Answer:

The length of the fence is 22.5ft and the width of the fence is 7.5ft.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we will turn this question into an equation.

The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle is 2l + 2w = perimeter.

In the question we were given the perimeter so we can go ahead and plug this in.

2l + 2w = 60

In the question we are also told that the fence is 3 times as long as it is wide. This means that 1l = 3w. We can now subsitute l for 3w so that we only have one variable.

2(3w) + 2w = 60

Now we can simply use algebra to solve for w.

6w + 2w = 60

8w = 60

w = 7.5

Now that we know the value of w we can find the value of l since we know 1l = 3w.

l = 3w

l = 3(7.5)

l = 22.5

The length of the fence is 22.5ft and the width of the fence is 7.5ft.

(A)     (0.20 mole) x (32 g / 1 mole) = 6.4 grams O2
(B)     (0.75 mole) x (62 g / 1 mole) = 46.5 grams H2CO3
(C)     (3.42 moles) x (28 g / 1 mole) = 95.7 grams CO
(D)     (4.1 moles) x (29.88 g / 1 mole) = 122.508 g Li2O

Is it possible to prove that something is real or true of you can’t directly observe it? If no, why not? If yes, how would you d
dangina [55]

Answer:

I don't know if you can directly prove it with evidence if you haven't observed it but you can maybe take an educated guess by the aftermath of it?

For example, you see a burnt log. At this time, people don't know what fire is. After we study the log, we could see that it takes extreme temperature in order to burn the log and that would help people see that there is a force like fire that can cause this. In a way, finding out that extreme temperatures burns stuff is another step closer to the discovery and proof of fire

I hope that makes sense

The radius of the smaller circle is 8 feet. The distance from the rim of the inner circle to the rim of the outer circle is 3 fe
postnew [5]

Answer:

178.98 sq. feet

Explanation:

The path and the garden has been shown in the figure below. The green area is the garden and the area in brown is the path.

It has been given that,

Radius of garden = 8 feet

So, the area of garden = 3.14 × 8 × 8 = 200.96 sq. feet

The total radius of the land including garden and path = 8 + 3 = 11 feet

So, the total are of land including garden and path = 3.14 × 11 × 11 = 379.94 sq. feet

So, the area of path = Total area of the land - area of garden

Area of path = 379.94 - 200.96 = 178.98 sq. feet
