Answer:
20 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of a rectangular deck is five times it's width if the decks perimeter is 24 feet what is the decks area
Step 1
We find the Length and Width of the deck
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W
The length of a rectangular deck is five times it's width
W = Width
L = Length = 5W
P = 24 feet
Perimeter = 2(5W) + 2W
24 = 10W + 2W
24 = 12 W
W = 24/12
W = 2 feet
Solving for L
L = 5W
L = 5 × 2 feet
L = 10 feet
Step 2
We find the area of the deck
Area of the deck(Rectangle) = Length × Width
= 10 feet × 2 feet
= 20 square feet

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
- 2.3 + (- 5.7)
reminder that + (- ) = -
To obtain - 3.4 it is likely that she added 2.3 to - 5.7
The solution is
- 2.3 - 5.7 = - 8
6 is 9.088 because it said it for u
x= length, y=width
Both the length and width were increased by 60% so now they are:
1.6x and 1.6y
Then they were both reduced by 25% so now they are 75%(100-25) of their previous size so they are:
0.75(1.6x) and 0.75(1.6y)
Their area would be length * width so it would be:
0.75(1.6x) * 0.75(1.6y)
Simplified this would be:
1.2x * 1.2y
Simplified more it would be :
1.44xy which is also 144% of xy which is a 44% increase of the original area (xy)
So the answer is:
44%
