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.

How many solutions for linear equation 3x + 5y = 25 can be found so that −20 < y < 10, and x is an integer?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

3x = 25 - 5y

-100 < 5y < 50

-50 < -5y < 100

-25 < 25 - 5y < 125

-8.333 < x < 41.667

41+8+1 = 50

A company manufactures skateboards. Each skateboard requires 1 6/7 hours of labor to assemble and 2 1/2 hours of labor to finish
Assoli18 [71]

Answer: The total cost will be $156.85.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Time taken by labor to assemble the each skateboard is given by

1\frac{6}{7}\ hours\\\\=\frac{13}{7}\ hours

Time taken by labor to finish and stain each skateboard is given by

2\frac{1}{2}\ hours\\\\=\frac{5}{2}\ hours

Cost of labour to the company per hour = $36.00

According to question,

We will use "Distributive Property":

a\times (b+c)=a\times b+a\times c

36(\frac{13}{7}+\frac{5}{2})\\\\=36\times \frac{13}{7}+36\times \frac{5}{2}\\\\=\frac{468}{7}+18\times 5\\\\=\frac{468}{7}+90\\\\=\frac{468+630}{7}\\\\=\frac{1098}{7}\\\\=\$156.85

Hence, the total cost will be $156.85.
