The length of a rectangle is 5 m longer than its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 46 m , find its area.

1 answer:

3 0

The sides of the rectangla are its length and width. We know the length is 5m longer than the width. Since we dont know the width, we can say that the width is x and the length is x+5.

The perimeter, as we know, is equal to the sum of all sides. We have two “length” sides and two “width” sides, so our equation is:

x + x + x+5 + x+5 = 46
Lets add all of this:
4x + 10 = 46
4x = 46-10
4x = 36
x = 36/4
x = 9

So our width is 9m and the length is 14m.

The area of a rectangle is width times length, so:
9*14=126m^2.

5 1/3 + (-4 1/6)+ (-2 1/2)

nlexa [21]

Answer:

$-\frac{4}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$5\frac{1}{3}+(-4\frac{1}{6})+(-2\frac{1}{2})$

We have to find the value of given expression

$\frac{5(3)+1}{3}-(\frac{4(6)+1}{6})-(\frac{2(2)+1}{2})$

$=\frac{15+1}{3}-\frac{24+1}{6}-\frac{4+1}{2}$

$=\frac{16}{3}-\frac{25}{6}-\frac{5}{2}$

LCM(2,3,6)=6

$=\frac{32-25-15}{6}$

$=\frac{32-40}{6}$

$=\frac{-8}{6}$

$=-\frac{4}{3}$

Factor completely: 45x3 + 123x + 104x + 28

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

45x^3 + 123x^2 + 104x + 28

=(45x^3 + 60x^2 + 20x) + (63x^2 + 84x + 28)

=5x(9x^2 + 12x + 4) + 7(9x^2 + 12x + 4)

=(5x + 7)(9x^2 + 12x + 4)

=(5x + 7)(3x + 2)^2

=> Option D is correct

Hope this helps!

500 is ten times larger than 50

vlada-n [284]

This is true. When ever you multiply by 10, you add a zero on, since 50x10=50 plus another zero it's 500. Whenever you divide by 10, you take a way a zero of move the decimal, so 500/10=50.
