Answer: The length is 13 inches and the width is 11 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the rectangle.

Let W represent the width of the rectangle.

The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = LW

The area of the rectangle is 143 square inches. This means that

LW = 143 - - - - - - - - - - - - --1

The rectangle's length is 2 in more than its width. This means that

L = W + 2

Substituting L = W + 2 into equation 1, it becomes

W(W + 2) = 143

W² + 2W - 143 = 0

W² + 13W - 11W - 143 = 0

W(W + 13) - 11(W + 13) = 0

W + 13 = 0 or W - 11 = 0

W = - 13 or W = 11

Since the width cannot be negative, it means that W = 11

L = W + 2 = 11 + 2

L = 13

Answer:

i believe the answer is 142.42 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

what i did was 'separate' the cone and cylinder-

so the volume of cylinder formula is-

v=πr²h

and the volume for a cone is-

v=πr²h/3

now let us fill in the formulas with the information that we have-

v=π*2²*10=125.66

v=π*2²*4=16.76

now let us add the sums together-

125.66+16.76=142.42 in²

good luck :)

i hope this helps

**please let me know if this is incorrect/not what you're looking for or both**

have a nice day!

Use the law of sines to find the value of w.
Lunna [17]

Option B: 4.0 cm is the value of w

Explanation:

It is given that \angle W= 39, \angle U=31, VW=3.3 and UV=w

Using the law of sines, we have,

\frac{sin U}{3.3} =\frac{sin W}{w}

Substituting the values, we have,

\frac{\sin 31}{3.3}=\frac{\sin 39}{w}

Cross multiplying, we get,

(sin31) w=3.3( \sin 39)

Simplifying, we have,

0.515w=2.077

Dividing both sides by 0.515, we have,

w=4.0

Thus, the value of w is 4.0 cm

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
