To find area, we use this equation:
L×W=A
We already know what the Area is so let's fill it in.
L×W=256
The question says that the width is 48 cm shorter than 4 times its length.
W=4L-48
We can put that equation in for width.
(4l-48)l=256 ;let's multiply.
4l²-48l=256
To find this, you can use a graph as shown below.
So, the rectangle's length is 16 cm.

If we let x represent the length, then the width is (4x-48), and the area is ...
  x(4x-48) = 256

This is neatly solved graphically to find x = 16. (x=-4 is an extraneous solution)

The rectangle's length is 16 cm.

podryga [215]

Answer:

V=235.1\ cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Volume of a Cone</u>

The volume of a right circular cone with height h and a base radius r is:

\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h

The height of the given cone is h=4.1 cm and its diameter is d=14.8 cm. Since the radius is half the diameter, r=7.4 cm.

Calculate the volume:

\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}\pi\cdot 7.4^2\cdot 4.1

\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}\pi\cdot 54.76\cdot 4.1

\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}\pi\cdot 224.516

\boxed{V=235.1\ cm^3}

Find the missing side of each triangle. Leave your answers in simplest radical form.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

x = 2\sqrt{34}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras identity in the right triangle

x² = 10² + 6² = 100 + 36 = 136 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{136} = \sqrt{4(34)} = 2\sqrt{34}
