Hi there! :)
Answer:
Length = 10.5 m, width = 7 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Perimeter, or P = 35 m
Ratio of l to w = 3 : 2
Since the ratio is 3 : 2, let l = 3x, and w = 2x.
We know that the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2l + 2w. Therefore:
35 = 2(3x) + 2(2x)
35 = 6x + 4x
35 = 10x
x = 3.5
Plug this value of "x" into each expression to solve for the dimensions:
2(3.5) = w
w = 7 m
3(3.5) = l
l = 10.5 m
Therefore, the dimensions are:
Length = 10.5 m, width = 7 m.
Answer:
2 times faster
Step-by-step explanation:
because the plane takes one hour less than the bus and 60 min equal a hour and 30 plus 30 equal 60 which is a hour so then it would be 2 times as faster because it is 30 twice to equal the 60
Answer: she would catch up with Tom in 1 hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let t represent the time it will take for Mary to catch up with Tom.
Tom leaves his boat from a dock and travels at a rate of 25 miles per hour.
Distance = speed × time
Distance travelled by Tom in t hours is
25 × t = 25t
Ten minutes later, Mary leaves the same dock in her speedboat and heads after Tom. Converting 10 minutes to hours, it becomes 10/60 hour
Time spent by Mary is (t - 10/60) hours. If she travels at a rate of 30 miles per hour, it means that the distance that she would travel in
(t - 10/60) hours is
30(t - 10/60)
= 30t - 5
By the time she catches up with Tom, they would have covered the same distance. It means that
25t = 30t - 5
30t - 25t = 5
5t = 5
t = 5/5 = 1 hour
This is my answer that's a less than or equal sign
