Ok, think about it. What’s the definition of a irrational number? Can the number be converted to a fraction or be able to be turned into a decimal that repeats or terminates? If so your looking at a rational number. If it can’t be turned into a fraction or become a repeating or terminating decimal then your number is likely a irrational number. Hope this helps. And your number is a rational number.
Answer:
3600
Step-by-step explanation:
keeping in mind that complex roots never come alone, their sister is always with them, the conjugate, so if we know that "i" or namely "0 + i" is there, her sister the conjugate "0 +i" must also be there too, so let's take a peek

Check the picture below.
Yes you did the equation on this page correctly.
Length (L): 2w + 3
width (w): w
Perimeter (P) = 2L + 2w
60 = 2(2w + 3) + 2(w)
60 = 4w + 6 + 2w
60 = 6w + 6
54 = 6w
9 = w
Length (L): 2w + 3 = 2(9) + 3 = 18 + 3 = 21
Answer: width = 9 feet, length = 21 feet
