Answer:

160 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = L times W

In a rectangle, there are 4 sides

2 are width

2 are length

56 is total

8 + 8 = 16

56 - 16 = 40

40 is what is left for the 2 length sides

since there are 2 sides and they need to be equal, we divided 40 by 2

40 / 2 = 20

the length of one side is 20

area = 8 times 20

a = 160 inches

Answer:

7.235 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theory

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

A = 4.7

B = 5.5

4.7^2 + 5.5^2 = C^2

22.09 + 30.25 = C^2

√52.34 = √C^2

7.235 cm ≈ C

your local gas stations are having a price war during the past seven days they have lowered the price of regular gas by $0.2 eac

Serga [27]

<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

Let x denotes the number of days and y denotes the total change in gas price ( in dollars).

Given : During the past seven days the price of regular gas is decreased by $0.2 each day.

Rate of decrease =$0.2 per day

Then , Total change in gas price = Rate of decrease x Number of days

i.e. $y= 0.2 \times x$

i.e. $y=0.2x$ (1)

To find the total change in gas price in 7 days , we put x= 7 in (1) , we get

$y=0.2(7)=1.4$

Hence, the total change in gas price in 7 days = $1.4
