180 in² - the area

width × lenght - the area

length : width = 5 : 4 therefore length = 5x and width = 4x

(x - some unit of length)

The equation:

(5x)(4x) = 180

20x² = 180     <em>divide both sides by 20</em>

x² = 9 → x = √9 → x = 3 in.

The length = 5x, therefore your answer is:

<h3>5x = 5(3 in) = 15in</h3>

The width of a rectangular swimming pool is 12 meters less than the length, and the perimeter is 72 meters. Find its dimensions
Elis [28]

Answer:

The dimensions are 24 and 12 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

W + L + W + L = 72   perimeter

(L-12) + L + (L-12) + L = 72

4L - 24 = 72

4L = 72 + 24 = 96  ====>  L = 96%2F4 = 24.

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS GEOMETRY PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Leno4ka [110]
The question is asking for the cubic feet inside the prism, which means it wants the volume.

The volume equation is:
Volume= length x width x height

The issue is: the measurements of the prism are given to us in inches, while the problem asks for feet. We just need to convert each measurement, by dividing each by 12, since there are 12 inches per foot.
40 inches/12=3.33 feet
45 inches/12=3.75 feet
30 inches/12=2.5 feet

Now, we just have to plug in the numbers we found to solve for the volume.
V=(3.33 feet)(3.75 feet)(2.5 feet)
V=31.22 cubic feet
