Answer:

option B. 18,12,12

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter= 60 units

(consider a rectangle with sides a,b,c & d in order)

a= 18 units (given)

c=18 units (since opp. sides of a rectangle are equal)

now the remaining length= 60-(18+18)

                                          = 60 - 36

                                          = 24

so the sum of the remaining sides, ie, b+d= 24

since b and d are equal (opp.sides of a rect.)

b=d=24/2=12

therefore, b=12; c=18; d=12

i really hope i'm clear...but if i'm not then please do ask...

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a plane shape is the distance around the shape. The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle expressed as

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

The rectangle has for side. Two parallel and opposite sides are equal. There, if the length of one side of the rectangle is 18 units, it means that the length of the opposite side is also 18 units.

Since the perimeter of the rectangle is 60 units, it means that

2(18 + W) = 60

18 + W = 60/2 = 30

W = 30 - 18 = 12

Therefore, the lengths, in units, of the other three sides are 18 , 12 and 12 units

it cost a faimly 305.00 to buy a 11ft by 14 ft rug if the cost is porpotional to the area what will it cost the family to buy a
Nataliya [291]
So what we do first is find out the cost per foot which is 305÷154=1.9805194805194805195
Then we find out the area of the second rug which is 288 feet and multiply that by the cost 1.9805194805194805195. We then get 1.9805194805194805195x288=570.38961038961038961

The height of an object tossed upward with an initial velocity of 120 feet per second is given by the formula h = −16t2 + 120t,
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

7.5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

h =  - 16 {t}^{2}  + 120t \\  \because \:  we \: have \: to \: find \:  the  \:  time  \: required  \:  \\ for \:  the \:  object \:  to \:  return to \:  its  \:  \\ point \:  of  departure. \\  \therefore \: plug \: h = 0 \: in \: the \: given \: euation. \\  \therefore \: 0 =   - 16 {t}^{2}  + 120t \\ \therefore \:16 {t}^{2}  - 120t = 0 \\ \therefore \:8t(2t - 15) = 0 \\ \therefore \:8t = 0 \:  \: or \:  \: (2t - 15) = 0 \\ \therefore \:t =  \frac{0}{8}  \: or \: t =  \frac{15}{2}  \\ \therefore \:t = 0 \: or \: t = 7.5 \\  \because \: t = 0 \: is \: not \: possible \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{  \therefore \: t = 7.5 \: seconds}}

Thus, the time required for the object to return to its point of departure is 7.5 seconds.
