Answer:

48 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the rug is 6 feet. We know this must account for 2 sides of the rug, so let's multiply 6 by 2.

6 × 2 = 12

Now subtract 12 from 20.

20 - 12 = 8

Now divide 8 by 2 to find the measurement of the remaining two sides.

8 ÷ 2 = 4.

The width of the rug is 4 feet. The question wants to find the width in inches, however. So multiply 4 by 12 because there are 12 inches in each foot.

4 × 12 = 48

The width of the rug is 48 inches.

PLEASE HELP IM STRUGGLING here is a rectangle all the measurements are in centimeters

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Area of the rectangle = 95 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the rectangle = Sum of the measures of the sides of the rectangle

From the figure attached,

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2[(3x -1) + (2x + 3)]

39 = 2(5x + 2)

39 = 10x + 4

10x = 39 - 4

10x = 35

x = 3.5

Therefore, measure of the given sides will be,

Length = (3x - 1) cm

3x - 1 = (3×3.5) - 1

= 10.5 - 1

= 9.5 cm

Width = (2x + 3) cm

2x + 3 = (2×3.5) + 3

= 7 + 3

= 10 cm

Area of the rectangle = Length × width

= 9.5 × 10

= 95 cm²

Therefore, area of the rectangle is 95 cm².

What is 65 to the 5 power multiplied by 10 to the 9 power divded by 42??

Tcecarenko [31]

So lets set up what our question looks like.
$65^{5} * 10^{9} 
$ ÷ 42

So we can follow the rules of PEMDAS
and it says to figure out exponents first.
So $65^{5} = 1,160,290,625
$
And..
$10^{9} = 1,000,000,000

$

Now we have to multiply those two numbers next...
1,160,290,625 x 1,000,000,000 = 1,160,290,625,000,000,000

Big numbers...
Now to divide that by 42
1,160,290,625,000,000,000 ÷ 42 = 27,625,967,260,000,000

I'm not sure if this is the correct answer anymore.
But my answer is 27,625,967,260,000,000

GOOD LUCK! :P
