The width of a rectangular rug is one-sixth of the length.

Answer:

width = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length = x.

The width is x/6.

perimeter = x + x + x/6 + x/6

perimeter = 56

x + x + x/6 + x/6 = 56

2x + x/3 = 56

6x/3 + x/3 = 56

7x/3 = 56

Divide both sides by 7.

x/3 = 8

x = 24

The length is 24.

width = x/6 = 24/6 = 4

Check: 24 + 24 + 4 + 4 = 48 + 8 = 56

The perimeter does equal 56.

Answer: width = 4

The maximum weight M that can be supported by a beam is jointly proportional to its width w and the square of its height h, and
Anettt [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The maximum weight M that can be supported by a beam is jointly proportional to its width w and the square of its height h, and inversely proportional to its length L. If k represent the constant of proportionality, the expression would be

M = kwh²/L

b) if w = 4 inches, h = 6 inches, length = 12 ft

1 foot = 12 inches

12 ft = 12 × 12 = 144 inches. Therefore

L = 144 inches

M = 4800lb

Substituting these values into

M = kwh²/L, it becomes

4800 = (k × 4 × 6²)/144

4800 = k

The equation becomes

M = 4800wh²/L

c) if L = 10ft(10 × 12 = 120 inches),

h = 10 inches

w = 3 inches, then

M = 4800 × 3 × 10²/120

M = 12000 lbs
