Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is

P =2(l+w)

The width is x-6

w = x-6

The length is 8 units longer than the width

l = w+8

l = x-6+8

l = x+2

We can substitute this into the equation for Perimeter, which is given as 40

40 = 2(x+2 + x-6)

Combine like terms

40 =2 (2x-4)

Divide by 2

40/2 = 2/2 (2x-4)

20 = 2x-4

Add 4 to each side

20+4 =2x-4+4

24 = 2x

Divide by 2

24/2 =2x/2

12=x

We want to know the length

l = x+2

l =12+2

l = 14

Trucks are delivering gravel to a construction site each truck hold 7.5 cubic yards of gravel. The weight of 1 cubic yard of gra
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]
The first thing you must do is to calculate the weight of the gravel (w) that the truck holds (7.5 yards³). So, you have:

 If the weight of 1 yard³ is 1.48 tons, then the weight of 7.5 yards³ is:

 w=7.5x1.48 tons
 w=11.1 tons

 The problem says that the gravel will be placed in containers that each hold 3.7 tons of gravel,so, If they need 1 cotainer to place 3.7 tons, how many containers they need to place 11.1 tons?

 1 container-------3.7 tons of gravel
                 x-------11.1 tons of gravel

 x=(11.1x1)/3.7
 x=11.1/3.7
 x=3 containers

 H<span>ow many containers of this size are needed to hold all the gravel from one truck?

 The answer is: 3 containers.

(X to the fourth power) squared equals
Viktor [21]

Answer:

(x^4)^2=x^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Because of the power of a power property, which states that (x^n)^m=x^{n\times{m}}, where m and n are real numbers, the expression you mentioned can be simplified by applying this property like this: (x^4)^2=x^{4\times2}=x^8

In triangle ABC, AB=10, BC=8, and angle B=30. In triangle KLJ, LJ=20, JK=16, and angle L=30. State whether the triangles are sim
Margaret [11]

Answer:

They are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC, the angle we are given is in between the two defined sides(AB and BC with angle B). If these triangles were similar, we would see this with the SAS postulate.

In triangle KLJ, the angle is not in between the two sides, so they are not similar according to any of these two postulates.
