Answer:
D. 5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 5.4 can't be 'cause the shade did not reach 5 on number line.
B. 5 - 4 = 1 can'e be 'cause it pass 1.
C. 4 / 5 = 0.8 can't be 'cause its less than the shade.
D. 5 / 4 = 1.25 correct
1.)Convert into Proportion: 3.5/1.7=x/36.5
2.)Cross Multiply: 1.7x=127.75
3.)Simplify and Solve: x=75.14
x=75.14m tall
I also think its 4 but im not sure
Recall the formula for finding the area of a rectangle:
Area = Length × Width
Recall the formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle:
Perimeter = 2 ( Length + Width )
Given in your problem:
Area = 40 sq. units
Perimeter = 26 units
Required to solve for:
Length (L) and width (W)
• First, substitute the given to the formula:
Area = Length x Width
40 = L × W ⇒ equation number 1
Perimeter = 2 ( Length + Width )
26 = 2 ( L + W ) ⇒ equation number 2
• Simplifying equation number 2,
13 = L + W
• Rearranging the equation,
L = 13 - W ⇒ equation 3
Substituting equation 3 from equation 1:
( equation 1 ) 40 = (L)(W)
( equation 3 ) L = 13 - W
40 = (13 - W) (W)
40 = 13W - W²
( regrouping ) W² - 13W + 40 = 0
( factoring ) (W - 8) (W - 5) = 0
W - 8 = 0 ; W - 5 = 0
W = 8 ; W = 5
Therefore, there are 2 possible values for the width of the rectangle. It can be 8 units or 5 units.
• Now to solve for the length of the rectangle, substitute the two values of width to equation 3.
(equation 3) L = 13 - W
for W = 8 ⇒ L = 13 - 8
L = 5 units
for W = 5 ⇒ L = 13 - 5
L = 8 units
