Answer:

6 meters by 9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step 1: Formula for perimeter of rectangle</em></u>

Rectangle's perimeter = 2 (length) + 2 (width)

Rectangle's perimeter = 2 (length + width)

<u><em>Step 2: Find the length and width in terms of x</em></u>

Width = x

Length = 1.5 times width

Length = 1.5x

<u><em>Step 3: Find x</em></u>

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

30 = 2 (1.5x + x)

30/2 = 2.5x

15/2.5 = x

x = 6

<u><em>Step 4: Find the length and width</em></u>

Width = x = 6 meters

Length = 1.5x = 1.5(6) = 9 meters

Therefore, the dimensions of the room are 6 meters and 9 meters.

This question is too hard
OLga [1]

Answer:

27 children

Step-by-step explanation:

For every 9 children, there are 4 adults. Those numbers added together equal 13. Now, if we divide the total number of adults and children by 13, we will get the number of how many groups there are of 9 kids and 4 adults.

39 / 13 = 3

There are 3 groups of 9 kids and 4 adults, which means to find the total number of children, we have to multiply 3 by 9.

3 * 9 = 27

Therefore, there are 27 children total. I know this was probably really confusing, but I hope it helped in some way! Have a lovely day!! :)

Steve opens a bank account with a simple annual interest rate of 5%. After four years, how much interest will Steve earn on an i
Marysya12 [62]

Steve will earn $160 interest after four years ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the simple interest is I = Prt, where

  • P is the initial deposit
  • r is the annual rate in decimal
  • t is the time of investment

∵ Steve opens a bank account with a simple annual interest rate of 5%

∴ r = 5% = 5 ÷ 100 = 0.05

∵ His initial deposit is $800

∵ He will put the money for four years

∴ t = 4

- Substitute all these values in the formula above

∵ I = 800(0.05)(4)

∴ I = 160

Steve will earn $160 interest after four years
