Answer:

CD = 18 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a rectangle with length x and width y, the perimeter is:

P = 2x + 2y

Here, we note that x = AB = CD, y = AD = BC, and P = 64 units. So:

2AB + 2BC = 64

We know that AB = 3z and BC = 2z + 2; plug these in:

2 * (3z) + 2 * (2z + 2) = 64

6z + 4z + 4 = 64

10z = 60

z = 6

Now that we've solved for z, we can find AB and, hence, CD because AB = CD.

AB = 3z = 3 * 6 = 18 units

Thus, CD = 18 units, as well.

A rectangle has a length that is 9 feet less than four times its width. Its area is 90 square feet

kramer

Answer:

The length of rectangle is $15\ ft$

The width of rectangle is $6\ ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the length of rectangle

y----> the width of rectangle

we know that

The area of rectangle is equal to

$A=xy$

$A=90\ ft^{2}$

$90=xy$ -----> equation A

$x=4y-9$ -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

$90=(4y-9)y$

$4y^{2}-9y-90=0$

using a graphing calculator

The solution is

$y=6\ ft$

Find the value of x

$x=4y-9$ -----> $x=4(6)-9=15\ ft$

The volume of a cone is 1/3 that of a cylinder when the radius and height are the same (v= 1/3(pi)(r)^2(h). What is the volume o

Ira Lisetskai [31]

$\mathfrak{\huge{\pink{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}$

Actually Welcome to the Concept of the Surface Areas and Volumes.

Since, Volume of cone = 1/3 π r^2 h,

here, r = 10 Inches and h= 12 inches, also π =3.14

so, VOC = 1/3 π (10)^2 × (20)

VOC = 1/3(3.14)(100)(20)= 2093.33 inch^3

=> so the volume of the cone is 2093.33 cubic inches.
