(12 gal)/5 = 2.4 gal
Each camper used 2.4 gallons of water.
Given:
W(width) = (6L) - 9
L(length) = L
Equation:
2( [ 6L ] - 9) + 2 (L) = 150
= 12L - 18 + 2L = 150
= 12L + 2L = 150 + 18
=14L = 168
L = 168/14, so the length is 12. Let's check our work.
Width: 6(12) - 9 = 72 - 9 = 63
Length: 12
Since there are two lines of width and two lines of length:
2(12) + 2(63) = 24 + 126, which gives you a perimeter of 150 mm.
Hope this helped.
Answer:
Draw a line AB
Take a point C on AB
Fix the tip of compass at C and with a fix radius, cut AB on both sides of C
Mark those points D and E
Fix the tip of compass on D, and with the same radius, draw an arc above C
Do the same with E
Those two arcs will intersect at a point, mark the point F
Make a line passing through both C and F
Line CF is perpendicular to AB
This answer is most likely wrong, but this is what I had gotten.
Using the formula BxH divided by 2, I came up with an answer of 108.
