Answer:

l = 44 ft

w = 20 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter is

P = 2 ( l+w)

The width is

w = l -24

We know the perimeter is 128 and substituting into the equation for perimeter

128 = 2 ( l + l-24)

128 = 2 ( 2l -24)

Divide by 2

128/2 = 2/2 ( 2l-24)

64 = 2l - 24

Add 24 t o each sdie

64+24 = 2l

88 = 2l

Divide by 2

44 =l

The length is 44

Now find w

w = l - 24

w = 44-24

w = 20

Answer:

\boxed{l=44 \: \mathrm{feet},  \: \: w=20 \: \mathrm{feet}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The width (w) = l - 24

The length (l) = l

The perimeter (P) = 128

The shape is a rectangle. Use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle.

P = 2w + 2l

Plug in the values.

128 = 2(l - 24) + 2l

Solve for l.

Expand brackets.

128 = 2l - 48 + 2l

Combine like terms

128 = 4l - 48

Add 48 on both sides.

176 = 4l

Divide both sides by 4.

44 = l

Apply formula again.

P = 2l + 2w

Solve for w.

Subtract 2w and P on both sides.

-2w = 2l - P

Divide both sides by -2.

w = -l + P/2

Plug in the values for l and P, solve for w.

w = -(44) + 128/2

w = -44 + 64

w = 20

The length is 44 feet.

The width is 20 feet.

The water level in an ocean bay changes at an average rate of 3 meters per hour. At this rate,how many hours would it take for t
Charra [1.4K]

In this big ol' word problem, this is just an instance of basic multiplication/division.

If it takes it 1 hour for 3 meters...

12 ÷ 3 = 4.

It would take 4 hours for the water level to change to 12 meters.

Una compañía de telefonía móvil en expansión ha gestionado durante el trimestre que finaliza ochocientas cincuenta mil llamadas
NISA [10]

Answer:

2,050,000\ daily\ calls

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The question in English is </em></u>

An expanding mobile phone company handled eight hundred and fifty thousand calls a day during the quarter. In the next quarter it expects to reach one million and increase quarterly by the same amount over the next two years. How many daily calls do you expect to handle in two years?

Let

x ----> the number  of quarter

y ---> number of daily calls

we know that

we have the points

(0,850,000) and (1,1,000,000)

Find the slope m

m=(1,000,000-850,000)/(1-0)=150,000\ daily\ calls

The linear equation that represent this situation is

y=150,000x+850,000

How many daily calls do you expect to handle in two years?

In two years there are 8 quarterly

so

For x=8

substitute

y=150,000(8)+850,000=2,050,000\ daily\ calls
