Answer:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of both lengths and both widths, which is equal to 54 meters. Let's call Length L and Width W.

The question is saying this: L = 3 meters + 3(W). We have 2 variables, which means we need at least 2 equations to solve. So far we have one, our second equation is from the perimeter.

2 lengths + 2 Widths = 54. Now, it's just a plug and chug.

2(3 + 3W) + 2W = 54.

6 + 6W + 2W = 54

8W = 48

W=6

L = 3 + 3(6) = 21

To double check: 2(21) + 2(6) = 42 + 12 = 54

The Width is 6 meters, and the Length is 21 meters.

How to factorize -3pa-9b-18pc
Fed [463]
-3pa - 9b - 18pc

For starters, you know that you can't take away any of the letters from the equation because none of the three have the exact same letter; however, they all have something they can be divided by and that is -3. 

It would be -3 instead of just 3 because the equation itself starts with a negative. (you could probably do it anyways with just 3, but you'd end up taking out a negative one, anyways, so what's the point?)

Now, you would have: -3 ( pa + 3b + 6pc )

That is truly all you can take out. So, that would end up being your answer since all you can really do is simplify.

<span>question 1
Add or subtract. 
4m2 − 10m3 − 3m2 + 20m3
=(4m2-3m2)+(20m3-10m3)
=m2+10m3

the answer is the option
</span><span>B: m2 + 10m3

</span><span>Question 2: 
Subtract. (9a3 + 6a2 − a) − (a3 + 6a − 3)
=(9a3-a3)+(6a2)+(-a-6a)+(-3)
=8a3+6a2-7a-3

the answer is the option
</span><span>B: 8a3 + 6a2 − 7a + 3 

</span><span>Question 3: 
A company distributes its product by train and by truck. The cost of distributing by train can be modeled as −0.06x2 + 35x − 135, and the cost of distributing by truck can be modeled as −0.03x2 + 29x − 165, where x is the number of tons of product distributed. Write a polynomial that represents the difference between the cost of distributing by train and the cost of distributing by truck. 


we have that
[</span>the cost of distributing by train]-[the cost of distributing by truck]
=[−0.06x2 + 35x − 135]-[−0.03x2 + 29x − 165]
<span>=(-0.06x2+0.03x2)+(35x-29x)+(-135+165)

What two formulas are necessary to find the area of a segment of a circle? i will name brainliest!!!!!!!
NeTakaya
The necessary formulas to get the area of a circle’s segment are the area of the circle’s sector and the triangle it is bounded by. 

Hence the formula for the segment’s area is:Area of Segment = Area of sector – area of the triangle.

The formula of the area of a circle’s sector is:Area of Sector = \frac{central-angle}{2} x (radius of circle)²

While the formula for the area of a triangle is:Area of Triangle = \frac{1}{2} x base of triangle x height of triangle

A group of 18 people ordered soup and sandwiches for lunch. Each person in the group had either one soup or one sandwich. The sa
Minchanka [31]
Lets do this:-

A. 7 Sandwiches

18 - 7 = 11

7 × $7.75 =  $54.25
7 sandwiches cost $54.25.

11 × $4.50 = $49.50
11 soups costs $49.50

49.50 + 54.25 = 103.75
A is not d answer cuz d total of d lunches came to $113.50. 

B. 8 sandwiches

18 - 8 = 10

8 × $7.75 =  $62
8 sandwiches cost $62.

10 × $4.50 = 45
8 soups costs $45

62 + 45 = 107

B is not d answer cuz d total of d lunches came to $113.50. 

C. 9 Sandwiches.

18 - 9 =  9

9 × $7.75 = 69.75
9 sandwiches cost $69.

9 × $4.50 = 40.50
9 soups costs $40.50

69 + 40.50 = 109.5

C is not d answer cuz d total of d lunches came to $113.50. 

D. 10 Sandwiches

18 - 10 = 8

10 × $7.75 = $77.75
10 sandwiches cost $77.75.

8 × $4.50 = $36
8 soups costs $36.

77.75 + 36 = <span>113.75

</span>D is not d answer cuz d total of d lunches came to $113.50. 

So, based on your answer choices there is no correct choice. <span />
