Answer:

13.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the paper square = 18inches

Perimeter of a square = 4s

4s = 18 inches

s = 18/4 = 4.5 inches

Therefore, each side of the square = 4.5 inches.

When the square is cut into 2 rectangles,

The perimeter of one of the rectangles is 10 inches.

Perimeter of the second rectangle = 2L + 2W

Let the length of the rectangle (L) = one side of the square = 4.5 inches

Width of the Rectangle = Length of the square/2 = 4.5 inches/ 2 = 2.25

Perimeter of the second rectangle = 2(4.5) + 2(2.25)

= 9 + 4.5

= 13.5 inches

Ymorist [56]
1. Do NOT stress! Just relax, it will be fine.
2. Make a list of things you have not mastered yet.
3. In your list, just go over one thing at a time (in your math, reading, science, social studies book)
4. Take it slowly, but pace yourself to when your testing is.
5. After you have studied these things, just look over them one more time.
6. Take the test.
7. Relax in the test... if you don't know a question just skip it.
8. Come back to the problems you skipped.
9. Narrow down the answer choices.
10. Succeed 

I hope this helps! Good Luck on your test!

kolezko [41]
The percentage is 6% cause, she said that the book was $50 but was original $56 , so ...first go by sabrinas cost ( 50 ) and the actual ( 56 ) so think how much was subtracted from the original price? s - 50 .. a- 56. .... 50 + 6 =56 so go by the amount of the price added to the percentage ...6 % is the answer..hoped this helped

Please answer with explanation of how you got the answer !!
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

−24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there is only one negative, this means when all the values are multiplied together the product will be negative. Just multiply all three together to get −24.

(3)(−4)(2)

(−12)(2)

−24

It doesn't matter which order you multiply in in this case.
