Answer:

65.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Find the width of the rectangle.

The formula for the area of a rectangle is

A = lw

Data:

A = 265.5 m²

l = 18 m

Calculation:

265.5 = 18w

w = 265.5/18 = 14.75 m

Step 2. Calculate the perimeter

The perimeter (P) of a rectangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides.

P = 2(l + w) = 2(18 + 14.75) = 2 × 32.75 = 65.5 m

The perimeter of the rectangle is 65.5 m.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Two similar polygons, means a similarity would exist in both polygons

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l +w)
Perimeter of the larger rectangle = 36 (because it's the largest figure)
equation becomes 36 = 2(L + W)
since L = 14, it becomes = 36 = 2(14 +W)
36 = 28 + 2W
2W = 36 - 28 = 2w = 8

w = 4.

Now we assume that since the rectangles are similar, they would have similar dimensions, in this case Width. so with this, we find length of smaller rectangle.

21 = 2(L + 4) = 21 = 2L + 8

2L = 21 - 8 = 2L = 13

L = 13/2 = 6.5.

lastly the product of the length of both polygons = 14 * 6.5 = 91.

Their Products length is 91

Pls help me with number

Answer:

Total people = 240

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of people by 'x'.

$\sf \text{Number of men =$ \dfrac{1}{4}*x$} \\$

$\sf \text{Number of women =$\dfrac{1}{3}x$}$

Number of children = 100

When we subtract the total number of men and women from the total people 'x', we get the number of children.

$\sf x - \left(\dfrac{1}{4}x+\dfrac{1}{3}x\right)= 100\\\\x - \left(\dfrac{1*3}{4*3}x+\dfrac{1*4}{3*4}x\right)=100\\\\$

$x- \dfrac{4+3}{12}x=100\\\\x - \dfrac{7}{12}x = 100\\\\ \dfrac{12}{12}x-\dfrac{7}{12}x = 100\\\\ \dfrac{5}{12}x=100\\$

$\sf x = 100*\dfrac{12}{5}\\$

x = 20 * 12

x = 240

<h3> Total number of people = 240</h3>
