Answer.....15ft by 12ft

Explanation:

Area = Length × Width

180 = LW....make W the subject of formula

;W = 180/L

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

54 = 2L + 2(180/L)...sub W with the formula above...

then simplify the equation and obtain...

2L^2 - 27L + 180 = 0....then solve using the quadratic formula....then obtain..

;L = 15ft....after obtaining L = 15...then substitute into the W = 180/L equation...

where W = 180/15 = 12ft

there you have...Length = 15ft and Width = 12ft

The amount earned in dollars for recycling p pounds of copper is 2p. How much do you earn for recycling 28 pounds of copper
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

56 dollars are earned for recycling 28 pounds of copper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantity of copper recycled = p pounds

Amount earned in dollars for recycling p pounds of copper = 2p

Also,

Quantity of copper recycled = 28 pounds

Therefore,

Amount earned in dollars for recycling 28 pounds of copper = 2(28)=56 dollars

So,

56 dollars are earned for recycling 28 pounds of copper.

The volumes of two similar figures are given. The surface area of the smaller figure is given. find the surface area of the larg
Nutka1998 [239]

Step-by-step explanation:

the surface area of a figure is always the result of a combination of multiplication(s) of 2 dimensions (side lengths).

and the volume of 3 dimensions (side lengths).

"similar figures" means that they share the same angles. and that there is one scaling factor that applies to all sides (and all other lines like heights).

so, no matter what sides are used to calculate the surface areas and the volumes, it is the same scaling factor used for each of them.

in a multiplication of 2 sides (for the area) the scaling factor is therefore applied twice and hence squared, in a multiplication of 3 sides it is applied 3 times and therefore cubed.

let's call the scaling factor f.

1472 × f³ = 2875

and then

928 × f² = large S.A.

let's use the first to get f :

1472 × f³ = 2875

f³ = 2875 / 1472 = (125 × 23) / (64 × 23) = 125/64

f = 5/4

f² = (5/4)² = 5²/4² = 25/16

large S.A. = 928 × 25/16 = 58 × 25 = 1450 m²
