Answer:

length=4

width=30

Step-by-step explanation:

length=x

width=8x-2

(8x-2)*2+2x=68

16x-4+2x=68

18x=72

x=4 (Length)

4*8=32, 32-2=30(width)

Answer:

length=4 cm

Width=30 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, I am glad I can help you with this.

Step one

define the equations

the perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

Perimeter=2*length+2*width

Let

Perimeter (P)

length(L)

Width(W)

P=2L+2W

68=2L+2W,equation (1)

The width of a rectangle is 2 cm less than 8 times the length, in other words, you can take the width and add 2 cm to find 8 times the length,in mathematical terms it is

W+2=8L, isolating W

W=8L-2,equation (2)

Step two

use equation (1) and equation (2) to find L and W

replace W from equation (2) into equation (1)

68=2L+2(8L-2)

68=2L+16L-4

68=18L-4

isolating L

68+4=18L

72/18=L

L=4 cm

replace the value of L in equation (2)

W=8L-2

W=8(4 )-2

W=32-2

W=30 cm

Hence,

length=4 cm

Width=30 cm

Have a good day.

T=mv^2/L<br><br> Write an equation that shows the given formula solved for V
Effectus [21]

Answer:

<u>v = √(LT/m)</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

  • T = mv²/L

Multiply both sides with L :

  • T × L = mv²/L x L
  • LT = mv²

Divide both sides by m :

  • LT × 1/m = mv² × 1/m
  • LT/m = v²

Take the square root on each side :

  • √v² = √(LT/m)
  • <u>v = √(LT/m)</u>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive rule is given by;

a = r .an-1 where n is the number of terms.

Given the sequence: -64, -16, -4 , -1, ....

This sequence is a geometric sequence with common ratio (r) = 1/4

Here, first term a1 = -64

Since,

\frac{-16}{-64} = \frac{1}{4}

\frac{-4}{-16} = \frac{1}{4} and so on....

The recursive rule for this sequence is;

an = 1/4*an-1
