Answers:
- The lengths of sides PQ and RS are <u> 13 </u>
- The lengths of sides QR and SP are <u> </u><u>20 </u>
This is a 13 by 20 rectangle.
============================================================
Explanation:
Refer to the drawing below.
Let x be the length of side SP. Since we're dealing with a rectangle, the opposite side is the same length. Side QR is also x units long.
We're told that RS = SP - 7 which is the same as saying RS = x-7
We also know that PQ = x-7 as well because PQ is opposite side RS.
In short, we have these four sides in terms of x
- PQ = x-7
- QR = x
- RS = x-7
- SP = x
as shown in the drawing. The four sides add up to the perimeter of 66.
PQ+QR+RS+SP = perimeter
PQ+QR+RS+SP = 66
(x-7)+x+(x-7)+x = 66
4x-14 = 66
4x = 66+14
4x = 80
x = 80/4
x = 20
Use this x value to find the unknown side lengths.
- PQ = x-7 = 20-7 = 13
- QR = x = 20
- RS = x-7 = 20-7 = 13
- SP = x = 20
In short, this is a 13 by 20 rectangle.
-----------------
Check:
perimeter = side1+side2+side3+side4
perimeter = PQ+QR+RS+SP
perimeter = 13+20+13+20
perimeter = 33+33
perimeter = 66
The answer is confirmed.
Answer:
$13.68
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming they rent for 1 year, the cost is broken down as follows:
Annual renting cost = 22% of 722.98 =
Usage charge = 3.2% of 159.06 =
Thus,
Total annual charge = Annual renting cost + Usage charge = 159.06 + 5.09 =164.15
Monthly rental charge would be 164.15 divided by 12 (12 months in 1 year):
dollars
Answer:
8.9 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
this seems like a problem where you can use the pythagorean theorem:
you know one of the two legs (6m) and the hypotenuse (9m), you must find the other leg
a^2 + 6^2 = 9^2
a^2 + 36 = 81
a^2 = 45
a = or
·
which simplifies to be 3
or approx. 8.9 meters
