Answer:

Width of rectangular piece = x = 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangular piece = 62 inches

Let width of rectangular piece= x

and length of rectangular piece = x+15

We need to find width i.e value of x

The formula used for perimeter of rectangle is: $Perimeter=2(Length+Width)\\$

Putting values in formula and finding Width:

$Perimeter=2(Length+Width)\\\\62=2(x+x+15)\\62=2(2x+15)\\62=4x+30\\62-30=4x\\4x=32\\x=\frac{32}{4}\\x=8$

After solving we get value of x = 8

So, Width of rectangular piece = x = 8 inches

What is the answer meyn?

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

the best value is two 50 ml bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay focus with me , if you buy a bottle of 50 ml you will get a second for half price so we can say that --> 2 bottles of 50 ml =

$45 + \frac{45}{2} = 67.5$

We get 100 ml with £67.5 just , but when you buy 80ml you must pay £55 Hum !

then you can dived the volume of bottle with price ...

the price of one ml is 0.675 in first State

$\frac{67.5}{100 } = 0.675$

in the second state the price of one ml is

$\frac{55}{80} = 0.6875$

then :

$0.675 < 0.6875$

so the best value is two 50 ml bottles

Can 12,18,30 be a right triangle

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A set of three integers that can be the lengths of the sides of a right triangle is called a Pythagorean triple. The simplest Pythagorean triple is the set “3, 4, 5.” These numbers are the lengths of the sides of a “3-4-5” Pythagorean right triangle. The list below contains all of the Pythagorean triples in which no number is greater than 50.

3, 4, 5

5, 12, 13 6, 8, 10

7, 24, 25 8, 15, 17 9, 12, 15 9, 40, 41 10, 24, 26 12, 16, 20 12, 35, 37

14, 48, 50 15, 20, 25 15, 36, 39 16, 30, 34 18, 24, 30 20, 21, 29 21, 28, 35 24, 32, 40 27, 36, 45 30, 40, 50

Example Problems

From the list above, the missing From the list above, the missing side is “5” side is “24”

Show why the set “6,8,10” is a Pythagorean triple.

c2 = a2 + b2 102 =82 +62 100 = 64 + 36 100 = 100

Since the Pythagorean equation is satisfied, the set “6,8,10” is a Pythagorean triple.
