Rectangle:
P = 2 (L+W) but length is 2 meters longer than wide
then L = W + 2, So
P = 2 (L + W)
24 = 2(W+2+W)
24 = 2 (2 + 2W)
24 = 4 + 4W
So 4W = 24 -4 =20
W = 20/4= 5, L = 5+2= 7

Double check
24 = 2*(5+7) = 2 *12 = 24

Answer:

the width of the rectangle is, 5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter(P) of the rectangle is given by:

P = 2(l+w)                  ....[1]

where,

l is the length and w is the width of the rectangle.

As per the statement:

Tracy needs to find the length and width of the equipment storage room where she works.

The room is 2 meters long than it is wide. its perimeter is 24 meters.

then;

l = w+2

P = 24 meter

Substitute the given values in [1] we have;

24 = 2(w+2+w)

Divide both sides by 2 we have;

12 = 2w+2

Subtract 2 from both sides we have;

10 = 2w

Divide both sides by 2 we have;

5 = w

or

w = 5 meters

Therefore, the width of the rectangle is, 5 meters

By decreasing each dimension by 1 unit, the area of a rectangle deceased from 40 square feet to 28 square feet. Find the percent
arsen [322]

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial area is 40 square feet

Final area is 28 square feet

Difference between the initial and final areas will be 40-28=12 square feet

Taking the initial area as the base area and expressing the area change in percentage then the percentage decrease will be equivalent to

\frac {12\times 100}{40}=30

Therefore,  the decrease in area expressed as a percentage is equal to 30%

a) 170.00 =8n -30

200= 8n

n = 200/8 = 25 items


b) since the expenses increased the profits would decrease

profit = 8(25)-40 = 200-40 = 160

170-160 = 10.00

 profit decreased by $10.00

Answer the following true or false. Justify your answer.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

a) False b) False c) True d) True e) True

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If A is a subset of B, and x∈B, then x∈A. False

Suppose A is Z (Set of Integers), and B is R (Set of Real Numbers). Then A is a subset of B. x ∈ B, let's say x equals π. If x ∈ B (B = Real Numbers) and x=π then x ∉ A (Z).

We could call A, any other subset of Real numbers (Q, I,..) and we both would come up to the same conclusion when it comes to Real numbers the Set.

So this conclusion is False. Not always an element of a subset is an element of a set.

b) False

For this one, I've drawn some lines, and it is useful to work with them.

Given the set {(x,y) ∈ R²| 0<x<0} then all negative and positive numbers but zero belong to this set.

c) If A and B are square matrices, then AB is also square. True

Taking into account the rules for multiplying matrices. The number of columns of A must be the same number of lines of B to there can be a matrix product.

Whenever we multiply square matrices, we'll always get square matrices. Then this conclusion is true.

d) A and B are subsets of a set S, then A∩B and A∪B are also subsets of S. True

Suppose A= Z (Integer Numbers) and B=Q (Rational Numbers) and S= R (Real Numbers)

A∩B = Z∩Q=∅ and A∪B =Z∪Q = subset

Since the ∅ empty set ⊂ in every set and ZUQ is another Subset of R this is a True conclusion.

e) True. For a matrix A, we define A²= AA

For any Power of Matrices, all we have to do is multiply any given matrix by itself for a given number of times.

M²=M*M

M³=M*M*M
