The rectangle problem:
First, create some variables.
w = width
l = length
Then you know that the length is 3 times the width, so
l = 3w
The equation for perimeter is
P = 2(l+w)
Now you use substitution, substituting the 3w for l because you found that earlier.
P = 2((3w) + w)
And simplify.
P = 2(4w)
P = 8w
And you know P = 30 because they told you that.
30 = 8w
w = 15/4 inches, or 3.75 inches
Now substitute that value back into that first equation,
l = 3w
l = 3(15/4)
l = 45/4 inches, or 11.25 inches.
The dimensions are 11.25in for length and 3.75in for width.

The volleyball problem:
100 minutes of stretching and scrimmaging combined, and you know 10 have to be stretching, so 90 is scrimmaging.
s = scrimmaging
T = total time
s = 2/3T (they gave you this)
90 = 2/3T
T = (90*3)/2
T = 270/2
T = 135 minutes, or 2 hours and 15 minutes.
Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we now that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form
or
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line <u><em>and the line passes through the origin</em></u>
In this problem we have

This is the equation of the line in slope intercept form
where

The given equation not represent a proportional relationship, because the line not pass through the origin
In a proportional relationship the value of b (y-intercept) is equal to zero
Answer:
4 1/2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
1 practice = 2 1/4 hours
2 practices = 4 1/2 hours
Convert the percent into a decimal by moving the decimal point 2 places to the left:
7.05% = 0.0705
Now multiply $225.00 by the decimal:
225.00 x 0.0705 = 15.8625 = $15.86
The answer might be 2,640 because I multiplied 10 and 264
