A rectangle has a perimeter of 16p centimeters. It has a width of 2p centimeters. Find the length of the rectangle in terms of p

If the width is 2p then the width of both sides is 4p. Subtract that from the total perimeter and you get 16p-4p= 12p. Divide that by two because there are 2 side lengths. So, one side length is 6p.

In a rectangle, we know that opposite sides are congruent (the same size). So, if you add the width of one side and the width of the other, you get 4. Then, you would subtract 4 from 16, which is 12. Next, divide 12 by 2 to get 6, the other 2 congruent sides of a rectangle. As a result, the length of the rectangle is 6 centimeters.

Work: w = width. width = 2
16 - 2(w) = l

16 - 2(2) = l

16 - 4 = 1

12 = l

6 = l

A line through which two points would be parallel to a line with a slope of 3/4?

Mumz [18]

Answer:

F. (0, 5) and (-4, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to calculate the slope of each of the given sets of points until we find the set associated with a slope of 3/4:

F. (0,5) and (-4,2) As we go from (-4, 2) to (0,5), x increases by 4 and y increases by 3, so the slope is m = rise / run = 3/4. This is the line with slope 3/4.

Answer:

$\text{Lateral surface area of container}=270\text{ cm}^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We have been given that a container is shaped like a triangle prism. Each base of container is an equilateral triangle with each side 6 cm. The height of container is 15 cm.

To find the lateral surface area of our given container we will use lateral surface area formula of triangular prism.

$\text{Lateral surface area of triangular prism}=(a+b+c)*h$ , where, a, b and c represent base sides of prism and h represents height of the prism.
