The length of a rectangle is one inch less than three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 118 inches, find the

IgorLugansk [536]

We can set up the width a X and, from the description the length would be 3X-1. The perimeter of a rectangle is determined by 2XL + 2Xw. Plugging into the equation 2(3X-1) + 2(X) = 118. Next distribute to get 6X-2 + 2X = 118. Combine like terms to get 8X = 120. Divide by 8 to get X = 15. The width is 15. The length is 3(15)-1 or 44. 88 +30 = 118

The wheels on Darlene's car have on 11-inch radius. If the wheels are rotating at a rate of 378 rpm, find the linear speed in mi

elena-s [515]

Answer:

The linear speed in which Darlene is traveling is 24.74 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The wheel experiments rolling, which is a combination of translation and rotation. The point where linear speed happens is located at geometrical center of the wheel and instantaneous center of rotation is located at the point of contact between wheel and ground. The linear speed ( $v$ ), measured in inches per second, is defined by following expression:

$v = R\cdot \omega$ (1)

Where:

$R$ - Radius of the wheel, measured in inches.

$\omega$ - Angular speed, measured in radians per second.

If we know that $R = 11\,in$ and $\omega \approx 39.584\,\frac{rad}{s}$ , then the linear speed, measured in miles per hour, in which Darlene is traveling is:
