The formula for perimeter is: P=2W+2L

Rewrite as: 2W = P-2L

Divide all terms by 2: P/2-L=W

Width is 1/5p, replace W in the equation: P/2-L= 1/5P

Multiply each term by 10: 5P-10L=2P

Subtract 2p from both sides and add 10L to both sides: 3P=10L

Lenght is given as 15 inches, replace L with 15 and multiply: 3P=150

Divide both sides by 3: P=50

W=1/5P = 10 inches

Answer:

10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

w = 1/5 P

Multiply each side by 5

5w = 1/5P *5

5w =P

We know the perimeter of a rectangle

P = 2(l+w)

We can set the two equations equal

5w = 2 (l+w)

l =15 inches

We can substitute 15 in for the length

5w = 2(15+w)

Distribute

5w = 30 +2w

Subtract 2w from each side

5w -2w = 30+2w-2w

3w =30

Divide each side by 3

3w/3 = 30/3

w =10

The width is 10 inches

Sabra went for a long hike and burned 845 calories in 3 1/4 hours.Nelson decided to go for a bike ride. He burned 1,435 calories

sergey [27]

Answer:

Nelson burned the most calories per hour

Explanation:

To solve this question, we will get the amount calories burned by each in one hour and then compare the two values

To do this, we will divide the total amount of calories burned by the total time

1- For Sabra:

We are given that she burnt 845 calories in $3\frac{1}{25}$ (which is equivalent to 3.25) hours

Therefore:

Calories burnt in an hour = $\frac{845}{3.25}=260$ calories/hour

2- For Nelson:

We are given that he burnt 1435 calories in $4\frac{7}{8}$ (which is equivalent to 4.875) hours

Therefore:

Calories burnt in an hour = $\frac{1435}{4.875}=294.36$ calories/hour

3- Comparing the two values:

From the above calculations, we can deduce that Nelson burned the most calories per hour

Hope this helps :)

Find the exact angular velocity in radians per hour wind W= 4.1 rpm

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

1545.66 rad/h

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the angular velocity in rad/hour when wind is moving with a speed of 4.1 rpm.

We know that,

1 revolution = 2π rad

1 hour = 60 minute

So,

$4.1\ rmm = 4.1\times \dfrac{2\pi }{(\dfrac{1}{60})}\ rad/h\\\\=1545.66\ rad/h$

So, the required angular velocity is 1545.66 rad/h.
