The length of a rectangle is 5 feet more than twice the width. The perimeter is 28 feet. Find the length and width

Mathematics

Answer:

Width = 3 feet

Length = 11 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x feet.

Length = 2x + 5

Perimeter = 28 feet

2 * ( length + width ) = 28

        2 * (2x + 5 + x)  = 28

                      3x + 5  = 28/2 = 14

                              3x = 14 - 5 = 9

                                 x = 9/3

                                  x = 3

Width = 3 feet

Length = 2*3 + 5 = 6 + 5 = 11 feet

Equation: w = 112 + 8t Which input results in an output of 176? What is the output in the ordered pair (4, 144)?
Grace [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 8
  • 144

Step-by-step explanation:

Generally, the single variable on the left side of the equation is the "output" or dependent variable, while any other variables on the right side of the equation are considered to be independent variables, or "input."

So, we assume your first question is asking for the value of t that makes w=176. Put the values in the equation and solve for the unknown.

  w = 112 +8t

  176 = 112 + 8t

  64 = 8t . . . . . . . subtract 112

  8 = t . . . . . . . . . divide by 8

The input for an output of 176 is 8.

__

Ordered pairs are always written as ...

  (input, output)

So, (4, 144) means the output is 144 for an input of 4.

Use estimation to help you choose the correct answer.<br><br> 0.945 x 7.6 =
hoa [83]

Remark

The thing you must not do is write 7.182 as your answer. That is the exact answer found using a calculator.


What to do.

What you should do is multiply two rounded numbers together.

7.6 rounded is 8 roughly


0.945 is almost 1.


Your answer is 8*1 = 8 roughly. This skill is very handy when you are writing a test and you want to see if you've done the question correctly. It is easy to misplace a decimal or put in incorrect digits and this is a quick check on things like that.

Find the value of $B - A$ if the graph of $Ax + By = 3$ passes through the point $(-7,2),$ and is parallel to the graph of $x +
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that since Ax + By = 3 passes through (-7, 2), then if we plug -7 in for x and 2 in for y, the equation is satisfied. So, let's do that:

Ax + By = 3

A * (-7) + B * 2 = 3

-7A + 2B = 3

We also know that this line is parallel to x + 3y = -5, which means their slopes are the same. Let's solve for y in the second equation:

x + 3y = -5

3y = -x - 5

y = (-1/3)x - (5/3)

So, the slope of this line is -1/3, which means the slope of Ax + By = 3 is also -1/3. Let's solve for y in the first equation:

Ax + By = 3

By = -Ax + 3

y = (-A/B)x + 3/B

This means that -A/B = -1/3. So, we have a relationship between A and B:

-A/B = -1/3

A/B = 1/3

B = 3A

Plug 3A in for B into the equation we had where -7A + 2B = 3:

-7A + 2B = 3

-7A + 2 * 3A = 3

-7A + 6A = 3

-A = 3

A = -3

Use this to solve for B:

B = 3A

B = 3 * (-3) = -9

So, B = -9 and A = -3. Then B - A is:

B - A = -9 - (-3) = -9 + 3 = -6

The answer is -6.

How many times can you expect to roll a 4 if you rolls a fair number cube 120 times? (A fair number cube has 6 sides numbered 1
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

20times

Step-by-step explanation:

A fair of die has 6sides.

If 4 appears 'once' out of a 6.

Then, 4 will appear 2times out of 12 i.e

6faces = 1time

12faces = 2times.

But remember that we want to know how many times 4 will appear out of a 120

120faces = x times

Since 6faces = 1time (i.e 4 occur one time in six faces)

cross multiplying:

6 × x = 120

x = 120/6

x = 20times

This means 4 will appear 20times out of a 120
