Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is  P = 2l + 2w.  Since the length is 8 times the width, l = 8w.  You can plug this into the equation.

<em>P = 2(8w) + 2w</em>

<em>P = 16w + 2w</em>

P = 18w

Now, plug in the given value for perimeter, and solve for w.

<em>90 = 18w</em>

<em>(90)/18 = (18w)/18</em>

5 = w

Since the width is equal to 5, you can now solve for l.

<em>l = 8w</em>

<em>l = 8(5)</em>

l = 40

The length of the diagonal is equal to 40.

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

If Wendy has $27 to buy seeds, and each seed bag costs $5, then:

5 · 5 = 25

5 · 6 = 30

27<30

27>25

So, Wendy is able to buy 5 bags and remain with 2 dollars.

How many ink cartridges can you buy with 150 dollars if one cartridge costs 15 dollars ?
musickatia [10]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Very easy equation if you know how to do it. All you need to do is divide your total amount of something (in this case "150" as that's our amount of "money we're given") by whatever the price or amount is. (In this case 15. Each cartridge costs $15. I'm not amazing at explaining things like this.. Sorry about that. If you have any questions about this feel free to let me know!)

So to put it "all together":

150 ÷ 15 = 10.

10 is your answer.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!
