Answer:

w =4 ft and l =10 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width

l = 2w+2

A = l*w

A = (2w+2)(w)

 40  = (2w+2) w

Distribute

40 = 2w^2 +2w

Subtract 40

0 = 2w^2 +2w - 40

Dividing each side by 2

0 = w^2 +w -20

Factor

0 = (w+5) (w-4)

Using the zero product property

w+5 =0     w-4=0

w= -5  w=4

Since we cant have a negative length

w=4

l = 2w+2 = 2(4)+2 = 8+2 =10

Firstly, solve the effective annual interest (ieff) with the equation,
 
                          ieff = (1 + i/m)^m -1

where i is the interest rate and m is the number of times the interest is compounded in a year. In this problem, m is 12

Substituting the values, 
                            ieff = (1 + 0.034/12)^12 - 1 =0.03453

To solve for the future (F) amount of the present investment (P), 
                                       
                                        F = P x (1 + ieff)^n

where n is number of years.
 
                                        F = ($742) x (1 + 0.03453)^15

Thus, the answer is $1234.76.

Answer: 76.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Interior angles of a triangle = 180 degrees so then you do 180-27 to get 153. Then 153 divided by 2 = 76.5
