Mathematics

Answer:

5.20  to the nearest hundredth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude line bisects the base of the triangle to form 2 right  angled triangles with hypotenuse = 6 and the base = 3.

So,  by the Pythagoras theorem the altitude is  calculated as follows:

6^2 = 3^2 + x^2

x^2 = 36 - 9 = 27

x = √27

= 5.20  to the nearest hundredth.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 64 units. Can the length x of the rectangle can be 20 units when its width y is 11 units?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
B. No, the rectangle cannot have x = 20 and y = 11 because x + y ≠ 32

Perimeter = 2(l + w)
Perimeter = 64

Assuming: P = 64; w = 11 ; l = ?
64 = 2(l + 11)
64/2 = l + 11
32 - 11 = l
length = 21.

The area of a rectangular flower bed is 24 square feet. The perimeter of the same flower bed is 22 feet. What are the dimensions
Ray Of Light [21]

ANSWER

B. 3 ft by 8 ft

EXPLANATION

The area is given as 24 square feet.

This implies that,

l \times w = 24

The perimeter of the rectangular field is given as 22 feet.

This implies that,

2(l + w) = 22

Or

l + w = 11

We make w the subject in this last equation and put it inside the first equation.

w = 11 - l

When we substitute into the first equation we get;

l(11 - l) = 24

11l -  {l}^{2}  = 24

This implies that,

{l}^{2}  - 11l + 24 = 0

(l - 3)(l - 8) = 24

l = 3 \: or \: 8

When l=3, w=24

Therefore the dimension is 3 ft by 8 ft
