Answer:

length = 32m, width= 16m

Step-by-step explanation:

l=2w

2(2w+w)=96

2(3w)=96

6w=96,w= 96/6 = 16m

l=2w=2x16=32m

Answer:

Width is 17, and length is 31

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is all the sides added up.

96 is our perimeter.

We can call the width x, so that the length would be x+14

We have two widths and two lengths, and we can make that into an equation.

2(x)+2(x+14)=96

4x+28=96

4x=68

x=17

So now, we know that the width is 17.

Add 14 to that, and you will get 32.

You can double check this.

17+17=34

31+31=62

34+62=96.

Hope it helped.

Lenox ironed 1/4 of the shirts over the weekend. She plans to split the remainder of the work equally over the next 5 evenings.
MrMuchimi

3/20, or 0.15 of the shirts each evening


1 - 1/4 = 3/4

(3/4) / 5 = (3/4) / (5/1) = (3/4) x (1/5) = 3/20 = 0.15

Solve the following quadratic equation 6x2 – 7x = 20
siniylev [52]

Answer:

<h2>x = 5/2 , x = - 4/3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

6x² - 7x - 20 = 0

Using method of factorization

Rewrite - 7x as a difference

That's

6x² + 8x - 15x - 20 = 0

Factor the expression

That's

2x( 3x + 4) - 5( 3x + 4) = 0

Which is

(2x - 5) (3x + 4) = 0

2x - 5 = 0

2x = 5

Divide both sides by 2

x = 5/2

3x + 4 = 0

3x = - 4

Divide both sides by 3

x = -4/3

Hope this helps you

What is the area of the yellow triangle?
lesantik [10]

I can't see pictures, but to find the area of a triangle, you multiply the dimensions, as you would a rectangle, but divide the area by 2.

For example, the dimensions of a triangle are 4 and 6.

Multiply the two.

4x6=24.

But don't stop there. Divide 24 by 2.

24/2=12.

So the area of the example triangle is 12.

Find the area of the circle with the given radius or diameter. Use = 3.14. d=13
leva [86]
Area of a triangle = \pi r^{2}
r = diameter/2
so area = pi * (13/2)^2
= 3.14*6.5*6.5 = 132.665
