P = 2l + 2w
l = 2w
48 = 2(2w) + 2w
48 = 4w + 2w
48 = 6w
8 = w
l = 2w
l = 2(8)
l = 16
48 = 2(16) + 2(8)
48 = 32 + 16
48 = 48
Answer:
length = 16
width = 8
1/4 = 2/8. Remember that. This means that 1/8 is equal to half of a month. It there is 5/8, you can add a half month for every eights. In this case, it will take 2 and a half months
Easy Way:<span>If your hair were to grow 1/4 inches a month, it would also grow 2/8 inches a month, since 1/4 = 2/8. How long with it take 1/8 (0.5/4)inches to grow? It would take a half of a month for your hair to grow 1/8 inches.
</span><span>Now that we know 1/8 inches grows in a half of a month, we add a half of a month for every eigths. Since we are trying to figure out how long it would take for it to grow 5/8 inches, we add 5 half months to get the answer of 2 and a half months. Kind of confusing, but that is the best way I can describe it.</span>
Answer:
Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person is 22 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: A lifeguard sees a person in distress.The eye level of the lifeguard is 15 feet above the ground. Angle of depression is 34°.
To find: Horizontal distance between lifeguard and the person.
Solution : If we draw a triangle then tan∅ = 
Here base is the horizontal distance.
Now we put the values in the formula.
tan 34° = 
Or Base = 
= 
So the answer is 22 feet.
