A rectangular folder has a perimeter of 30 inches and an area of 54 square inches. What are the dimensions of the folder?

1 answer:

3 0

We know, perimeter = 2(l + w)
So, 2(l + w) = 30
2l + 2w = 30
Divide the equation 2,
l + w = 15

Now, Area = l * w
l * w = 54

Substitute the value of l from previous equation,
(15-w) * w = 54
15w - w² = 54
w² - 15w + 54 = 0
w² - 6w - 9w + 54 = 0
w(w - 6) -9(w - 6) = 0
(w-6)(w-9) = 0
w = 6 or 9

In short, Your Dimensions would be: 6 × 9 in

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The expression for the total cost is x = 19.99 + 0.99n .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the total cost be x.

As given

Sophia pays $19.99 membership fee for an online music store.

If sophia purchases n songs for $0.99 each .

Than the expression becomes

Total cost = Membership fee + Cost of n songs

x = 19.99 + 0.99n

Answer:

B) $45\pi cm^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$A=\frac{\pi r^{2}(central. Angle) }{360} =\frac{\pi (9)^{2}(200) }{360} =\frac{\pi (81)(200)}{360}=45\pi cm^{2}$

The reflection is happening over the x axis (horizontal axis)

Any y coordinate that is positive turns negative, and vice versa

For example: (1,2) ---> (1,-2)

In general, the rule is (x,y) ---> (x,-y)

So the answer is choice C
