Answer:

Length =  16 feet , width = 4 feet .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 64 square feet. Its length is 8 feet longer than twice its width.

To find : Find the length and width of the wall of the barn.

Solution : We have given

Area of rectangle = 64 square feet.

According to question :

Let width = W.

Length is 8 feet longer than twicw its width .

Length = 2W + 8

L = 2W + 8.

Area of rectangle = length  * width.

Plug the values.

64 = (2W +8 )W .

64 = 2W² + 8W.

On subtracting both sides by 64.

2W² + 8W- 64 = 0

On taking 2 common from all.

W² + 4 W- 32 = 0

On factoring

W² + 8W -4W - 32 = 0

W (W +8) -4 ( W + 8) = 0

On grouping

(W+8)( W -4) = 0

W = -8 feet, W = 4 feet. ( ignore negative value)

Width = 4 feet.

Length = 2 (4)+ 8.

Length = 16 feet.

Therefore, Length =  16 feet , width = 4 feet .

L×w=64 ft^2...(1)
2w+8= l...(2)

l=64-w...(1a)

2w+8= 64-w
2w+w+8=64
3w=64-8
3w÷3= 56÷3
w=18.6'

l×w= 64
l×18.6= 64
l= 64÷18.6
l= 3.44 to the nearest hundredths.

A. There is a positive correlation between the temperature and the amount of ice cream sold. This means that as the temperature increases the amount of ice cream also increases.

B. For the best fit you must calculate the slope between two points that are more-or-less representative of the entire graph.  In this case it seems to have already done this with certain points so if you take the points (15,35) and (0,5) you can calculate the slope between these two points which is m=(35-5)/(15-0)=30/15=2.  So the best fit slope for this particular case would be two and you would just draw a line through the graph at approximately the middle of the dots to best represent all of the data.

and the y-intercept is 5 so the approximate equation for the graph would be y=2x+5

Find the perimeter of shape #8
Wittaler [7]
The squiggly lines and the 2 straight lines through to sides of the pentagon mean that they are congruent (equal in length).

So, to find the perimeter of a regular polygon, you add all of its sides together.


So, the perimeter= 4x-2+x-2+x-2+x+2+x+2

To simplify it, add all of the x's together.

4x+x+x+x+x=8x

Perimeter=8x-2-2-2+2+2

-2-2=-4-2=-6+2=-4+2=-2

Perimeter=8x-2

Reach out to me if you have any questions. I'd be glad to help! :)
