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.

35% of the students at charles drew middle school are 6th graders if there are 84 sixth graders what is the total number of stud
Juliette [100K]

Answer: The total number of student in the school  = 240.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total number of students in the school.

Given: 35% of the students at Charles drew middle school are 6th graders.

i.e. Number of sixth graders = 35% of x = 0.35x   [35% = 0.35]

Since there are 84 sixth graders in the school,

So  0.35x=84

Divide both sides by 0.35, we get

x=\dfrac{84}{0.35}=\dfrac{84\times100}{35}=240

Hence, the total number of student in the school  = 240.

ziro4ka [17]

Change 4 feet to inches.

You need to know that for every feet, there are 12 inches. So, if you have 4 feet, you just multiply 4 by 12 and you will get 48 inches. Note that the feet unit is larger than inches.

Answer:

Standard Form: 47.9

Scientific Notation Form: 4.79 x 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1.2 x 106 = 127.2

1.7 x 103 = 175.1

175.1 - 127.2 = 47.9

47.9 = 4.79 x 10

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

factored form actually contains the x intercepts right in it. Basically whatever sets the whole equation equal to zero.

On the graph you can see that it passes through both positive and negative 4. so (x+4)(x-4) is the answer because plugging in 4 for x will make it zero. Same for plugging in negative 4

Hope this helps!
