If you move the decimal point the same number of places in the dividend and the divisor, you are multiplying them both by the same power of 10. That does not change the quotient.
ANSWER
72 square feet
EXPLANATION
The perimeter of a rectangle is given by:
P= 2l+2w
It was given that, the perimeter of the rectangular mat, is 36 feet.
36= 2l+2w
Divide through by 2.
It was given also that, the length of the mat is twice its width.
This implies that,
Put equation (2) into equation (1) to get,
This means that the length is 12 ft.
The area of the rectangular mat is
200-3w = 300-5w
Where w is the number of weeks
Rearrange and reduce:
-3w + 5w = 300-200
2 w = 100
w = 100/2 = 50 weeks
Answer:
(B)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we determine the height of the triangle which we label as y.
Using Pythagoras Theorem.
In the smaller right triangle with hypotenuse, x
Base = 7-3 =4 Units
Height, y= 24 Units
Therefore, applying Pythagoras Theorem.:
