Answer:

20 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the width of the sign is x, then from the question, we're told that the length is 5 times it's width, so

b = x inches

l = 5x inches

Again, we're told that the perimeter of the sign is 24 inches, and we know already that the perimeter of a rectangle is given as

Perimeter = 2(l + b), substituting this, we have

24 = 2(5x + x)

24 = 10x + 2x

24 = 12x

x = 24 / 12

x = 2 inches.

Since x is the width of the rectangle, and it's 2 inches, we use it to find the length of the sign.

l = 5 * 2

l = 10 inches.

Then, we are asked to find the area of the sign. Area of a rectangle is given as

A = l * b, so if we substitute, we have

Area = 10 * 2

Area = 20 square inches

Which inequality represents the following sentence?
Murrr4er [49]
<span>x – 12 ≥ 18 Let's break down the sentence and create an inequality from it. We'll use X to represent the number. "Twelve fewer than a number is at least 18." The "Twelve fewer than a number" indicates subtraction, so let's do that. X - 12 "is at least 18." would be a greater than or equal relationship. So we have X - 12 ≥ 18 And we're done. The desired equation is: x – 12 ≥ 18</span>

zaharov [31]

Answer:

As shown in picture, the area is divided into 4 parts: 3 triangles and 1 rectangles.

Total area:

A = smallest triangle + medium triangle + largest triangle + rectangle

   = 2 x 2 x 1/2 + 2 x 6 x 1/2 + 4 x (2 + 2 + 6) x 1/2 + 2 x 2

   = 2 + 6 + 20 + 4

   = 32

Hope this helps!
