Answer:

The length of the yard is 60 feet while the width is 30 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length of Mr. Timmon's backyard is double the width, then the dimensions are related by the following expression:

length = 2*width

We also know the perimetter, since he has the exact length of fence to surround his whole yard, which is 180 feet. The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

perimeter = 2*length + 2*width

Therefore,

180 = 2*length + 2*width

With the length being double the width, we have:

180 = 2*(2*width) + 2*width

180 = 4*width + 2*width

6*width = 180

width = 180/6 = 30

length = 2*width = 2*30 = 60

The length of the yard is 60 feet while the width is 30 feet.

To find the product of 42.12 and 10³, move the decimal point in 42.12 __ places to the right because 10³ has __ zeros.
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Both answers are 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

10^3 = 10 * 10 * 10 = 1000

When you multiply 42.12 by 10^3, you are multiplying 42.12 by 1000.

When you multiply a number by a power of 10, such as 10, 100, 1000, etc., move the decimal point of the number to the right the same number of places as the number of zeros in the power of 10.

42.12 * 1000 = 42,120

Twelve and three tenths more than five and thirteen thousandths of a number d is equal to fifteen and three hundred two thousand
Masja [62]
12 and 3/10 more than 5 and 13/1000 of d equals 15 and 302/1000
12 and 3/10+(5 and 13/1000 times d)=15 and 302/1000
convert to improper fractions
12 and 3/10=123/10
5 and 13/1000=5013/1000
15 and 302/1000=15302/1000

123/10+(5013/1000 times d)=15302/1000
subtract 123/10 from both sides
123/10=12300/1000
(15302-123000)/1000=2698/1000
5013/1000 times d=2698/1000
multiply both sides by 1000/5013 to clear fraction
d=2698/5013
