Answer: The length of the rectangle is 37.5 inches and the width is 12.5 inches
Step-by-step explanation: The dimensions of the rectangle is not given but we have clues given. The length is given as three times it’s width which means if the width is W, then the length would be given as 3W (three times the width). Also the perimeter is given as 100 inches and the formula for the perimeter is;
Perimeter = 2(L + W)
We can now insert the known values as follows;
100 = 2(3W + W)
100 = 2(4W)
100 = 8W
Divide both sides of the equation by 8
12.5 = W
Having calculated the width as 12.5 inches, the length now becomes
L = 3W
L = 3 x 12.5
L = 37.5
Hence the length is 37.5 inches and the width is 12.5 inches
That sequence is not geometric or arithmetic
it is not changing or doing anything it is just remaining the same.
it would be geometric if it was:
1+1-1+1-1+1........
So there's 5 body types each with 4 colors. 5x4 is 20. For each of these 20 cars there is 3 kinds of upholstery. 20x3 is 60. Therefore, the dealer would need a minimum of 60 cars to show his complete line. Hope this helped!
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
The contiguous U.S. consist of all states beside Alaska and Hawaii; therefore, there are 48 contiguous U.S. states. However, the ratio given to us only consists of 16 states [7 + 9 = 16]. If we need to expand the ratio, we multiply 16 by 3 to get 48. Thus, we also multiply each of the terms by 3, and the ratio becomes 21:27. Therefore, the number of contiguous U.S. states that border an ocean is 21.
