 So, if L = length, and W = width, and we know what the length is, than we know that L = 24. Now here is the equation I've used:  2w=L+3 .
<span>So solve this like so:
</span><span>
2w=24+3 
2w=27 
w=13.5
So the width is 13.5.

Did this help?</span>

What is the length of Line segment B C, rounded to the nearest tenth? 13. 0 units 28. 8 units 31. 2 units 33. 8 units.
Len [333]

The length of the line segment BC is 31.2 units.

<h2>Given that</h2>

Triangle ABC is shown.

Angle ABC is a right angle.

An altitude is drawn from point B to point D on side AC to form a right angle.

The length of AD is 5 and the length of BD is 12.

<h3>We have to determine</h3>

What is the length of Line segment BC?

<h3>According to the question</h3>

The altitude of the triangle is given by;

\rm Altitude = \sqrt{xy}

Where x is DC and y is 5 units.

Then,

The length DC is.

\rm Altitude = \sqrt{xy}\\&#10;\\&#10;12 = \sqrt{(DC) \times 5}\\&#10;\\&#10;\sqrt{DC } = \dfrac{12}{\sqrt{5}}\\&#10;\\&#10;

Squaring on both sides

\rm DC = \dfrac{144}{5}\\&#10;\\&#10;DC = 28.8

Considering right triangle BDC, use the Pythagorean theorem to find BC:

\rm BC^2 = DC^2+BD^2\\\\  BC^2 = (28.8)^2+(12)^2\\&#10;&#10;\\&#10;BC = \sqrt{829.44+144}\\&#10;\\&#10;BC = \sqrt{973.44}\\&#10;\\&#10;\rm BC = 31.2 \ units

Hence, the length of the line segment BC is 31.2 units.

A man invests a certain amount of money at 2% interest and $800 more than that amount in another account at 4% interest. At the
Nookie1986 [14]
X the first account  interest = x/100*2 = 2x/100 
(x + 800)/100 * 4 =( 4x + 3200)/100 
2x/100 + (4x + 3200)/100 = 92
2x + 4x + 3200 = 9200 
6x = 6000
x = 1000
