Mathematics

Rzqust [24]3 years ago

Answer:

The dimensions of the rectangle are two unknowns: The length "l" and the width "w"

The perimeter of a rectangle is found as P = 2*l + 2*w

We also know that the length is 5cm more than twice the width. l = 2*w + 5

These two equations gives us a system of linear equations.

P = 2*l + 2*w

l = 2*w + 5

We can use substitution to replace the "l" in the first equation with 2*w + 5

P = 2*(2*w + 5) + 2*w

P = 4*w + 10 + 2*w

P = 6*w + 10

We know that P = 34cm

34 = 6*w + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides

24 = 6 * w

Divide both sides by 6

4 = w

Now that we know the width, we can find the length by substituting 4 for "w" in the second equation.

l = 2*4 + 5

l = 8 + 5

l = 13

The dimensions of the rectangle is 13cm x 4cm

Pure copper was mixed with a 10% copper alloy to produce an alloy thát was 25% copper. How much of the pure copper and how much
lora16 [44]

Answer:

6kg pure copper and 30 kg 10% copper was mixed to give 36kg of 25% alloy

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to produce 36 kg of 25% alloy

Let the Pure copper be x kg while 10% alloy be y kg

Pure copper is simply 100% copper

Thus;

x + y = 36 •••••(i)

Then;

100% of x + 10% of y = 25% of 36

= x + 0.1y = 9 •••••• ii)

From i x = 36-y

from ii, x = 9-0.1y

Equate both x

36-y = 9-0.1y

36-9 = 0.1y + y

0.9y = 27

y = 27/0.9

y = 30

x = 36-y

x = 36-30

x = 6 kg
