Answer:

Dimensions of the original rectangle:

Length = 19 cm

Width = 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Length = x

Width = y

Original rectangle:

2(Length + width) = 60

2x + 2y = 60

New rectangle has same length with original rectangle but half of the width of the original rectangle when folded

Length = x

Width = 1/2y

2(Length + 1/2width) = 49

2x + y = 49

2x + 2y = 60 (1)

2x + y = 49 (2)

Subtract (2) from (1) to eliminate x

2y - y = 60 - 49

y = 11

Substitute y = 11 into (2)

2x + y = 49

2x + 11 = 49

2x = 49 - 11

2x = 38

x = 38/2

x = 19

Dimensions of the original rectangle:

Length = 19 cm

Width = 11 cm

Part 2) Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In a Rhombus

Opposite angles are congruent, and consecutive angles are supplementary. All sides are congruent by definition. The diagonals bisect the angles

Part 1) What is the measure of angle  ?

-----> remember that the diagonals bisect the angles

Part 2) What is the measure of angle  ?

Remember that

In a rhombus consecutive angles are supplementary

so

The measure of angle  is equal to the measure of angle T divided by

First let us convert 0.01 into fraction:

\frac{y^{2}}{100}  -\frac{1}{4}

Now we convert 100 and 4 into perfect squares as follows:

(\frac{y}{10})^{2}-(\frac{1}{2})^{2}

Now we use the property of :

x^{2} -y^{2} =(x+y)(x-y)

(\frac{y}{10} +\frac{1}{2} ) (\frac{y}{10} -\frac{1}{2} )

Given,

Number of cartons in case of Scout cookies = 10 cartons

Number of boxes in carton of Scout cookies = 12 boxes

Amount earned on whole case = 10(12x)  dollars

To simplify the expression, we will multiply 10 by 12x

Amount earned on whole case = 120x dollars

Simplified expression: 120x dollars
