Answer:

Width = 20 yards , length = 100 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the field be x yards wide then it's length is 5x yards.

so x + x + 5x + 5x = 240

12x = 240

x = 20.

width = 20 , length = 100 yards.

Answer:

Width = 20yards

Length = 100 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

The field is 5 times as long as it's widths...

Let's represent the width be with "w"

The length will then become *5 * w*

The perimeter of the Rectangular field then becomes:

Perimeter (P) = 2 ( w + l)

P = 2 ( w + 5w)

But P = 240

240 = 2w + 10w

240 = 12w

Divide through by 12

w = 240/12

w = 20 yards

That is ,the width = 20yards

The length is 5 times the width

Length = 5*w

Length = 5*20

Length = 100 yards

Width = 20yards

Length = 100 yards

The measure of an angle is three times the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
madreJ [45]

Answer:

45°

135°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the measure of one angle be x

So, measure of its supplementary angle = 3x

\implies \: x  + 3x  = 180 \degree \\  \\  \implies \: 4x = 180 \degree  \\  \\\implies \: x = \frac{ 180 \degree}{4} \\  \\\implies \: x = 45 \degree \\  \\  \implies \: 3x  = 135 \degree

1. 12 = x + 3<br> 2. b+0.6= -1<br> 3. a+(-4)= -13<br> 4. x+27= -12<br> 5. a+(-1.2)= -5.5
Archy [21]
1. 12=x+3    12-3=9  now try 9+3 that is 12 so x=9
2. b+0.6=-1   -1-0.6=-1.6   -1.6+0.6=-1  b=-1.6
3. a=-9
4. x=-39 I believe
5. a=-4.3

Thirty percent of the people refused to work and just sat around. if 1400 people worked, how many just sat around?
Nezavi [6.7K]
30% can also be written as .3, which is easier to use in this case.

To find how many just sat around, multiply the number of people by the percentage of how many just sat around.

1400*.3=420

10n -11 =3 + 4n + 6n​
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

10n -11 =3 + 4n + 6n​

10n - 10n -11 =3-3 + 4n + 6n​

-11 - 3 = -10n + 4n + 6n

-14= -10n + 10n

-14 = n

Step-by-step explanation:

10n -11 =3 + 4n + 6n​

10n - 10n -11 =3-3 + 4n + 6n​

-11 - 3 = -10n + 4n + 6n

-14= -10n + 10n

-14 = n
