Answer:

Width = 25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

W = L - 20

P = 140

Hence,

140 = 2L + 2(L - 20)

140 = 2L + 2L - 40

Collect like terms

140 + 40 = 4L

180 = 4L

L = 180/40

L = 45 feet

Length = 45 feet

Width = L - 20 feet

=( 45 - 20) feet

= 25 feet

Hey square piano has an area of 200 ft.² how long is each side of the piano to the nearest 0.05
sergey [27]
Since all sides of the square are equal, therefore area of square can be calculated using the following rule:
area of square = side^2
200 = (side length)^2
therefore,
the length of each side is sqrt(200) = 14.14 ft

3/4 of a number minus -16 equals 28. What is the number ?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The number is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 n- (-16) = 28

3/4 n + 16 = 28

Subtract 16 from each side

3/4 n +16-16 = 28-16

3/4 n =12

Multiply by 4/3 to isolate n

4/3 * 3/4 n = 12 * 4/3

n = 16
