The length of a rectangle is 8feet less than the width. The perimeter is 64 feet. Find the length and the width

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Length = 4 feet

Width = 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle formula = 2L + 2W

Where L = Length

W = Width

The length of a rectangle is 8feet less than the width.

Hence,

L = 8 - W

The perimeter is 64 feet.

Hence,

64 = 2(8 - W) × 2W

64 =( 16 - 2W )2W

64 = -4W² + 32W

4W² - 32W + 64 = 0

Factorise

4W² - 16W - 16W + 64 = 0

4W (W - 4) - 16(W - 4) = 0

W - 4 = 0

W = 4

Width = 4

Solving for L

L = 8 - W

L = 8 - 4

L = 4

Therefore,

Length = 4 feet

Width = 4 feet

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

a. 0.588

b. 0.0722

c. 4.576 sqft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b and h denote the base and height as indicated in the diagram. By pythagoras theorem, $h^2 + b^2 = 16^2 = 256 \dotsc\;(1)$ because it is a right angle triangle.

It is given that $\frac{db}{dt} = 1$

Now differentiate (1) with respect to t (time) :

$\displaystyle{2h\frac{dh}{dt} + 2b\frac{db}{dt} = 0 \implies \frac{dh}{dt} = -\frac{b}{h} \frac{db}{dt}}$

$\displaystyle{=-\frac{b}{\sqrt{256 - b^2}} \frac{db}{dt} = -\frac{8}{13.856} \times 1 = -0.588}$

The minus sign indicates that the value of h is actually decreasing. The required answer is 0.588.

b. From the diagram, infer that $16 \sin{\theta} = b$ . When b = 8, then $\theta = \arcsin{0.5} = \ang{30}$ .

Differentiate the above equation w.r.t t

$\displaystyle{16 \cos{\theta} \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{db}{dt} \implies \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{16 \cos{\theta}} = \frac{1}{13.856} = \mathbf{0.0722}}$

c. The area of the triangle is given by $A = 0.5\times h \times b$ . Differentiating w.r.t t,

$\displatstyle{\frac{dA}{dt} = 0.5 b \frac{dh}{dt} + 0.5 h \frac{db}{dt}}$

Plugging in b = 8, h = 13.856, $\frac{dh}{dt} = -0.588$ ,

$\frac{dA}{dt} = -2.352 + 6.928 = \mathbf{4.576 ft^2/sec}$
