Answer:

length = 36 ft; width = 12 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x.

The length is 3x.

The perimeter is the sum of two lengths and two widths, and it equals 96 ft.

3x + 3x + x + x = 96

8x = 96

x = 12

Width = x = 12 ft

Length = 3x = 3(12 ft) = 36 ft

Answer:  Required equation : 8w=96

Dimensions of the pen:

Width = 12 feet and Length =36 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the width of rectangular pen, then the length of the rectangular pen will be 3w.

We know that the perimeter of rectangle is given by "2length+2width".

Perimeter of rectangular pen = 2(3w)+2(w) =6w+2w=8w       (1)

Given : You have 96 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular pen for your dog.

i.e. Perimeter of rectangular pen  = 96 feet               (2)

From (1) and (2), we get

8w=96\\\\\Rightarrow\ w=12 [Divide both sides by 8]

Thus, width = 12 feet and length = 3(12)=36 feet.

6/8 divide by 8/12<br> A. 9/2<br><br><br> B. 8/9<br><br><br> C. 9/8<br><br><br> D. 9/32
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

C. 9/8

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{6}{8}  \div  \frac{8}{12}

Use KCF which means Keep the first fraction, Change the second fraction by flipping it and change the division sign to a multiplication symbol:

\frac{6}{8}  \times  \frac{12}{8}

multiply the numerator together:

6 × 12 = 72

multiply the denominator together:

8 × 8 = 64

now the fraction is:

\frac{72}{64}

simplify further by dividing both numbers by 8:

72 ÷ 8 = 9

64 ÷ 8 = 8

so the fraction is 9/8

I don’t know how to do this I need help on 75-77
Black_prince [1.1K]
We need to find the surface area and volume for each rectangular prism. Here are the formulas I'm going to plug each prism's measurements.
S.Area=2(lw+wh+lh)
Volume: lwh

Question 75:
Volume: 3×1×3=9 cm³
Surface Area= 2(3)+2(3)+2(9)=6+6+18=30 cm²

Question 76:
Volume: 6×2×5=60 ft.³
Surface Area: 2(12)+2(10)+2(30)=24+20+60=104 ft²

Question 77:
Volume: 4×2×6=48 m³
Surface Area: 2(8)+2(12)+2(24)=16+24+48=88 m²
