The formula of an area of a recangle:

A = lw

We have A = 32 yd² and l = w + 4.

Substitute:

(w + 4)w = 32    <em>use distributive property</em>

(w)(w) + (4)(w) = 32

w² + 4w = 32      <em>subtract 32 from both sides</em>

w² + 4w - 32 = 0

w² + 8w - 4w - 32 = 0

w(w + 8) - 4(w + 8) = 0

(w + 8)(w - 4) = 0 ↔ w + 8 = 0 ∨ w - 4 = 0

w = -8 < 0 ∨ w = 4

l = w + 4 → l = 4 + 4 = 8

w = 4 yd and l = 8 yd.

The formula of a perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2(l + w)

Substitute:

P = 2(8 + 4) = 2(12) = 24

<h3>Answer: The perimeter = 24 yd</h3>

Use the left and right triangles. (the two smaller ones -- ACD and BCD)
By similar triangles ACD is similar to BCD
on the left AD/CD is one ratio
On the right CD/DB is the other. These two ratios are equal because they are corresponding parts.

AD / CD = CD / DB
AD = 3
DB = 12
CD = ??
Substitute.
3/CD = CD/12 Cross multiply
36 = CD^2
sqrt(36) = sqrt(CD^2)
CD = 6 <<<<==== Answer.
A <<<<====Answer.

$800 is invested at a rate of 7%. What will be the total amount of the investment after 3 1/2 years?
torisob [31]

Answer:

A = $996.00

Step-by-step explanation:

(I = A - P = $196.00)

Equation:

A = P(1 + rt)

Where:

A = Total Accrued Amount (principal + interest)

P = Principal Amount

I = Interest Amount

r = Rate of Interest per year in decimal; r = R/100

R = Rate of Interest per year as a percent; R = r * 100

t = Time Period involved in months or years

From the base formula, A = P(1 + rt) derived from A = P + I and I = Prt so A = P + I = P + Prt = P(1 + rt)

Calculation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 7%/100 = 0.07 per year.

Solving our equation:

A = 800(1 + (0.07 × 3.5)) = 996

A = $996.00

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from simple interest on a principal of $800.00 at a rate of 7% per year for 3.5 years is $996.00.
