Answer:

W=7 L= 16

Step-by-step explanation:

you start off with

   P=2L+2W   (the equation to find perimeter)

the equation gives you the perimeter = 46

so you plug that in

     46=2L +2W

then it says the length IS (which also means equals) 9 plus the width

so you then get another equation:

    L=9+W

you take that and plus it into the first equation/ substitute the new equation for L in the first equation

     46=2(9+W)+2W

you solve that and get

   w=7

you plus the 7 in for the w

L=9+7 = 1

W=7 L=16

If the perimeter is 168 and the width is 6 feet longer than thr length what are the dimensions
Ksenya-84 [330]

\bf \textit{perimeter of a rectangle}\\\\ P=2(L+w)~~ \begin{cases} L=length\\ w=width\\ ----------\\ P=168\\ w=\stackrel{\textit{6 feet longer than L}}{L+6} \end{cases}\implies 168=2(L+\stackrel{w}{L+6}) \\\\\\ 84=2L+6\implies 78=2L\implies \cfrac{78}{2}=L\implies \boxed{39=L} \\\\\\ w=39+6\implies \boxed{w=45}

find the length of the base of a square pyramid if the volume is 1,024 cubic inches and has a height of 12 inches. (6 points) 4
Leokris [45]
To solve, we use the volume of a square pyramid formula which is expressed as the product of the area of the base (a²) and the height divided by three(h/3).

Volume = a² (h/3)
1024 in³ = (a²) (12 in/3)
a² = 1024 in³ · 3 /12
a = √256 in²
a = 16 in

Thus, the length of the base is 16 in.
