Answer:

Length and the width of the rectangle is 15.5 inches and 8.5 inches respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length = 7 inches + Width

=> P = 48 inches

=> L = (7 + W) inches............. (1)

Perimeter 'P' is the sum of all sides of the rectangle 2 (L + W)

∴ 48 inches = 2 (L + W) .................(2)

Substitute for L in equation (2)

∴ 48 inches = 2 [(7 + W) + W]

48 = 2[7 + 2W]

48 = 14 +4W

48 - 14 = 4W

34 = 4W

W = 8.5 inches

Recall that: Length, L = (7 + W)

∴ L = (7 + 8.5)

L = 15.5 inches

Answer:

Width = 8.5 inches

Length = 15.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = W

Length = 7 + W

Perimeter = 2(Length) + 2(Width)

Substitute

48 = 2(7 + W) + 2(W)

Multiply

48 = 14 + 2W + 2W

Add

48 = 14 + 4W

Subtract 14 from both sides of the equation

34 = 4W

Divide both sides of the equation by 4

W = 8.5

Width = 8.5 inches

Length = 7 + Width = 7 + 8.5 = 15.5 inches

Hope this helps :)

PLEASE HELP!
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: c) $30,799.45

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming there are 52 weeks in a year, the rate and time would be converted to;

Rate = 8%/52 = 8/52%

No. of periods = 9 years * 52 weeks = 468

The amount Mr Mantle would have is;

= 15,000 * ( 1 + 8/52%) ⁴⁶⁸

= $30,799.45276

= $30,799.45

Solve for x I need help on this question
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

x\approx7.8

Step-by-step explanation:

In relation to the given angle, we are given the triangle's opposite side and hypotenuse. Therefore, we use the sine function to set up a proportion and solve for the opposite side:

sin(\theta)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

sin(23^\circ)=\frac{x}{20}

20sin(23^\circ)=x

x=20sin(23^\circ)

x\approx7.8

Therefore, the length of the opposite side is about 7.8 units

What is a 15% tip on a meal that costs $25.00
nataly862011 [7]
25.00/ 10= 2.50&#10; \\ 2.50*1.5= 3.75 \\ 25.00+3.75= 28.75
As you've got 15%, the best thing to do is to find 10%, then multiply it by 1.5. Once you've found the tip, you add this onto the cost of the meal.
Therefore, the total cost of $25 meal with a 15% tip is $28.75
Hope this helps :)
