Answer:

Width = 4ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangular mural = Length × Breadth

7 ft tall and 11 ft wide.

(11 - 2W)(7 - 2W) = 88

77 -22W - 14W + 4W² = 88

77 -36W + 4W² = 88

4W² - 36W + 77 - 88

= 4W² - 36W - 11

W = 4ft

Jon said, “m-1 is always greater than 1-m. Do you agree with Jon? LIURE DOMPE DI EL דים כר LECCE RE: A. Agree, because m is a po
Trava [24]

Given that Jon said,

"m-1 is always greater than 1-m"

we want to find how true the statement is;

\begin{gathered} \text{for m = positive integer.} \\ m=5 \\ m-1=5-1=4 \\ 1-m=1-5=-4 \\ So,\text{ } \\ m-1>1-m \\ \text{for m equals positive integer } \end{gathered}

secondly for negative values of m;

\begin{gathered} m=-5 \\ m-1=-5-1=-6 \\ 1-m=1-(-5)=1+5=6 \\ So, \\ m-1

So, the statement "m-1 is always greater than 1-m" is false.

Because 1- m is greater than m-1 when m is a negative integer.

Therefore, I Disagree, because 1- m is greater than m-1 when m is a negative integer

What is the area of the triangle in centimeters<br> squared?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

A = 112cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a triangle = (bh) / 2

b = base length and h  = height

The triangle shown has a given base length of 14cm and a given height of 16cm

Hence area = ( 16 * 14 ) / 2

16 * 14 = 224

224 / 2 = 112

A = 112cm²

Terrance is making a scale model of a
Tanya [424]

Answer:

6.4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to have to use ratio's here. We know that 1 inch = 2.5 feet and we know that Terrance is making a scale model of a  car that is 16 feet long. We need to work out the length of the car in inches so,

1 inches = 2.5 feet

? inches = 16 feet

→ We are going to divide 16 by 2.5 and then multiply that answer by 1 to get our result so

16 ÷ 2.5 = 6.4

6.4 × 1 = 6.4

The final answer is 6.4 inches
