Answer:

20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is

P = 2(l+w)

P = 2( 3x+2 + 4x)

Adding like terms

P = 2( 7x+2)

We know the perimeter is 74 units

74 = 2 ( 7x+2)

Divide by 2

74/2 = 2/2 (7x+2)

37 = 7x+2

Subtract 2 from each side

37-2 = 7x+2-2

35 = 7x

Divide by 7

35/7 = 7x/7

5 =x

We want to find the length RS = PQ = 4x

RS = 4x = 4*5 = 20

Ksju [112]
1. Calculate how many hours passed between her temperature checks. 8 p.m to 8 a.m. is 12 hours.

2. Calculate the total change in temperature. 36 - 54 is -18, so the temperature went down by 18 degrees.

3. We are looking for degrees per hour, so we put derees(18) over hours (12) to get 18/12.

4. Calculate by dividing. The answer is 1.5 degrees per hour.

Please help this question.

Answer:

a). 59.049°C

b). 2.1179 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression representing the final temperature after decrease in temperature of the metal from 100°C to T°C is,

T = 100(0.9)^{x}

where x = duration of cooling

a). Temperature when x = 5 seconds

T = 100(0.9)⁵

  = 59.049

  ≈ 59.049°C

b). If the temperature of the metal decreases from 100°C to 80°C

Which means for T = 80°C we have to calculate the duration of cooling 'x' seconds

80 = 100(0.9)^{x}

0.8 = (0.9)^{x}

By taking log on both the sides

log(0.8) =log[(0.9)^{x}]

-0.09691 = x[log(0.9)]

-0.09691 = -0.045757x

x = \frac{0.09691}{0.045757}

x = 2.1179

x ≈ 2.1179 seconds
