The length of a rectangle is 10 meters more than the width. If the perimeter is 184 meters, what are the length and the width?

1 answer:

Perimeter = (2 × Length) + (2 × Width)

If the length is dependent on the width (because the length is 10 more than the width), we can say that L = W + 10.

To find the answer to the Peri, we have to find out what the W is first.

184 = 2(W + 10) + 2W
184 = 2W + 20 + 2W
184 = 4W + 20
184 - 20 = 4W = 164
164 ÷ 4 = W
41 = W

We have found out width. Our length is W + 10, so L = 41 + 10 = 51

W = 41 and L = 51

Answer:

x=3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+4x=5

x+4x=5x

5x+2=5

-2 -2

5x=3

divide 5 from each side

Select the graph of the solution. Click until the correct graph appears. 3x + 1 < 7 (line graph)

WARRIOR [948]

3x + 1 < 7...subtract 1 from both sides
3x < 7 - 1
3x < 6 ...divide both sides by 3
x < 6/3
x < 2

there will be an open circle on 2....because the problem has no equal sign...the line will be shaded to the left...because it is less then.

Use Euler's method to obtain a four-decimal approximation of the indicated value. First use h = 0.1 and then use h = 0.05.

Juliette [100K]

Answer:

see below for the tables

Step-by-step explanation:

The differential equation is separable, so the solution is ...

$\displaystyle\dfrac{dy}{dx}=2xy\\\\\int{\dfrac{dy}{y}}=\int{2x}\,dx\\\\\ln{y}=x^2+C\\\\\text{Considering the initial condition, $C=-1$}\\\\\boxed{y=e^{x^2-1}}$

The values for yn are y+y'·h = y+2xyh. We take the "absolute error" to be the (signed) difference between the calculated yn and the actual value y(x).
