If you let the width be x, then the length will be 2x + 3. The perimeter P is
twice the width plus twice the length, i.e.,
P = 2*x + 2*(2x + 3) = 2x + 4x + 6 = 6x + 6.
So if the perimeter is 66 cm then 66 = 6x + 6 ---> 6x = 60 ---> x = 10 cm.,
and so if the perimeter is at most 66 cm., the width can be at most 10 cm..
Answer A 7.6 earthquake is more than 2x more powerful than a 3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
1)|AM| = |MB| = x
|AN| = |NC| = y
|BC| = 2y - 2x = 2(y - x)
|MN| = y - x
Therefore |BC| = 2|MN|
2)|AM| = |MB| = x
|AN| = |NC| = y
|BC| = 2y - 2x = 2(y - x)
|MN| = y - x
Therefore |BC| = 2|MN|
