The perimeter of a rectangle must be less than 170170 feet. If the length is known to be 4444 feet, find the range of possible w
katrin [286]

Answer:

w \in (0,41)

where w is width of rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

The perimeter of a rectangle must be less than 170 feet.

Length of rectangle = 44 feet

Perimeter of rectangle =

2\times (\text{Length + Width})

Let w be the width of rectangle.

According to the question,

P < 170\\2(44 + w)

Thus, the width of triangle should be less than 41. Since w cannot take negative values, we can express value of w in interval notation as,

w \in (0,41)

When Cullen cleaned behind his dresser, he found 73 cents, all in nickels and pennies. There were 25 coins. How many were nickel
Georgia [21]
Let n = number of nickels, and p = number of pennies.
The number of coins is 25, so we get this equation.
n + p = 25

The value of the coins is 0.05 per nickel, and 0.01 per penny.
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73

Now you have a system of equations.

n + p = 25
0.05n + 0.01p = 0.73

Solve the first equation for n:
n = 25 - p

Now substitute into the second equation.

0.05(25 - p) + 0.01p = 0.73

1.25 - 0.05p + 0.01p = 0.73

-0.04p = -0.52

p = 13

There were 13 pennies.
Now we substitute 13 for p in n + p = 25 to find out the number of nickels.

n + 13 = 25
n = 12

There are 13 pennies and 12 nickels.

Check: 13 pennies and 12 nickels does total 25 coins.
13 * 0.01 + 12 * 0.05 = 0.13 + 0.60 = 0.73
The value is $0.73.
Our answer is correct.
