So if we think of a test tube, it looks sort of like a cylinder. This means that its cross-section would be a circle. To find out how many turns a piece of thread would make around the test tube, we need to find the circumference of the test tube, then divide the length of the string by the circumference.

Step 1) Find the circumference

C = pi x diameter

C = 3.14 x 3

C = 9.42

Step 2) Divide the length of the string by the circumference

90.42 / 9.42 = 9.5987

The string would make approximately 9.60 turns around the test tube.

Hope this helps!! :)

Let
x-------> the width of the rectangular area
y------> the length of the rectangular area

we know that
y=x+15------> equation 1
perimeter of a rectangle=2*[x+y]
2x+2y <= 150-------> equation 2

substitute 1 in 2
2x+2*[x+15] <=150--------> 2x+2x+30 <=150----> 4x <=150-30
4x <= 120---------> x <= 30
the width of the rectangular area is at most 30 ft
y=x+15
for x=30
y=30+15------> y=45
the length of the rectangular area is at most 45 ft

see the attached figure
the solution is<span> the shaded area</span>
