The length is 18 cm and the width is 9cm

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = length

Then width = (1/2)x

Perimeter = 2(length) + 2(width) = 54

                  length + width = 27

So, x + (1/2)x = 27

           (3/2)x = 27

                 x = 27(2/3) = 18     (1/2)x = 9

Answer:  length = 18 cm and width = 9 cm

Gnesinka [82]
It would be B (530.7) because if you do 3.14 x 13 x 13 (Or to the second power) Then you get 530.66, the round to the nearest tenths

The function y=40x describes how far from home Shu Ling is as she drives from Dallas to Miami. Graph the function. Use the graph
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

You can see the graph below.

To answer the question, you need to draw a vertical line from x = 12h up, until the line meets with the line.

Once the line meets with the line, draw a horizontal line from that point, and the value where this line intersects with the y-axis will be the distance from home after 12 hours.

The graph is kinda hard to read because the line is really steep, the green line is the equation y = 40*x

the red line is a line at x = 12

The black dashed line is the horizontal line that intersects with the y-axis.

In the graph, you can see that the dashed line intersects the y-axis at around y = 475.

Then a good estimate is that the distance after 12 hours is 475 (miles).

Now, we can compare this with the direct calculation, just replace x by 12 in the given line:

y = 40*12 = 480.

So our estimation is really accurate.

Samuel used 1/5 of an ounce of butter to make 1/15 of a pound of jelly. How many ounces of butter are needed to make a pound of
vredina [299]
Set up ratio problem

.2 oz butter / (1/15) lb jelly = x / 1 lb jelly

Then cross multiply the stuff opposite each other in the fractions... set it up as a multiplication problem

.2 × 1  = (1/15) × x 

.2 = (1/15)x

Multiply both sides of equation by 15 to clear out the (1/15) fraction and get x 

x = 3
