Answer:

Length = 11

Width = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the length is x and the width is x - 5 since it is 5 less than the length.

The equation to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2l

We will plug in the values and solve

2(x-5) + 2(x) = 34

2x - 10 + 2x = 34

4x - 10 = 34

4x = 44

x = 11

Since the length is simply x, we know that it is 11. We subtract 5 to find the width.

11 - 5 = 6.

The width is 6.

Nimisha wants to draw a wheel like the one shown. Each shaded part of the wheel should be one-third of each unshaded part. What
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Each shade has a 22.5 degree angle from the middle

Each unshaded has a 67.5 degree angle from the middle.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by making each unshaded part equal to x and each shaded part equal 1/3x it is a circle so it has to equal 360 so you end up with:

x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x + x + 1/3x = 360

Combine Like terms:

16/3x = 360

Multiply both sides by the opposite:

(3/16) (16/3x) = (360) (3/16)

x=135/2 or x=67.5

Then you can plug 67.5 in for x:

1/3x ---> 1/3(67.5) = 22.5
