Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter of rectangle = 1100
let breadth be x
length = 300 + x
perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)
1100 = 2(300 + x + x)
1100 = 2(300 + 2x)
1100 = 600 + 4x
1100 - 600 = 4x
500 = 4x
500/4 = x
125 = x
therefore breadth is 125 feet
length = 300 + 125
=425 feet
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can start by making the table below to show the given numbers (red) and to assign a variable (x) to <em>the number we want to find: female PhDs</em>.
By subtracting the female numbers from the totals, we can find the corresponding numbers of male PhDs and non-PhDs.
The number of male non-PhDs is twice the number of male PhDs, so we have ...
2(14 -x) = 20 -x
28 -2x = 20 -x . . . . eliminate parentheses
8 = x . . . . . . . . . . . .add 2x-20
The number of female faculty with PhDs is 8.
Answer:
b=7
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug 3 into a since a=3.
2(3)+b=13
Then solve for 2(3)
6+b=13
Now isolate the b, so move the 6 to the other side. (Basically subtract 6 from both sides)
b=13-6
b=7
