<h3><u>The length is equal to 8.</u></h3><h3><u>The width is equal to 4.</u></h3>

2l + 2w = 24

l = 3w - 4

Because we have a value for l, we can plug it into the first equation to solve for the exact value of w.

2(3w - 4) + 2w = 24

Distributive property.

6w - 8 + 2w = 24

Combine like terms.

8w - 8 = 24

Add 8 to both sides.

8w = 32

Divide both sides by 8.

w = 4

Now that we have a value for w, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for the exact value of l.

l = 3(4) - 4

l = 12 - 4

l = 8

A shark can chase prey about 30 miles per hour. What is this rate in miles per minute?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Solution :

Give that a shark can chase prey about 30 miles per hour.

1 hour = 60 minute

by using unitary method, we will convert miles per hour into miles per minute

in 60 minutes the shark can chase the prey 30 miles

In 1 minute the shark can chase \frac{30}{60}  miles = \frac {1}{2} miles= 0.5 miles

Hence the shark can chase the prey about 0.5 miles per minute.

The molar mass of AlCl3 is 133.34 g/mol. How many molecules of AlCl3 are there in 2 g?
Mnenie [13.5K]

To solve this problem, we have to apply mole-concept to this and we would need the molar mass of AlCl3.  2g of AlCl3 contains 9.034*10^21 molecules.

<h3>Number of Molecules in 2g of AlCl3</h3>

The molar mass of AlCl3 is given as 133.34g/mol

Data;

  • mass = 2g
  • molar mass = 133.34g/mol

Using the mole concept, we can equate the molar mass to the number of molecules present in the entity.

133.34g = 6.023*10^2^3

If we equate this

133.34g = 6.023*10^2^3\\2g = x molecules\\x = \frac{2*6.023*10^2^3}{133.34} \\x = 9.034*10^2^1 molecules

From the calculations above, 2g of AlCl3 contains 9.034*10^21 molecules.
