Given:
Area = 21 in²
length = 6 in.
width = ?

The area of a rectangle is computed by multiplying its length by its width.

A = l * w
21 in² = 6 in * w

To find width, divide the area by its length.

21in²/6in = w
3.5 in. = w.

The width is 3.5 inches.

to check:

Area = Length * Width
21 in² = 6 in x 3.5 in
21 in² = 21 in²

We are given:

Area = 21 inches²
Length = 6 inches
Width = x inches

We can use this formula to solve for the width:

Area = Length × Width
21 inches² = 6 inches · x inches
21 inches² = 6x inches²
21 = 6x

Now, divide both sides by 6.

21/6 = 6x/6

21/6 = x

x=\frac{21}{6}=\frac{7\times3}{2\times3} = \frac{7}{2} =\boxed{\bf{ 3.5}}

The width is 3.5 inches.

K<br> M<br> N<br> L <br>Radius:13<br> Diameter:26 cm <br>Circumference:?<br> Area:?
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

Given radius (R) = 13

Diameter =  2R =  26

Circumference =  2πR

=  26π

=  81.681408993335

Area =  πR2

=  169π

=  530.92915845668

Step-by-step explanation:

While a circle, symbolically, represents many different things to many different groups of people including concepts such as eternity, timelessness, and totality, a circle by definition is a simple closed shape. It is a set of all points in a plane that are equidistant from a given point, called the center. It can also be defined as a curve traced by a point where the distance from a given point remains constant as the point moves. The distance between any point of a circle and the center of a circle is called its radius, while the diameter of a circle is defined as the largest distance between any two points on a circle. Essentially, the diameter is twice the radius, as the largest distance between two points on a circle has to be a line segment through the center of a circle. The circumference of a circle can be defined as the distance around the circle, or the length of a circuit along the circle. All of these values are related through the mathematical constant π, or pi, which is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, and is approximately 3.14159. π is an irrational number meaning that it cannot be expressed exactly as a fraction (though it is often approximated as 22/7) and its decimal representation never ends or has a permanent repeating pattern. It is also a transcendental number, meaning that it is not the root of any non-zero, polynomial that has rational coefficients. Interestingly, the proof by Ferdinand von Lindemann in 1880 that π is transcendental finally put an end to the millennia-old quest that began with ancient geometers of "squaring the circle." This involved attempting to construct a square with the same area as a given circle within a finite number of steps, only using a compass and straightedge. While it is now known that this is impossible, and imagining the ardent efforts of flustered ancient geometers attempting the impossible by candlelight might evoke a ludicrous image, it is important to remember that it is thanks to people like these that so many mathematical concepts are well defined today.

At a sale this week, a suit is being sold for $217. This is a 38% discount from the original price. What is the original price?
34kurt

Answer:

List price (original price) = $350

Discount amount ($ saved) = $133

Step-by-step explanation:

The list price is the sale price ($217) divided by the difference of 1 minus the result of the discount (38%) divided by 100.
