The length of a rectangular piece of land is 4ft more than two times its width. The perimeter is 32ft. find the dimensions

1 answer:

3 0

L = 2w + 4

p = 2w + 2L

32 = 2w + 2(2w + 4)

32= 2w + 4w + 8

24 = 6w

4 = w

Now,

p = 2w + 2L
32 = 2(4) + 2L
32= 8 + 2L
24 = 2L
12 = L

check
p= 2w + 2L
32 = 2(4) + 2(12)
32 = 8 +24
32 = 32

TV−→− bisects ∠RTS. If the m∠RTV=(16x−6)° and m∠VTS=(13x+9)° , what is the value of x and the m∠RTV ?

natta225 [31]

Answer:

$x = 5$

$RTV = 74$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$RTV=16x - 6$

$VTS=13x+9$

Required

Determine the values of x and RTV

Since, TV is a bisector, then

$RTS = RTV + VTS$ --- (1)

and

$RTV = VTS$ -- (2)

Substitute values of RTV and VTS in (2)

$16x - 6 = 13x + 9$

Collect Like Terms

$16x - 13x = 9 + 6$

$3x = 15$

Solve for x

$x = 5$

Substitute 5 for x in $RTV=16x - 6$

$RTV = 16 * 5 - 6$

$RTV = 80 - 6$

$RTV = 74$

A scientist started with a sample of 8 cells. The sample increased as shown in the table.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

100000 = 8 (4) ^t

Step-by-step explanation:

We are multiplying by 4 each time

y = a (4)^t

The initial amount is 8

y = 8 (4)^t

We want to get to 100000

100000 = 8 (4) ^t
