Sally is having a problem with her puppy leaving the yard so she decides to build a new fence. The length of the yard is 10 feet
Cerrena [4.2K]

The length of the yard is 25ft.

In order to find this we first need to set up variables for the length and the width. Since we don't know anything about the width, we'll set it as x. Then, we know the length is equal to ten more than three times the width. Since the width is x, we can write the length as 3x + 10. Now we can use the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle to solve for x.

2l + 2w = P

2(3x + 10) + 2(x) = 60

6x + 20 + 2x = 60

8x + 20 = 60

8x = 40

x = 5

Now that we have a value for x, we can plug into the length equation and find the length.

3x + 10

3(5) + 10

15 + 10

25

What is the surface area of a cone with a diameter of 28 cm. and height 22 cm in terms of Ï.
Svetlanka [38]

To find the surface area of a cone, use this formula.

pi (r) (r + [square root of h^2 plus r^2] )        substitute


h = height = 22                  r = radius = 28/2 = 14      [ ] = sq. root


pi (14) (14 + [ 22^2 + 14^2 ])                        solve exponents

pi (14) (14 + [484 + 196])                             add

pi (14) (14 + [680])                                       solve square root

pi (14) (14 + 2[170])                                     add

pi (14) (40.0768)                                         multiply

pi (561.075)  is about 561.1 rounded to nearest tenth


So the answer is C. 561.1pi cm^2

Karolina [17]

Answer:

$90.75

Step-by-step explanation:

First we convert kilograms to pounds.

1 kg = 2.2 lb

15 kg = 15 * 2.2 lb = 33 lb

Cost of shipping: $2.75/lb

Cost of shipping 33 lb: 33 lb * 2.75/lb = $90.75

Answer: $90.75
