A box has a perimeter of 27 1/2 ft. if the lenght is 9 ft. what is the area?

Mathematics

gavmur [86]3 years ago

Answer:

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

27.5 = (9 x 2) + (Width x 2)

27.5 = 18 + (Width x 2)

9.5 = (Width x 2)

4.75 = Width

check:

27.5 = (9 x 2) + (4.75 x 2)

27.5 = 18 + 9.5

27.5 = 27.5

Since the width is 4.75 and the length is 9, we can multiply the two to get the area. 4.75 x 9 = 42.75 sq. ft.

lord [1]

Using proportions, it is found that Leanne's family should book their tickets at Section U1 to maximize their chances of having a "perfect" view.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, the section with the highest proportion of perfect views should be chosen, hence:

pL1 = 57/90 = 0.633

pL2 = 33/52 = 0.635

pL3 = 47/75 = 0.623

PU1 = 55/84 = 0.655

pU2 = 27/43 = 0.628

pU3 = 22/35 = 0.629

Leanne's family should book their tickets at Section U1 to maximize their chances of having a "perfect" view.

How to write3.repeating 7 as a mixed number
ki77a [65]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call our fraction x.

x=3.777......

We want to get rid of the repeating stuff. If we multiply our fraction by 10, we get 10x=37.7777.

We see that if we subtract x from 10x, the repeating numbers will be cancelled out. Let's do this.

10x=37.7777

-

x=3.77777

=

9x=34

We divide both sides by 9.

x=34/9=3 7/9.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Simplify the expression<br>5-2(9)|+9^2÷3​
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

5 - 2×9 + 9^2/3

Hint: | Evaluate 9^2.

9^2 = 81:

5 - 2×9 + 81/3

Hint: | Reduce 81/3 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of 81 and 3.

The gcd of 81 and 3 is 3, so 81/3 = (3×27)/(3×1) = 3/3×27 = 27:

5 - 2×9 + 27

Hint: | Multiply -2 and 9 together.

-2×9 = -18:

5 + -18 + 27

Hint: | Evaluate 5 + 27 using long addition.
