The width is 1/2 mi.

We know that area of a rectangle is length times width:

A = lw

The length is 2 2/3 the width, so 
l = 2 2/3w

We will change this to an improper fraction; multiply the denominator by the whole number and add the numerator:
l = 8/3w

Using this for l in the area formula, we have:
A = (8/3w)(w) = 8/3w²
2/3 = 8/3w²

Divide both sides by 8/3:

2/3÷8/3 = 8/3w²÷8/3
2/3×3/8 = w²
2/8 = w²
0.25 = w²

Take the square root of both sides:
√0.25 = √w²
0.5 = w

What value of x is in the solution set of -2(3x + 2) > -8x + 6?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

x > 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

= -2(3x + 2) > -8x + 6

 (negative sign before bracket will alter the internal signs when multiplied by each term)

= -6x - 4 > -8x +6

Taking x terms on left side and other constants on right side

= -6x + 8x > 6 +4

Signs will be changer for transferred terms

= 2x > 10

By Dividing both sides 2 we get

=x > 10/2

= x >5

A photograph 5 inches wide by 6 inches high is to be enlarged so that the new height is 20 inches. what will the width of the en
Vika [28.1K]
The new width is 16.6666666667 inches, which can be rounded to 16.7. 

Width:     5           ?
Height:    6          20

We know that based on the information provided, the new height is 20 inches.

So, in order to solve, you can cross multiply (5 x 20), which would be 100. Then

divide by 6, to get 16.6666666667 or 16.7.
