The length of a rectangle is twice its width. The perimeter is 30. Find its dimensions

Mathematics

Wittaler [7]3 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

perimeter (p)=30

let the length be x and breadth be x÷2 (as the length is twice of its breadth)

now, perimeter (p)=30

or, 2(l+b)=30

or, 2(x+x/2)=30

or, 6x/2=30

or, 3x=30

therefore the value of x is 10.

the dimensions are,

so, length (l)=10 breadth (b) =10/2=5...ans

hope it will help uh.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The width of the rectangle = x

Therefore the length of the rectangle = 2x, as it is twice its width

We know that the perimeter of a rectangle = 2 × (length + width)

So since the perimeter equals to 30, then we can form the equation:

                                      2×(2x+x) = 30

                                          2×(3x) = 30

                                                6x = 30

                                                   x = 5

width of the rectangle = x = 5

length of the rectangle = 2x = 2×5 = 10

If there is an unit which is in the question, remember to add it to the end of the answer. As you have not written any units in the posted question, I will leave it as it is.

Hope this helps :)

Before leaving to visit Mexico, Levant traded 270 American dollars and received 3,000 Mexican pesos. When he returned from Mexic
erica [24]

The amount of dollars that Mr. Levant would exchange for 100 pesos on his return is <u>$9</u>.

<h3>What is an exchange rate?</h3>

An exchange rate is a rate that is used to convert one nation's currency to another.

The exchange rate is based on the purchasing power of each nation's currency.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Dollars before traveling to Mexico = $270

Value of Mexican pesos received for $270 = 3,000 pesos

Exchange rate = $1 = 11.11 pesos (3,000/$270)

Amount of pesos left after the trip = 100 pesos

Value of 100 pesos in dollars = <u>$9</u> (100/$11.11)

Thus, the amount of dollars that Mr. Levant would exchange for 100 pesos on his return is <u>$9</u>.
