Answer:

= 200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

200%

Step-by-step explanation:

Length and breadth is in the ratio 2:3

Then, let length = 2x and breadth = 3x

Area of rectangle = l×b = 2x×3x = 6

Now if breadth is increased by 50% ,

our new breadth will be = 3x + 50%(3x)

                                       = 4.5x

And length is increased by same number of units, length = 2x+ 2x = 4x

New area = l×b = 4.5x × 4x

                        = 18

Percentage change in area = ×1000

                                           = ×100

                                           = 200%

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L & B be the original length & width of the rectangle then its area is

A0=LB

Now, the length & width both are increased by 50 % then new length & width become 1.5L & 1.5B then new area of rectangle

A1=1.5L×1.5B=2.25LB

Now, the percentage increase in the area of rectangle

=A1−A0A0×100 %

=2.25LB−LBLB×100 %

=125 %

Find the area of the composite figure
Veronika [31]

Look at the picture.

The area of the trapezoid:

A_T=\dfrac{1}{2}(15+7+5)\cdot4=27\cdot2=54\ in^2

The area of the rectangle:

A_R=5\cdot6=30\ in^2

The area of figure:

A=A_T+A_R\to A=54+30=84\ in^2

In ΔVWX, v = 64 cm, w = 18 cm and x=63 cm. Find the measure of ∠W to the nearest degree.
wariber [46]

Answer:

∠W = 16.3°

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔVWX, v = 64 cm, w = 18 cm and x=63 cm. Find the measure of ∠W to the nearest degree.

From that above question, we are given 3 sides and we are to find the angle of one of the sides.

We solve using Cosine rule.

∠W = arc cos (v² + x²﹣w²/2vx)

∠W = arc cos (64² + 63² - 18² /2 × 64 × 63)

∠W = arc cos (0.9599454365)

∠W = 16.27137°

∠W = 16.3°

A bottle of maple syrup in Wayne’s freezer needs to be warmed for breakfast. Sitting on the kitchen counter, the bottle temperat
aliya0001 [1]

It is given that the bottle temperature begins at the freezer temperature of –16° C. Thus, the initial temperature is –16° C.

Now, sitting on the kitchen counter, the bottle temperature will go up a steady 9.6° C every hour. We need to know how many hours will it take to reach 20° C.

Let us assume that it will take "x" hours to reach the required temperature. Then the equation that will guide this system will be a linear one as shown below:

-16+9.6x=20

Adding 16 to both sides we get:

9.6x=20+16=36

Dividing both sides by 9.6 we get:

x=\frac{36}{9.6}=3.75 hours

Thus it will take 3.75 hours (or 3 hours 45 minutes) for the bottle of maple syrup to reach a temperature of 20^{\circ} celsius.

What is the arithmetic mean of the following numbers?<br> 8, 1, 2, 6, 1, 48, 1, 2, 6, 1, 4
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

7.3 if 48 is a number (I'm not sure if you meant 4,8 or 48)

4 if you meant 48 to be separate

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean means average so you add up all the numbers then divide the answer by how many numbers there are, so 44/11=4
