Answer:

17.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths:

perimeter = XZ +WZ +WX

The figure shows us WX = WZ, so we can rewrite the formula as ...

perimeter = XZ +2·WZ

Filling in the given values, this becomes ...

50 = 15 + 2·WZ

35 = 2·WZ

35/2 = WZ = 17.5

The length of WZ is 17.5 units.

There are 900 toothpicks in a regular-sized box. If a jumbo box is made by tripling all the dimensions of the regular-sized bo

Colt1911 [192]

When you triple the height of the box, it can hold (900 x 3) = 2,700 pieces.

Then triple its length, and it can hold (2,700 x 3) = 8,100 pieces.

Then triple its width, and it can hold (8,100 x 3) = 24,300 pieces.

When you triple the dimensions of a 3D object, it has 27 times its original volume. (900 x 27) = 24,300 .
