Answer:

<h2>W=22.5in</h2><h2>L=25.5in</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

let the width be x

W=x

L=x+3

the perimeter= 96in

the expression for perimeter is

P=2L+2W

Step two:

substitute

96=2(x+3)+2(x)

solve for x

96=2x+6+2x

96=4x+6

96-6=4x

rearrange

4x=90

divide both sides by 4

x=90/4

x=22.5

The width W=22.5in

the length L=22.5+3

L=25.5in

A fire ranger stands atop an observation tower 70 feet above the ground and sees a fire in the distance. She measures the angle
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

103.78\:\mathrm{ft}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can form a right triangle where the distance between the ranger's current position and fire is the hypotenuse of the triangle. In a right triangle, the tangent of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by the hypotenuse.

Therefore, we have:

\tan 34^{\circ}=\frac{70}{x}, where x is the distance between the base of the tower and the fire.

Solving, we get:

x=\frac{70}{\tan 34^{\circ}}=103.779267796\approx \boxed{103.78\:\mathrm{ft}}

Given the expression

3x (1 -3) + 3.2

step one: let us work on the terms inside the bracket

3x (-2) + 3.2

Step two:

open the bracket

-6x+ 3.2

Hence the simplified expression is

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for area of a triangle :

<u><em>Area (triangle) = 1/2 × base × height</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

=============================================================

Solving :

<u>Triangle 1 (Top Left)</u>

⇒ Area = 1/2 × 11 × 3

⇒ Area = 33/2

⇒ Area = 16.5 in²

<u>Triangle 2 (Top Right)</u>

⇒ Area = 1/2 × 8 × 7.2

⇒ Area = 4 × 7.2

⇒ Area = 28.8 cm²

<u>Triangle 3 (Bottom Left)</u>

⇒ Area = 1/2 × (5.5 + 5) × 10.4

⇒ Area = 10.5 × 10.4

⇒ Area = 109.2 m²

<u>Triangle 4 (Bottom Right)</u>

⇒ Area = 1/2 × (2 + 7) × 5.5

⇒ Area =  9 × 2.75

⇒ Area = 24.75 in²

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the with equation y=6x+2? A.6 B.-6 C.-1/6 D.2
zhuklara [117]
The equation y = 6x + 2 is in the format which is called the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b where m = slope. Therefore the slope here is 6.
For the line perpendicular, the slope of it is a negative reciprocal from the original slope, that is m(perpendicular) = -1/m

Slope the line perpendicular is m(perpendicular) = -1/6. The answer is C.
