Answer:

Width = 2 feet

Length = 6 feet

Explanation:

Variables:

Perimeter = p

Length = l

Width = w

Equation:

2w + 2l = p

It is given that:

l = 3w

and

p = 16 feet

With this information, we can rewrite the equation (substitute)

2w + 2(3w) = 16

Simplify

2w + 6w = 16

Add

8w = 16

Divide both sides of the equation by 8

Width = 2 feet

Length = 3(w) = 3(2) = 6 feet

Hope this helps :)

  • Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>

y = -3x - 2

5x + 2y = 15

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

<em>Substitution</em>

  1. Substitute in <em>y</em>:                     5x + 2(-3x - 2) = 15
  2. Distribute 2:                          5x - 6x - 4 = 15
  3. Combine like terms:            -x - 4 = 15
  4. Isolate <em>x</em> term:                      -x = 19
  5. Isolate <em>x</em>:                               x = -19

<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>

  1. Define original equation:                    y = -3x - 2
  2. Substitute in <em>x</em>:                                     y = -3(-19) - 2
  3. Multiply:                                                y = 57 - 2
  4. Subtract:                                               y = 55

CUALES SON LOS GRADOS PARA HACER UNA GRAFICA DE PASTEL, CON LOS SIGUIENTES PORCENTAJES( 20%,50%,10%)
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

Lo primero que debemos saber, es que la gráfica de pastel nos permite dividir a una población, la cual sería el 100%, en porcentajes menores que representan algo.

En este caso tenemos los porcentajes 20%, 50%, 10%  (notar que no suman 100%, entonces nos falta algún porcentaje)

Bueno, como sabemos el gráfico (el cual es un círculo) representa el 100%.

Y en un círculo, tenemos un ángulo de 360°

Entonces comenzamos con la equivalencia:

360° = 100%

Entonces, ¿a que grado corresponde el 50%? Planteamos la ecuación:

x = 50%

Si tomamos el cociente entre las ecuaciones:

x = 50% y  360° = 100%

obtenemos:

x/360° = 50%/100%

resolviendo para x, obtenemos:

x = (50%/100%)*360° = 0.5*360° = 180°

Para los otros porcentajes hacemos lo mismo.

Para el de 20% tenemos:

y = 20%

planteamos la ecuación:

y/360° = 20%/100%

y = 0.2*360° = 72°

Finalmente, para el de 10% tendremos:

z = 10%

planteando la ecuación como antes:

z/360° = 10%/100%

z = 0.1*360 = 36°

Asi, hemos encontrado los grados correspondientes para cada porcentaje.
