Answer:

length=16feet  width=12feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This may not be the best way, i just stumbled upon the answer using this.

I knew 14*14=196, which is relatively close to 192.

Then, I took away 2 from one of the 14s and added it to the other 14.

14-2=12    14+2=16

Apparently, 16*12 is 192, so that's the answer.

Chris used 45 meters of fencing to enclose a circular garden. What is the approximate radius of the garden,rounded to the neares
kobusy [5.1K]
The length of the fencing corresponds to the length of the perimeter of the garden:
p=45 m
We also know that the perimeter of a circle is given by:
p=2 \pi r
where r is the radius of the circle.

Putting together the two equations, we have
2 \pi r = 45
from which we can find r, the radius of the garden:
r= \frac{45}{2 \pi}= \frac{45}{2 \cdot 3.14}=7.17 m

If 10% of x is 20, what is 23% of x?<br><br> 33<br><br> 46<br><br> 200<br><br> 230
Dahasolnce [82]
Since decimal form of 10% is 0.1 and 10% of x is 20,
0.1x = 20
x = 200
Since x = 200, 23% of x is:
(0.23)(200) = 46

The correct answer is 46.
