5 0

Answer:

105 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

You first add 5 and 7 which gives you 12. Then, since two supplementary angles add up to 180, you divide 180 by 12 which gives you 15. Next, since 7 is the larger of the two, multiply 7 by 15 giving you 105. To check your work, subtract 105 from 180 giving you 75. Next, put this as a fraction- 75/105 and simplify giving you 5/7 which can also be written as 5:7.

7. Which dimensions result in the minimum perimeter for a rectangle with area 42.0 cm2?

Answer:

7. d. l = 6.48 cm, w = 6.48 cm

8. d. square

Step-by-step explanation:

For a given area, the perimeter can always be shortened by reducing the length of the long side and increasing the length of the short side. When you get to the point where you can't do that, then you have the minimum perimeter. You will reach that point when the sides are the same length: the rectangle is a square.

7. In light of the above, the best dimensions are √42 ≈ 6.48 cm for length and width.

8. In light of the above, the shape is a square.

_____

The attached graph shows the length of one side (x) and the associated perimeter. The other side is 42/x, which will also be 6.48.
