The length and width of the given rectangle are 52 ft and 48 ft respectively.

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

The relationship between the length and breadth is given as following:

The length is 4 more feet than the width

The perimeter of the rectangle is given as 200 ft.

The formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle is:

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Let length and width of the rectangle be denoted as ‘L’ and ‘B’

The given relationship between length and width can be written in equation form as follows:

L = 4 + B ------ eqn 1

Substitute the value of "L" in perimeter of triangle

200 = 2(4 + B + B)

200 = 2(4 + 2B)

200 = 8 + 4B

4B = 192

B = 48

Since, we know the value of width lets substitute it in eq1 to find the length.

L = 4 + 48

L = 52

Therefore, the length and width of the given rectangle are 52 ft and 48 ft respectively.

The Coffee Counter charges $8.00 per pound for Kenyan French Roast coffee and $10.00 per pound for Sumatran coffee. How much o

Radda [10]

Answer:

x = 9

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Let :

Kenyan French roast coffee = x

Cost per x = $8

Sumatran Coffee = y

Cost per y = $10

x + y = 18 - - - - (1)

8x + 10y = 9 * 18 ;

8x + 10y = 162 - - - - (2)

From (1):

x = 18 - y

Put x = 18 - y in (2)

8(18 - y) + 10y = 162

144 - 8y + 10y = 162

2y = 162 - 144

2y = 18

y = 9

x = 18 - y

x = 18 - 9

x = 9

A students work to simplify a radical is shown below. Select the statemmebt which best applies to rhe sample mathematical work

Alik [6]

Answer:

D. The work shown above is correct, and $y^5\sqrt[4]{y^3}$ may not be simplified further.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you add all the exponents of y in first line then we get

4+4+4+4+4+3=23

Which is same as the exponent in original problem.

So first line is good.

Since it is 4th root so each $y^4$ will turn into y when it moves out of the radical so final answer is correct.

Hence correct choice is "D. The work shown above is correct, and $y^5\sqrt[4]{y^3}$ may not be simplified further." is the correct answer.

A Cepheid variable star is a star whose brightness alternately increases and decreases. For a certain star, the interval between

sattari [20]

Answer:

$B'(t) = \dfrac{0.9\pi}{4.4}\cos\bigg(\dfrac{2\pi t}{4.4}\bigg)$

b) 0.09

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

$B(t) = 4.2 +0.45\sin\bigg(\dfrac{2\pi t}{4.4}\bigg)$

where B(t) gives the brightness of the star at time t, where t is measured in days.

a) rate of change of the brightness after t days.

$B(t) = 4.2 +0.45\sin\bigg(\dfrac{2\pi t}{4.4}\bigg)\\\\B'(t) = 0.45\cos\bigg(\dfrac{2\pi t}{4.4}\bigg)\times \dfrac{2\pi}{4.4}\\\\B'(t) = \dfrac{0.9\pi}{4.4}\cos\bigg(\dfrac{2\pi t}{4.4}\bigg)$

b) rate of increase after one day.

We put t = 1

$B'(t) = \dfrac{0.9\pi}{4.4}\cos\bigg(\dfrac{2\pi t}{4.4}\bigg)\\\\B'(1) = \dfrac{0.9\pi}{4.4}\bigg(\cos(\dfrac{2\pi (1)}{4.4}\bigg)\\\\B'(t) = 0.09145\\B'(t) \approx 0.09$

The rate of increase after 1 day is 0.09
