Answer:

Length, l = 10 m, breadth = 8 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l be the length and b be the width of the rectangle.

The area of a rectangle is given by :

A = lb

80 = lb ...(1)

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by :

P = 2(l+b)

36 = 2(l+b)

18 = (l+b) ....(2)

We need to solve equation (1) and (2). On solving we get :

l = 10, b = 8

So, the dimensions of the shop is 10 m and 8 m.

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

First, we need to find out how much the price increased by.

$4.50 - $3.75 = $0.75

Now we have to figure out what percent $0.75 is of $3.75. To do this, we divide $0.75 by $3.75.

The answer is 0.2. Now, we convert this into a percent by moving the decimal to the right by to spaces: 0.2 = 20%

The percent of increase is 20%.

Answer:

81000 $cm^{2}$ or 8.1 $m^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1m = 100cm

10m = 1000cm

a= b*h

a= 1000cm * 810cm

= 810000 $cm^{2}$

1 $m^{2}$ = 10000 $cm^{2}$

810000 $cm^{2}$ = 8.1 $m^{2}$
