We know that the perimeter is the distance around an object. This is also 2 times the length + 2 times the width. We know the width would be X and the length would be 40 feet longer so it is x+40. Now we have 2 (X) + 2 (x+40)=284
Doing the distributive property you would get 2x + 2x + 80=284
add like terms to get 4x+80=284
subtract 80 from both sides to get 4x=204
divide both sides by 4 to get x=51
Width is 51 and width is 40 more than that so length is 91

284=2x+2(x+40)
284=4x+80
204=4x
51=x
dimensions 51 ft by 91ft

Kevin drove 871 miles in 13 hours. At the same rate, how many miles would he drive in 11 hours?
poizon [28]

Answer:

737 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that he drove 871 miles in 13 hours so first you want to do 871 divided by 13 and get 67 which means he drove 67 miles in one hour.  Finally you just have to multiply 67 by 11 and get 737.

Suppose a principal amount of $7500 was invested at an interest rate of 6%. How long did it take to reach $10650?
Oliga [24]

Based on the information how long did it take to reach $10650 is 7years.

Given:

Principal=$7,500

Rate=6%

Amount=$10650

Time=?

Simple Interest(SI)=A-P

=$10650-$7500

=$3150

Time=(100×SI)/(p×r)

T=(100×3150)/(7500×6)

T=315,000/45,000

T=7 years

Inconclusion how long did it take to reach $10650 is 7years.
