A rectangle has an area of 1/6 square centimeters and a length of 1.5 centimeters. what is the width? what is the perimeter?

1 answer:

6 0

The area of a rectangle can be calculated by the product of its length and the width. Here we are given the area and the length so we can simply calculate for width. The perimeter is the sum of all the side lengths of the shape. We calculate as follows:

Area = lxw
1/6 = 1.5w
w = 1/9

Perimeter = 2l + 2w
Perimeter = 5/9

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Find the equation of the line that

olganol [36]

Answer:

y= $\frac{1}{2}x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal gradients(slopes) so the slope of your new line would be 1/2. Then you use the point to find the new y-intercept

y=mx+b

2= $\frac{1}{2}$ (8)+b

2=4+b

B=-2

y= $\frac{1}{2}x-2$

The average of Aaron's three test scores must be at least 93 to earn an A in the class. Aaron scored 89 on the first

victus00 [196]

Answer:

Aaron must obtain a 96 or higher to achieve the desired score to earn an A in the class.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the average of Aaron's three test scores must be at least 93 to earn an A in the class, and Aaron scored 89 on the first test and 94 on the second test, to determine what scores can Aaron get on his third test to guarantee an A in the class, knowing that the highest possible score is 100, the following inequality must be written:

93 x 3 = 279

89 + 94 + S = 279

S = 279 - 89 - 94

S = 96

Thus, at a minimum, Aaron must obtain a 96 to achieve the desired score to earn an A in the class.

5000 people went to vote. Candidate Smith claimed 52% of the votes. Candidate Adams claimed 2681 votes. What percentage does can

boyakko [2]

The percentage of votes claimed by Adam is 53.62 %

Solution:

Given that, 5000 people went to vote

Candidate Smith claimed 52% of the votes. Candidate Adams claimed 2681 votes

To find: Percentage claimed by Adam

From given,

Total number of votes = 5000

Votes claimed by Adam = 2681

The formula used is:

$Percentage\ claimed\ by\ Adam = \frac{\text{votes claimed by adam}}{\text{Total number of votes}} \times 100$

Substituting the values we get,

$Percentage\ claimed\ by\ Adam = \frac{2681}{5000} \times 100\\\\Percentage\ claimed\ by\ Adam = 0.5362 \times 100\\\\Percentage\ claimed\ by\ Adam = 53.62$

Thus percentage of votes claimed by Adam is 53.62 %
