of the rectangle

h: It is the height of the rectangle

By definition we have to:

1 meter equals 0.1 decameters

1 centimeter equals 0.001 decameters

According to the data of the statement we have:

$b = 18 \ cm * \frac {0.001} {1} * \frac {decametres.} {cm} = 0.018 \ decameters.\\h = 3m * \frac {0.1} {1} * \frac {decameters} {m} = 0.3 \ decameters.$

Thus, the area of the rectangle is:

$A = 0.018 * 0.3 = 0.0054 \ decameters ^ 2$

Answer:

$0.0054 \ decameters ^ 2$

Please help as soon as possible! Kia's plant is 8 1/5 inches tall and is growing 2/3 of an inch each week. Lyric's plant is 10 7

boyakko [2]

To find the answer, you find out the height of the plants for each week until they're the same.

Equation: Growth × Week + Original Height

For Kia: 2/3w + 8 1/5
For Lyric: 1/6w + 10 7/10
Kia:
Week 0 = 8 1/5 in.
Week 1 = 8 13/15 in.
Week 2 = 9 8/15 in.
Week 3 = 10 1/5 in.
Week 4 = 10 13/15 in.
Week 5 = 11 8/15 in.

Lyric:
Week 0 = 10 7/10 in.
Week 1 = 10 13/15 in.
Week 2 = 11 1/30 in.
Week 3 = 11 1/5 in.
Week 4 = 11 11/30 in.
Week 5 = 11 8/15 in.

Solution: 5 Weeks
