Answer:

The width of the rectangular room =x= 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A rectangular room is twice as long as it is wide, and its perimeter is 48 meters.

To find: The width of the room.

Solution: Let the width of the rectangular room= x meters, then the length of the rectangular room will be = 2x.

Now, Perimeter of rectangular room=2(l+b)

⇒48=2(2x+x)

⇒24=3x

⇒x=8 meters

Then, the width of the rectangular room =x= 8 meters and the breadth of the rectangular room=2x=2(8)=16 meters.

Answer:

8m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of thw room be L and the width be W. If the rectangular room is twice as long as it is wide then L = 2W.

The formula for perimeter of a triangle will be addition of all the sides of the rectangle.

Since we have two sides and 2 width in a rectangle, the perimeter;

P = L+L+W+W

P = 2L+2W

Given perimeter = 48m

48 = 2L+2W

Substituting L = 2W into the equation gives;

48 = 2(2W)+2W

48 = 4W+2W

48 = 6W

W = 48/6

W = 8m

Therefore the width of the rectangular room will be 8m

<h3>Who was Leonhard Euler?</h3>

Leonhard Euler was a mathematician from Switzerland. He introduced the fundamentals of graph theory and topology.

His main field of work includes number theory, mechanics, fluid mechanics, and many more.

The life span of Euler was between 1707 and 1783. In the last few years of his life, he lost the eye sight. But the eye sight loss doesn't affect him from doing his work. In his lifespan, he published around 886 books and articles on various fields or science, mathematics and engineering.

After the total blindness, he published more than 450 books and articles.

Math question help me
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

3 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

on the left side there is 3 circles and every circle is 3 grams, so there is 9 grams plus 6 squares for 2 grams its 12 . 9+12 =21 and two triangles with x mass

on the right side there is 2 circles , 2×3 = 6, and 3 squares, 3×2 = 6. 6+6=12 +5x

both sides are equal so we have

21+2x=12+5x

21-12=5x-2x

9=3x

x=3
