Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of a rectangle = 2×length + 2×width = 28 ft
width = length - 2
length = width + 2
2×(width + 2) + 2×width = 28
2×width + 4 + 2×width = 28
4×width + 4 = 28
4×width = 24
width = 6 ft
and the length is width + 2 = 6+2 = 8 ft.
Answer:
22.9 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Since b² = a² - c² where a = vertex of major axis, 2a = 50 yards the length of the major axis. So , a = 50/2 = 25 yards. c = focus of chamber = 10 yards from center and b = vertex of minor axis.
So, b = ±√(a² - c²)
= ±√(25² - 10²)
= ±√(625 - 100)
= ±√525
= ±22.91 yards
≅ ± 22.9 yards
Since b = length of minor axis from center of chamber = 22.91 yards. So, he should build the whisper chamber 22.9 yards out from the center of the chamber.
Answer:
0.3[x-2y] + 0.5x - y
Use the distributive property: a(b-c) = ab - ac
0.3x - 0.6y + 0.5x - y
Now, add/subtract all like terms
0.3x + 0.5x - 0.6y - y
0.8x - 1.6y
If you want, we can simplify that down further to:
0.8(x - 2y)
