The perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as:

P = perimeter

l = length

w = width

P = 2(l + w)

Plug in our values to the formula mentioned above

32 m = 2(l + 5).

Start by dividing each side by 2.

16 = l + 5.

Subtract 5 from each side.

11 = l.

The length of your town is 11 miles

y = x2 - 6x - 8 Complete the square in the quadratic equation in order to write the equation in vertex form.
Airida [17]

Answer:

y = (x-3)^2 - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, take the middle term bx and divide it in two. Then take the square.

x^2 - 6x - 8 has bx = -6x. Take -6/2 = -3. Square -3^2 = 9.

Now to finish completing the square add 9 and subtract 9 from one side.

y = x^2 - 6x - 8

y = (x^2 - 6x +9) -9 - 8

y = (x-3)^2 - 17

The paint mixer wants to mix paint that is 30% gloss with paint that is 15% gloss to make 3.75 gallons of paint that is 20% glos
Kipish [7]

The paint mixer should mix 1.238 gallon paint that is 30 % gloss and 2.512 gallon paint that is 15 % gloss to get 3.75 gallon of paint that is 20 % gloss.

In this question we must determine the correct volumes of each paint to obtain a 20 % gloss with paint by means of weighted averages:

c_{r} = x\cdot c_{a} +(1-x)\cdot c_{b} (1)

Where:

  • x - Proportion of the paint that is 30 % gloss.
  • c_{a} - Concentration ratio of the paint that is 30 % gloss.
  • c_{b} - Concentration ratio of the paint that is 15 % gloss.
  • c_{r} - Resulting concentration ratio

If we know that c_{a} = 0.3, c_{b} = 0.15 and c_{r} = 0.2, then the proportion of the paint that is 30 % gloss is:

0.2 = 0.3\cdot x +(1-x)\cdot 0.15

0.2 = 0.15\cdot x+0.15

0.15\cdot x = 0.05

x = 0.33

And the quantity of gallons needed of each paint are:

Paint (30 % gloss)

V_{a} = 0.33\cdot (3.75\,gal)

V_{a} = 1.238\,gal

Paint (15 % gloss)

V_{b} = V-V_{a}

V_{b} = 3.75\,gal-1.238\,gal

V_{b} = 2..512\,gal

The paint mixer should mix 1.238 gallon paint that is 30 % gloss and 2.512 gallon paint that is 15 % gloss to get 3.75 gallon of paint that is 20 % gloss.

¿ cuál será el volumen de una pirámide hexagonal si las aristas de la base miden 8cm, la apotema vale9.93cm y su altura es de 28
dem82 [27]

Answer:

2224.32 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

La fórmula para el volumen de una pirámide hexagonal = 1/3 (1/2 × P × a) × h

Donde a = Apotema = 9,93 cm

P = Perímetro =

Pirámide hexagonal = 6 × Bordes de la base = 6 × 8 cm = 48 cm

h = Altura = 28 cm

Por eso,

Volumen de la pirámide hexagonal = 1/3 (1/2 (48 × 9.93) × 28 cm

= 1/3 × 238.32 × 28 cm

= 2224.32 cm³

Volumen de la pirámide hexagonal = 2224.32 cm³
