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

Answer:

you might’ve already answered this but it’s 65

Step-by-step explanation:

the two sides in a triangle have to be congruent so if one angle is 65, the other has to be 65 too :)

14. The area of 10 square plots is 160 ares. Find the length in metres of the side of each plot (3mks)​
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 are = 100 m²

Assuming the ten squares are congruent, the area of each square is 160/10 = 16 are

16 are × 100 m²/are = 1600 m²

each side is √1600 = 40 m

What is the quotient of 15,048 and 76​
vitfil [10]

Answer:

If you mean 15,048 ÷ 76, the quotient is 198.

If you mean 76 ÷ 15,048, the answer is 0.00505050505. But I doubt that’s what you mean.

How many 4 digit multiples can not be divided by 5
Advocard [28]

Answer:

1800

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve this question by Modular Airthmatic.

Let the lowest 4 digit number be X.

X= 1 (mod 5)

X =2 (mod 5)

X=3 (mod 5)

X =4 (mod 5)

X=1+5 t where t is any integer.

1+5 t=2 (mod 5)

5 t=1 (mod 5 )

5 is the Modular Inverse of modulo 5

t=1 (mod 5)

t =1+5 u : u= any integer.

X becomes 1+ 5 (1+5u )=6+25 u

6+25u =3 (mod 5)

25 u= -3 (mod 5)=2 (mod 5)

25 is Modular Inverse of Modulo 5

u=2 (mod 5)

u =2+5 v : v= any integer.

X becomes 6 +25 (2+5 v)=56+125 v .

56 +125 v=4 (mod 5)

125 v=-52 (mod 5)=3 (mod 5)

125 is Modular Inverse of modulo 5

v = 3 (mod 5)

v =3 +5 w where w is any integer.

For lowest 4 digit number, take

w=200

X=1003 : Lowest 4 digit number.

Take w=201

X=208 : Next number.

For 4 digit largest number, take

w=1995

X= 9978 : Largest number.

No. of Numbers =(1995 - 200 )+1=1800 □Ans.

Seth has one less than twice the number of compact discs (CDs) that Jason has. Raoul has 53 more CDs than Jason. If Seth gives J
ELEN [110]
S = 2J - 1
R = J + 53
S - 25 = J + 25...S = J + 50

2J - 1 = J + 50
2J - J = 50 + 1
J = 51 <===Jason has 51 CD's

R = J + 53
R = 51 + 53
R = 104 <===Raoul has 104 CD's

S = 2J - 51
S = 2(51) - 1
S = 102 - 1
S = 101 <===Seth has 101 CD's
