Answer:

The length of rectangle =18 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose of length of rectangle=x

Width of rectangle =\frac{2}{3}x

Area of rectangle =216 m^2

We have to find the length of rectangle .

Area of rectangle =length\times breadth

Substitute the values in the given formula

216=x\times \frac{2}{3}x

216=\frac{2}{3}x^2

2x^2=216\times 3 By multiplication property of equality

x^2=\frac{216\times 3}{2} ( by division property of equality )

x=\sqrt{324}=18

Substitute the value then we get

Width of rectangle =\frac{2}{3}\times 18=12 m

Hence, the length of rectangle =18 m.

Mark would like to build a rectangle frame. The dimensions of the frame are unknown, but the perimeter of the frame must be 80 y
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The length of the frame is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the length of the frame is shown below:

As we know that

The perimeter of a rectangle is

= 2 (length + width)

where,

let us assume the width be x

So, the length is x - 6

And, the perimeter is 80 yards

So, now put these values to the above formula

80 yards = 2 (x - 6+ x)

80 yards = 2 (2x - 6)

80 yards = 4x - 12

92 = 4x

x = 23

So, the length of the frame is

= 23 - 6

= 17

Mary can make a quilt in 3 days and Eva can make
Rina8888 [55]

Answer: in explanation

Step-by-step explanation

Sandi can perform  1/9 of the task in a day

Eva can perform 1/5 of the task in a day

Working together, they can perform

                                                            1/9 + 1/5 of the task per day

                                                            = 5/45 + 9/45 = 14/45 of the task in a day

or                                                             45/14 days in the task = 3.2 days

So

          It would take about 3.2 days to complete the task working togethe

How do you work out the range in a dot plot
son4ous [18]

Answer:

By examining the line plot, we find the number with the maximum number of crosses or occurrences. This gives the mode of the data set. We find the smallest and the largest number from the data set and find their difference and this difference is the range of the given data set.

How do the values compare? Order the values from least to greatest.
aleksley [76]
Im pretty sure it would be ordered: -2 1/2, -1/2, |1/2|, 1 1/2, |-2|, |-2 1/2|

This is because
-1/2 stays as -1/2
the absolute value of |-2| is 2
the absolute value of |1/2| is 1/2
the absolute value of |-2 1/2| is 2 1/2
-2 1/2 stays as -2 1/2
and 1 1/2 stays the same as well.
If you take all these numbers (-1/2, 2, 1/2, 2 1/2, -2 1/2, and 1 1/2) and order them from least to greatest, you would get:
-2 1/2, -1/2, 1/2, 1 1/2, 2, 2 1/2
which is -2 1/2, -1/2, |1/2|, 1 1/2, |-2|, |-2 1/2|

Im not exactly sure if it is all correct, but i hope this helps! :)
