Answer:
l = 16, w = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let l = length
Let w = width
Area = w * l
128 = w * l
w = 128/l
Perimeter = 2w + 2l
48 = 2w + 2l
48 = 2(128/l) +2l
48 = 256/l +2l
Multiply everything by l
48l = 256 + 2l^2
l^2 + 128 = 24l
l^2 + 128 -24l = 0
(l-16)(l-8)= 0
L = 16
L = 8
If you try them out, and test it, l = 16 would work:
2(16) + 256/16 = 48
32 + 16 =48
16 * 128/16 = 128
16 * 8= 128
128 = 128
Since I'm not sure if you are in advanced math or not, I will do it simple with guess and check
Try w is
1,600 800+800=1,600 this is your answer
Hi there! :)
4x + 5x + 12 = 6(x - 2)
Combine like terms and distribute the coefficient outside of the parenthesis:
9x + 12 = 6(x) + 6(-2)
9x + 12 = 6x - 12
Subtract 6x from both sides:
9x - 6x + 12 = 6x - 6x - 12
3x + 12 = -12
Subtract 12 from both sides:
3x + 12 - 12 = -12 - 12
3x = -24
Divide both sides by 3:
3x/3 = -24/3
x = -8.
Answer:
9 gallons of water per minute
Step-by-step explanation:
First identify what you know:
1) The pipe was flowing water for eight minutes.
2) In that eight minutes, 72 gallons of water came out.
So, if 72 gallons of water came out in eight minutes, how many gallons flowed out in a single minute? Well, assuming that the flow rate was consistent, then simply divide the total number of gallons that flowed out, by the number of minutes the pipe was open!
72/8 = 9
The pipe released 9 gallons of water per minute, thus resulting in 72 gallons of water in 8 minutes!
Hope this helps! :)
There would be about 0.82 lbs of candy in the jar.
