<h2>PERIMETER</h2>

\rm\large{Hi!!}

<h3>PROBLEM: </h3>

  • The table below lists the widths of four rectangles each with an area of 72 cm².

Rectangle 1 : 6 cm (width)

Rectangle 2 : 8 cm (width)

Rectangle 3 : 10 cm (width)

Rectangle 4 : 18 cm (width)

Which of the four rectangle has the smallest perimeter?

\huge\purple{\overline{\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad \ \ \ }}

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

<h3>ANSWER and SOLUTION:</h3>

  • Now, to be able to determine <em>what </em><em>rectangle</em><em> </em><em>has</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>smallest</em><em> </em><em>perimeter</em><em>,</em><em> </em>we have to get the perimeter of all rectangles.

FORMULA TO BE USED: P = 2(l+w)

Now that we have the formula, Let's Solve!!

\huge\purple{\overline{\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad \ \ \ }}

CALCULATION FOR RECTANGLE 1:

Given:

  • Length = 72
  • Width = 6

Formula:

  • P = 2(l+w)

Substitution:

  • P = 2(72+6)
  • P = 2(78)
  • P= 156

  • The <u>perimeter of Rectangle 1 is 156.</u>

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

CALCULATION FOR RECTANGLE 2:

Given:

  • Length = 72
  • Width = 8

Formula:

  • P = 2(l+w)

Substitution:

  • P = 2(72+8)
  • P = 2(180)
  • P = 160

  • The <u>perimeter of Rectangle 2 is 160.</u>

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

CALCULATION FOR RECTANGLE 3:

Given:

  • Length = 72
  • Width = 10

Formula:

  • P = 2(l+w)

Substitution:

  • P = 2(72+10)
  • P = 2(82)
  • P = 164

  • The <u>perimeter of Rectangle 3 is 164.</u>

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

CALCULATION FOR RECTANGLE 4:

Given:

  • Length = 72
  • Width = 18

Formula:

  • P = 2(l+w)

Substitution:

  • P = 2(72+18)
  • P = 2(90)
  • P = 180

  • The <u>perimeter</u><u> </u><u>of </u><u>Rectangle </u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>1</u><u>8</u><u>0</u><u>.</u>

\huge\purple{\overline{\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad \ \ \ }}

<h3>NOW, LET'S SUMMARIZE THE PERIMETER OF EVERY RECTANGLE^^</h3>

  • Rectangle 1 = 156
  • Rectangle 2 = 160
  • Rectangle 3 = 164
  • Rectangle 4 = 180

Now, among all of these four rectangles, which one is the smallest? Yes, <u>the one that has the smallest perimeter is the Rectangle 1</u>.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ

Again, the final answer is <u>A. Rectangle 1</u>.

Write the rule for the nth term of geometric sequence a1=6 and r=3
pychu [463]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

Given;

a1 = 6

and r = 3

Then;

Let's see, we have a1 "first term" and r "common ratio". So, firstly use the formula.

nth \: term \: of \: geometric \: sries =  {a}^{} . {r}^{n - 1}

Now, keep all values.

nth = 6 \times  {3}^{n - 1}

So, it becomes like this.

Therefore, the rule is nth= 6*3^n-1.

<em>Hope</em><em> </em><em>it </em><em>helps</em><em>!</em>

Ian can buy bottles of water in packages of 6 for $9.24 or in packages of 4 for $8.80. How much money does he save by buying 12
kati45 [8]

Answer:

Ian saves 7.92

Step-by-step explanation:

9.24/6=1.54

2*9.24= 18.48

8.80/4=2.20

3*8.80= 26.40

26.0 - 18.48 = 7.92

Write 5% as a decimal.
jolli1 [7]
You cannot do it that way.  Make sure the question you wrote is correct, because you would divide 5 by 100, not 100 by 5.  A simple way is to move the decimal point two points to the left.  5% as a decimal is 0.05.  

The answer is false if the question is written this way.
