rectangle
Mathematics

Answer:

The length is 26 feet and the width is 23 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l represent the length of the rectangle.

The width can be represented by l - 3, since it is 3 feet less than the length

Set up an equation:

l + l + (l - 3) + (l - 3) = 98

Add like terms and solve for l:

l + l + (l - 3) + (l - 3) = 98

4l - 6 = 98

4l = 104

l = 26

So, the length is 26 feet.

Since the width is l - 3, we can plug this in for l to find the width:

l - 3

26 - 3

= 23

So, the length is 26 feet and the width is 23 feet

What is the scale factor?
pickupchik [31]
Place each triangle in a fraction (side over side), and set each equal to each other.

6/9 = x/15

Isolate the x, cross multiply

6(15) = 9(x)

Simplify.

90 = 9x

Isolate the x, divide 9 from both sides

90/9 = 9x/9

x = 90/9

x = 10

Find the scale factor, find out what number is being multiplied to make the measurements become from one number to the other. Divide one of the larger triangle's sides with the smaller.

15/9 = 1.67 (rounded).

The scale factor is ~1.67

What is the approximate volume of a cylinder with a height of 2 ft and a radius of 6 ft?
patriot [66]
We know, Volume of a Cylinder = πr²h
Here, r= 6 & h = 2

Substitute their values into the expression:
V = 3.14 * (6)² * 2
V = 3.14 * 36 * 2
V = 3.14 * 72
V = 226.08

In short, Your Answer would be 226.08 Ft³

Hope this helps!
