Answer:

A. 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Applying,

P = 2(L+W)............. Equation 1

Where P = Perimter of the rectangle, L = Length of the rectangle, W = width of the rectangle.

make W the subject of the equation

W = (P/2)-L............ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: P = 32 inches, L = 1 foot (Convert from Foot to inches), L = 12 inches

Substitute these values into equation 2

W = (32/2)-12

W = 16-12

W = 4 inches.

Hence the right option is A.

Applying properties of Exponents In Exercise, use the properties of exponents to simplify the expression.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

(a) $5^{8}$

(b) 3

(c) 27

(d) $\dfrac{1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need simplify the given expressions.

(a)

Consider the given expression is

$(5^4)(25^2)$

$(5^4)((5^2)^2)$

Using the properties of exponents we get

$(5^4)(5^4)$ $[\because (a^m)^n=a^{mn}]$

$5^{4+4}$ $[\because a^ma^n=a^{m+n}]$

$5^{8}$

(b)

Consider the given expression is

$(9^{\frac{1}{3}})(3^{\frac{1}{3}})$

$((3^2)^{\frac{1}{3}})(3^{\frac{1}{3}})$

Using the properties of exponents we get

$(3^{\frac{2}{3}})(3^{\frac{1}{3}})$ $[\because (a^m)^n=a^{mn}]$

$3^{\frac{2}{3}+\frac{1}{3}}$ $[\because a^ma^n=a^{m+n}]$

$3^{1}$

$3$

(c)

Consider the given expression is

$(\dfrac{1}{3})^{-3}$

Using the properties of exponents we get

$(\dfrac{3}{1})^{3}$ $[\because a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}]$

$3^{3}$

$27$

(d)

Consider the given expression is

$(6^4)(6^{-5})$

Using the properties of exponents we get

$6^{4+(-5)}$ $[\because a^ma^n=a^{m+n}]$

$6^{-1}$

$\dfrac{1}{6^{1}}$ $[\because a^{-n}=\dfrac{1}{a^n}]$

$\dfrac{1}{6}$

HELP <br><br>Solve the formula E = /(R + r) for r.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

r= RE/I

Step-by-step explanation:

E=I(R+r)

divide both sides by I

E/I = R+r

subtract both sides by R

R(E/I) = r

r = RE/I
