Area of a triangle:
A (triangle )= 4 · 6 / 2 = 12 ft²
150 - 12 = 138 ft² ( the maximum area of the rectangle )
L = ?
W = 6 ft
A ( rectangle ) = L · W
L · 6 = 138
L = 138 : 6 = 23 ft.
Answer: the maximum length of the base of the rectangle he can build is 23 ft.
I think that is is 8.3, but I could be incorrect!
Answer: a=1.4
Step-by-step explanation:
move the 0.1a to the other and the 7 to the other side which will make the 7 positive and the 0.1a negative.
5a-0.1= 4.9a
-0.14+7=6.86
dive both sides by 4.9 and you get
a=1.4
Answer:
Distributive?
Step-by-step explanation:
The way the problem is laid out confuses me but if it is the problem that you laid out, it should be Distributive.
Answer:
17.5 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given
The perimeter of a rectangle is 53 inches
let the two shorter sides be the width w
so w+w= 18in
the two longer sides is L
L+L=2l
Step two:
but the expression for the perimeter of a rectangle is
P=2W+2L
53= 18+2L
53-18=2L
35=2L
divide both sides by 1
L=35/2
L=17.5
