Answer:

  • width: 9 m
  • length: 13 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width. Then the length is 2w-5, and the perimeter is ...

  P = 2(L+W)

  44 = 2((2w-5) +w)

  44 = 6w -10

  54 = 6w

  9 = w

  2(9) -5 = 13 = length

The length of the rectangle is 13 meters; the width is 9 meters.

The length of a shadow of a building is 28m. The distance from the top of the building to the shadow is 38m. Find the height of
AlexFokin [52]
It appears that the Pythagorean theorem can be applied to this problem
  (distance to shadow)² = (height of building)² + (length of shadow)²
  (38 m)² = (height of building)² + (28 m)²
  660 m² = (height of building)²
Then the height of the building is
  height of building = √660 m ≈ 25.7 m

Yanka [14]

Answer:

  A)  10

That is, the value of "a" must be between 1 and 10 (not including 10).

_____

<em>Comment on alternatives</em>

In other places or in particular applications (some computer programming languages), the standard form of the number may be a×10^n with ...

  0.1 ≤ a < 1

In engineering use, the form of the number is often chosen so that "n" is a multiple of 3, and "a" is in the range ...

  1 ≤ a < 1000

This makes it easier to identify and use the appropriate standard SI prefix: nano-, micro-, milli-, kilo-, mega-, giga-, and so on.
