Answer:

width = 11.75 feet  and length is 18.75 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the​ fenced-in area is to be 7 feet greater than the​ width, and the total amount of fencing to be used is 61 feet.

Let w be the width of the rectangle

length is 7 feet greater than the width. so length is w+7

Total amount of fencing is 61 feet. Perimeter = 61 feet

perimeter = 2(length )+ 2(width)61=2(w+7)+2w\\61=2w+14+2w\\61=4w+14

subtract 14 from both sides

4w=47\\w=11.75

width = 11.75 feet  and length is 11.75+7=18.75

5/10 +2/6 = <br> simplify
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

5/10 + 2/6

First find the common denominator by multiplying 5/10 by 3/3

5/10*3/3=15/30

Then to get to that same denominator multiply 2/6 by 5/5

2/6*5/5=10/30

Answer:

15/30+10/30= 25/30

Then divide 25/30 by 5/5

25/30 / 5/5 = 5/6

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer: 376.98192 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to use this equation.

V  = π  *  r²  * h

according to the question we have the value for r and h, if you replace the values into the equation we will get  following product:

note: also keep in mind that value of π is 3.141516

V  = π  *  r²  * h

V  = π  *  (4in)²  * (10in)

V = 502.64256 in³

after we can divide this value in 4 equals parts

then  we get the following equation:

502.64256 in³ / 4 = 125.66064 in³

after that that you can multiply this value by 3 to get the 3 parts of the cylinder vase for example:

125.66064 in³ * 3 = 376.98192 in³

and this result is the volume of water that we have to pour into the vase

Find the equation of the linear function represented by the table below in slope-
vodomira [7]

Answer:

y = x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation of the linear function represented by the table is,

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

where m = slope of the line

And this line passes through the points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)

Slope of the given line = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

From the given table two points lying on the function are (-4, 0) and (1, 5).

Slope 'm' = \frac{5-0}{1+4} = 1

Therefore, equation of the linear function passing through (1, 5) and slope 1 will be,

y - 5 = (x - 1)

y = x + 5 - 1

y = x + 4
