Perimeter of Rectangle= Perimeter of square

2(L+B) = 4*L
2(2x+1 + x+2) = 4*(4x-1)
6x+6= 16x -4
10x = 10
x = 1

nevsk [136]

Answer: 92.5 inches by 100 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You know that 1 inch represents 8 feet and the dimensions of the building are 740 feet by 800 feet, therefore, you must apply the proccedure shown below:

$\frac{740ft*1in}{8ft}=92,5in$

$\frac{800ft*1in}{8ft}=100in$

2. Then, as you can see, the dimensions of the building on the drawing are 92.5 inches by 100 inches.

1. A hotel is in the shape of a cylinder, with a circular foundation. The circumference of the foundation is 2 times the radiu

AysviL [449]

2)The circumference or perimeter of a circle with radius $r$ is

$P=2\pi r$ . Given $P=28\pi$ . Therefore,

$2\pi r =28\pi \\ r=14\\ d=2r=28\\ A=\pi r^2 \\ A=\pi (14)^2\\ A=[tex] 196\pi$

Thus the radius is $14\;ft$ , diameter $28\;ft$ and area $196\pi \;ft^2$

24a-18a+12a is equal to 18a
hence, divide it by 6a
so you get 3a :)
