Area is how many unit squares can fit in a figure. For example, if you imagine a grid with many squares, one square would be 1 square unit. Two squares would be 2 square units. If you have a rectangle with 27 squares that would be 27 square units.
But it would be really hard and time-consuming to count all 27 of those squares. So you can use a formula. Length * width = area
Length of 9 times width of 3 = 27 square units.

Now different shapes/figures have different formulas for area. In a triangle, the formula is (1/2)*base*height, or (base*height)/2. This is because a triangle is half of a rectangle, so you multiply the base and height and divide all that by 2.

Mark wants to fence 4 rectangular gardens, each with a length of 9 1/4 feet and a width of 4 1/2feet. What is the length of fenc
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

110 ft  

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of fencing is four times the perimeter of one garden.

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is  

P = 2l + 2w

The total perimeter for all four rectangles is

P = 4× (2l + 2w) = 8l + 8w

Data:

 l = 9¼ ft

w = 4½ ft

Calculation:

P = 8l + 8w = 8×9¼ + 8×4½ = 72⁸/₄ + 32⁸/₂ =(72 + 2) + (32 + 4) = 74 + 36 = 110 ft

The total length of fencing is 110 ft.

LMNP is a rectangle. Find the value of x and the length of each diagonal. LN =7x+9 and MP=9x-9
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rectangle are congruent, thus

MP = LN , substitute values

9x - 9 = 7x + 9 ( subtract 7x from both sides )

2x - 9 = 9 ( add 9 to both sides )

2x = 18 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 9

LN = 7x + 9 = (7 × 9) + 9 = 63 + 9 = 72

MP = 9x - 9 = (9 × 9) - 9 = 81 - 9 = 72
