The length of a rectangle is 3 ft longer than its width.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kruka [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

A = 108 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width is b.

Length = 3+b

Perimeter of the rectangle, P = 42 ft

Perimeter = 2(l+b)

42 = 2 (3+b+b)

21 = (3+2b)

21-3 = 2b

18 = 2b

b = 9 feet

Length, l = 3+9 = 12 feet

Area of the rectangle,

A = lb

So,

A = 12 × 9

A = 108 feet²

So, the area of the rectangle is 108 feet².

Which is not an equation of the line going through (6, 7) and (2, –1)?
garri49 [273]
Answer - D.

you basically find the equation of the line first and eliminate the wrong answers...

Strategy:  before u do any of this, label your coordinates as (X1,Y1) and (X2,Y2) and u can choose any of ur points to be as x1 or x2 or y1 or y1...
basically, I'll choose (6,7) as (x1,y1) and (2,-1) as (x2,y2). SO,

First you have to  find the gradient (m) of the line.
  you do this by using the formula m = Y2-Y1 / X2-X1 (where '/' is division sign) ....
Put the numbers in their respective places and your gradient will be 2x. we put the x after our number to represent it as a gradient as the straight line formula is y = mx+c and you've found the m.
NOW.
use the formula Y-Y1=m(x-x1) to find the equation of the line.Again u can use any Y1 and X1 here but remember your m is 2

replace the digits and solve...Hopefully you'll get sth like this if you use the points (6,7):
Y-7 = 2(x-6) ....
y=2x-12+7...
Y=2x-5! <<<< this is your straight line equation!
Now all u gotta do is rearrange all your options into y = mx+c.
D. is incorrect as it gives us y=2x+5 and not y = 2x-5 unlike the others 
 

Hope you get it!

Alika [10]

Answer:

41.92%

Step-by-step explanation:

In table attached standard normal distribution curve is shown.

Data

mean, µ = 4.3 minutes

standard deviation, σ = 0.5 minutes

desired point, x = 5 minutes

x-axis, Z = (x - µ)/σ

The probability that calls last between 4.3 and 5.0 minutes is equivalent to find the area below the curve between Z = 0 and Z = (5 - 4.3)/0.5 = 1.4, which is 0.4192, or 41.92%

a circle with a radius of 3 has a sector with a central angle of 1/9 pi radians. What is the area of the sector?
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

The area of the sector is  \frac{\pi}{2}\ units^2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of complete circle

A=\pi r^2

we have

r=3\ units

substitute

A=\pi 3^2

A=9\pi\ units^2

step 2

Find the area of the sector

we know that

The area of complete circle subtends a central angle of 2π radians

so

using proportion

Find out the area of a sector by a central angle of 1/9 pi radians

\frac{9\pi}{2\pi}=\frac{x}{\frac{1}{9}\pi} \\\\x=9\pi(\frac{1}{9}\pi})/2\pi\\\\x=\frac{\pi}{2}\ units^2
