Answer:

Length = 10.435 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be l

Let the width be w

Since the length is 9 inches more than half the width.

Then;

L = 0.5w + 9

Perimeter of a rectangle is;

P = 2Lw

Thus;

P = 2w(0.5w + 9)

Since perimeter = 60

Then;

2w(0.5w + 9) = 60

w² + 18w = 60

w² + 18w - 60 = 0

From quadratic formula;

w ≈ 2.87 in

L = 0.5(2.87) + 9

L = 10.435 in

What is the radius of a circle with an area of 78.5 cubic inches? Use 3.14 for pi. Enter your answer in the box.
UkoKoshka [18]

\bf \textit{area of a circle}\\\\ A=\pi r^2~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ A=78.5 \end{cases}\implies 78.5=\pi r^2\implies \cfrac{78.5}{\pi }=r^2 \\\\\\ \sqrt{\cfrac{78.5}{\pi }}=r\implies 4.9987\approx r

prohojiy [21]
First 700-25=675

Poppy= 2F (F as in Felix, since she sells twice as much)
Alex = (Now equals 2F as well, cus we already took away the 25)
And well.... Felix is just felix so add that all up

F+F+F+F+F=5F

675/5=135!
Now according to that 135 is how many felix sold

Felix=135
Poppy=270
Alex=295
