28 is your answer because 11+3=14 and
14*2=28

Can someone please help I tried to attempt it but it wasn’t working for me

b. It depends on the value you assume for the power line voltage. If you assume it is 120 volts, then the ratio to battery voltage is

... (120 volts)/(1.2 volts) = 100

Power line voltage is 100 times as large as battery voltage.

_____

Please be aware of some difficulties in this question.

1. Power line voltage, even if it is "120 volts" varies over time from -170 V to +170 V, so is not really comparable to a battery's voltage, which is steady at 1.2 V.

2. The terminology "times larger" is ambiguous. When we answer the question, "how much larger is a than b," we give the response in terms of the difference a-b. Thus, if a is 2 times larger than b, we might be talking about the difference being twice the value of b. It is preferable to say "times as large as."

Shawn has 186 feet of fencing and plans to make a pig pen that is 15 feet wide. How long will the pig pen be? Remember the formu

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The length of the pig pen for fencing the plans is 28 feet .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The measure of the fencing = 186 feet

The width of the pig pen = w = 15 feet

Let the length of the pig pen = l = x feet

Now, To find the measure of the fencing , we calculate the perimeter of the plans .

So, From perimeter method

I.e Perimeter = 2 × Length + 2 × Width

or, 186 feet = 2 × l + 2 × w

Or, 186 feet = 2 × l + 2 × 15

Or, 186 - 2 × 15 = 2 × l

or, 186 - 30 = 2 × l

Or, 2 × l = 156

∴ l = $\frac{156}{2}$ = 78 feet

So, The length of pig pen = l = 28 feet

Hence The length of the pig pen for fencing the plans is 28 feet . Answer
