<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

The width is 18cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation of the area of a rectangle is:

Area = length * width

Then you substitute in the values you know:

144 = 8 * width

To find the width you need to rearrange the formula to make the width the subject. Do this by dividing the area by the length:

Width = 144 / 8

Width = 18

So the width is 18cm

ratio of the diagonal to the side of the rectangle is 17/8 or 17:8

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of Diagonal = 34 inches

Length of side = 16 inches

Base= 30 inches

We need to find the ratio of the diagonal to the side of the rectangle.

ratio of the diagonal to the side of the rectangle = $\frac{length of diagonal}{length of side}$

Putting values:

$Ratio=\frac{34}{16} \\Simplifying:\\Ratio=\frac{17}{8}$

So, ratio of the diagonal to the side of the rectangle is 17/8 or 17:8

What is the volume of the composite figure? Express the

Papessa [141]

Answer:

$V=312\pi\ mm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of the composite figure is equal to the volume of a semi-sphere plus the volume of the cone

$V=\frac{4}{6}\pi r^{3} +\frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h$

we have

$r=6\ mm$

$h=14\ mm$

substitute

$V=\frac{4}{6}\pi (6)^{3} +\frac{1}{3} \pi (6)^{2} (14)$

$V=144\pi +168\pi$

$V=312\pi\ mm^{3}$

A 15-foot log is split into 2 pieces. How long are the pieces if the longest piece is 1.5ft shorter than two of the shorter piec

Allisa [31]

Answer:

8.25 ft & 6.75 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know it's split into two pieces, right? So normally that would be 7.5 ft each. But one is 1.5 ft longer than the other. So as a result, I divided that by 2 to add 0.75 ft to piece one and subtract 0.75 ft from piece two's length. So, the longer piece is 8.25 ft, and the shorter one is 6.75 ft.
