We are given length of the rectangle = 24 units.

Width of the rectangle = 11 units.

We know, the formula for periemter of the rectangle as following

P = 2 * length + 2* width.

Let us plug values length = 24 units and width 11 units. We get

P = 2*24 + 2*11

P = 48 +22

P = 70 units.

We got perimeter of 70 units for length 24 units and width 11 units of the rectangle.

So, when its width w is 11 units with the length 24 units, the perimeter P of the rectangle can not be 60 units.

Answer:

-60

It is -60 because if it takes away 6 points for each cone you hit and you hit 10, then it would be -60 times 10, which equals -60.

A company makes wax candles in the shape of a solid sphere. Suppose each candle has a diameter of 15 cm. If

jekas [21]

We have been given that a company makes wax candles in the shape of a solid sphere. Each candle has a diameter of 15 cm. We are asked to find the number of candles that company can make from 70,650 cubic cm of wax.

To solve our given problem, we will divide total volume of wax by volume of one candle.

Volume of each candle will be equal to volume of sphere.

$V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ , where r represents radius of sphere.

We know that radius is half the diameter, so radius of each candle will be $\frac{15}{2}=7.5$ cm.

$\text{Volume of one candle}=\frac{4}{3}\cdot 3.14\cdot (7.5\text{ cm})^3$

$\text{Volume of one candle}=\frac{4}{3}\cdot 3.14\cdot 421.875\text{ cm}^3$

$\text{Volume of one candle}=1766.25\text{ cm}^3$

Now we will divide 70,650 cubic cm of wax by volume of one candle.

$\text{Number of candles}=\frac{70,650\text{ cm}^3}{1766.25\text{ cm}^3}$

$\text{Number of candles}=\frac{70,650}{1766.25}$

$\text{Number of candles}=40$

Therefore, 40 candles can be made from 70,650 cubic cm of wax.

How do I work this out??please help

serg [7]

The answer is x=5 because 24-3-5=16 so you have to get those 2 sides to equal 16....2*5=10+1=11 then add 5 and you get 16
