Answer:
W = 2 cm
L = 5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangle is a four sided shape with 4 perpendicular angles. It has two pairs of parallel sides which are equal in distance: width and length. Its area, the amount of space inside it, can be found using the formula A = l*w. If the area is 10 cm² and the length is "3 cm less than 4 times the width" or 4w - 3, you can substitute and solve for w.
A = l*w
10 = (4w - 3)(w)
10 = 4w² - 3w
Subtract 10 from both sides to make the equation equal to 0. Then solve the quadratic by quadratic formula.
4w² - 3w - 10 = 0
Substitute a = 4, b = -3 and c = -10.
There are two possible solutions which can be found.
3 + 13 / 8 = 16/ 8 = 2
3 - 13 / 8 = -10/8 = -5/4
Since w is a side length or distance, it must be positive so w = 2 cm.
If the width is 2 cm then the length is 4(2) - 3 = 8 - 3 = 5 cm.
Answer:
- cylinder — 90π in³
- pyramid — 37 1/3 in³
- cone — 12.5π in³
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a cylinder is given by ...
V = Bh . . . . . where B is the base area and h is the height
The volume of a pyramid or cone is given by ...
V = (1/3)Bh . . . . . where B is the base area and h is the height
The area of a square of side length s is ...
A = s²
The area of a circle of radius r is ...
A = πr²
___
Using these formulas, the volumes of these objects are ...
cylinder: (9π in²)(10 in) = 90π in³
square pyramid: (1/3)(4 in)²(7 in) = 37 1/3 in³
cone: (1/3)(π(2.5 in)²)(6 in) = 12.5π in³ . . . . slightly larger than the pyramid
Answer:
3.1818... months
Step-by-step explanation:
x = months
50 + 60x = 225 + 5x
55x = 175
x = 3.1818...
Answer:
There are 60 activity booklets in the media lab.
Step-by-step explanation:
- 30/2 = 15
Why divide those numbers?
For every 2 computers in a lab with 30 computers means you have to divide
- 15x4 = 60
Why multiply those numbers?
4 activity booklets for every 2 computers in a lab of 30 computers, so multiply
I hope this helps.
