Answer:

length = 24, width = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the length and width of the first rectangle w + 15 and w respectively. This means that the length and width of the second rectangle is (w + 15) - 2 and w + 5 respectively. Since the perimeter of the second rectangle is 72, we can write:

2 * ((w + 15) - 2 + w + 5) = 72 because perimeter = 2 * (length + width)

(w + 15) - 2 + w + 5 = 36 (Divide by 2)

2w + 18 = 36 (Combine like terms)

2w = 18 (Subtract 18)

w = 9 (Divide by 2)

This means that the length and width are 24 and 9.

Answer:

<h3>20.6 ft</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

You must use the trigonometric function.

In this case, it will be tangent.

tangent=\dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}

We have

\theta=38^o,\ opposite=r,\ adjacent=20

\tan38^\approx0.7813

Substitute:

\tan38^o=\dfrac{r}{20}

\dfrac{r}{20}=0.7813              <em>multiply both sides by 20</em>

r=15.626

Tree height is r + 5.

Therefore

r+5=15.626+5=20.626\approx20.6\ ft

Derek rolls a die many times and records the number of times he rolls a three. Arrange the following situations in order from th
mrs_skeptik [129]

The sentence sequence is "BDAC".

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • Derek is rolling a die many times and he is recording when he rolls a dice of three. So we have to identify from largest to smallest.
  • The first largest is 30 times. Because of 3*10=30, so he rolls three ten times. So the first option is B.
  • The second largest is 20 times. Derek rolled dice three-six times because of 3*6=18. So the second option is D.
  • The third-largest is 10 times. In this, he rolls three times. Because of 3*3=9. So the option is A.
  • The final option is C. Derek rolls five times. 3*1=3. In this, he rolled only one time. So the sequence is BDAC.
