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.

A yard is 3 times as long as it is wide. 176 feet of fencing is needed to enclose the yard. Find the dimensions of the yard
svet-max [94.6K]
The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its side lengths.

P=2(L+W), we are told that L=3W and P=176 so

2(3W+W)=176

2(4W)=176

8W=176

W=22 ft, since L=3W

L=66 ft

So the yard is 22 feet wide and 66 feet long.

The lengths of the sides of triangle ABC are represented in terms of the variable m, where m > 6.
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: List of the angles from smallest to largest are C, B and A

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram of triangle ABC is shown in the attached photo. Since none of the sides are equal, then it is a scalene triangle.

From the information given,

AB = m – 2

BC = m + 4

AC = m

It means that the longest side is BC, the medium side is AC and the shortest side is AB. Therefore,

The smallest angle is angle C.

The medium angle is angle B.

The largest angle is angle A

Jade can do 65 push ups in 5 minutes. At the same rate, how many push ups can you expect her to do in 7 minutes?
hram777 [196]

Answer:

91

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion, where x is the number of push ups she can do in 7 minutes

\frac{65}{5} = \frac{x}{7}

Cross multiply and solve for x:

5x = 455

x = 91

So, Jade can do 91 push ups in 7 minutes
