l = 2w - 4

Because we're solving for 2l + 2w, that can be simplified to

2(2w - 4) + 2w = 34

4w - 8 + 2w = 34

6w - 8 = 34

6w = 42

w = 7

Knowing this, we can input w:

2(7) + 2l = 34

14 + 2L = 34

2l = 20

l = 10

L = 10, W = 7, Option C

To begin to solve this question, we need to express the lengths in terms of width of the width in terms of length. Since the question says that the length was 4 centimeters less than twice the width, that means that the length is equal to 4 centimeters less (minus) twice the width (times two). That means that l = 2w - 4. We also know that the perimeter is 34cm.

The formula for the area of a rectangle is 2l + 2w, or 2(2w - 4) + 2w. Since the perimeter is 34, that means that:

4w - 8 + 2w = 34

Combining like terms and moving the numbers to the other side, we get:

6w = 42

w = 7

Plugging in the value of w in the formula for the length, we get that l = 2 (7) - 4 = 14 - 4 = 10. That means that the correct answer is C.

18. The perimeter is simply √3 + √3 + √3 + √3 or 4√3cm, since the perimeter is just all sides added together. You could add the decimal numbers together using a calculator, which I'm not sure if you're supposed to do in your class.

The area is just width times length, so √3 • √3 = 3cm².

19. The perimeter is 2√5 + 2(9 - √5).

This can also be written as 2√5 + 18 - 2√5, which leaves you with a perimeter of 18ft.

The area would be √5 • (9 - √5), which leaves you with (9√5 - 5)ft².

20. The formula for the perimeter (or circumference) of a circle is π times the diameter of the circle. Using the radius of the circle, 1/π, the diameter is 2/π, so

π • 2/π = 2. The circumference of the circle is 2 inches.

The area of the circle is calculated with the equation πr², so

π(1/π)² = π • 1/(π²) = π/(π²) = π. The area is simply π in².

marin [14]

Answer:

in 630 minutes, the population of the bacteria  will  64,000

Step-by-step explanation:

current population of the bacteria = 8,000

and this population doubles every 210 minutes

0 (minute) ------------------------ 8,000 bacteria

210 + 0 (210 minutes) -------------------- 2 x 8,000 = 16,000 bacteria

210 + 210 ( 420 minutes) -------------------- 2 x 16,000 = 32,000 bacteria

420 + 210 (630 minutes) -------------------- 2 x 32,000 = 64,000 bacteria

Therefore, in 630 minutes, the population of the bacteria  will  64,000

uysha [10]

Answer:

set of related events, movements, or things that follow each other in a particular order.

Step-by-step explanation:

a sequence is an enumerated collection of objects in which repetitions are allowed and order matters. Like a set, it contains members (also called elements, or terms). The number of elements (possibly infinite) is called the length of the sequence.
