A rectangle has a perimeter of 58. The width is 7 less than the length. Find the length

Mathematics
1 answer:
Marianna [84]3 years ago

Answer:

Length = 18 Width = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width)

So let's label the unknown length as x. Width would then be (x-7). Then plug it into the perimeter equation.

2(x) + 2(x-7) = 58

Then use PEMDAS which will give us

2x+2x-14 = 58

Combine like terms

4x -14 = 58

Add 14 to both sides

4x = 72

To get x by itself you have to divide both sides by 4.

x = 18

So length is 18 and width is (18-7) which is 11.

Answer:

The height of the cone-shaped cup is 6 inches and the diameter at the top is 3 inches. ... To find the volume of the cone, you use a formula similar to that of a pyramid, ... \begin{align*}V & = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h \\ V & = \frac{1}{3} (3.14)(5^2 )(7) ... The answer is the volume of the cone is 183.16 cubic inches.

AB = 6 cm, AC = 12 cm, CD = ?

In triangle ABC, ∠CBA = 90°, therefore in triangle BCD ∠CBD = 90° also.

Since ∠BDC = 55°, ∠CBD = 90°, and there are 180 degrees in a triangle, we know ∠DCB = 180 - 55 - 90 = 35°

In order to find ∠BCA, use the law of sines:
 
sin(∠BCA)/BA = sin(∠CBA)/CA
sin(∠BCA)/6 cm = sin(90)/12 cm
sin(∠BCA) = 6*(1)/12 = 0.5
∠BCA = arcsin(0.5) = 30° or 150°
We know the sum of all angles in a triangle must be 180°, so we choose the value 30° for ∠BCA

Now add ∠BCA (30°) to ∠DCB = 35° to find ∠DCA.
∠DCA = 30 + 35 = 65°

Since triangle DCA has 180°, we know ∠CAD = 180 - ∠DCA - ∠ADC = 180 - 65 - 55 = 60°

In triangle DCA we now have all three angles and one side, so we can use the law of sines to find the length of DC.

12cm/sin(∠ADC) = DC/sin(∠DCA)
12cm/sin(55°) = DC/sin(60°)
DC = 12cm*sin(60°)/sin(55°)
DC = 12.686 cm

Suppose babies born in a large hospital have a mean weight of 4088 grams, and a variance of 55,696. Of 128 babies are sampled at
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

P = 0.9893

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean weight of the babies born is 4088 and a variance of 55696

This is a sampling question with sample size, n = 128

To find the probability that the mean weight 4088 is greater than 4132

Therefore, probability is given as

P = 4088/4132

P = 0.9893

Use rounding or compatible numbers to estimate the sum of 63+71
wolverine [178]
60 + 70 = 130  (approx.)

Closer:

(60+70) + (3+1) = (130) + (4) = 134 (exact.)
