Answer:

length= 24 inches

width= 7 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by writing down what you know.

width= w

length= 3w+3

Then, we can substitute into the perimeter of a rectangle equation, P=2l+2w.

62= 2(3w+3) + 2(w)

62=6w+6+2w

62=8w+6

56=8w

7=w

Now, plug this into our original equations for length and width:

width=7

length= 3(7)+3, so 24

The given value below figure find the value of x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know:

The sum of the quadrilateral angles measures 360°.

Therefore we have the equation:

$30^o+39^o+48^o+m\angle D=360^o\qquad(1)$

The sum of angles x and D is equal to 360°. Therefore we have the other equation:

$x+m\angle D=360^o\qquad(2)$

From (1) and (2) we have:

$x+m\angle D=30^o+39^o+48^o+m\angle D\qquad\text{subtract}\ m\angle D\ \text{from both sides}\\\\x=30^o+39^o+48^o\\\\x=117^o$

Which numbers are solutions to the equation 30=x2

GaryK [48]

Answer:

x = +√30

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write 30 = x squared as 30 = x^2.

If x^2 = 30, there are two solutions: x = +√30 and x = -√30.

Several possible answers are given. x=30−−√ is closest to the correct one, but must be written as x = √30. Please ask someone how to find the "√" operator in Brainly. Or, just write "sqrt( )" instead.

A toy baseball bat comes with 3 plastic balls. The balls are in a box that is a rectangular solid. The box is just big enough to

vodomira [7]

Answer:

31.4 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The box is just big enough to hold the 3 balls, so it must have a length 6 times the radius of each ball, a width 2 times the radius, and a height 2 times the radius.

The volume of the box is:

V = (6r)(2r)(2r)

V = 24r³

The volume of the 3 balls is:

V = 3 (4/3 π r³)

V = 4πr³

So the volume of the air is:

V = 24r³ − 4πr³

V = (24 − 4π) r³

Since r = 1.4 inches:

V = (24 − 4π) (1.4 in)³

V ≈ 31.4 in³
