Answer:

The dimensions of rectangle are:

Width = 16 inches

Length = 106 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle = 244 inches

Let Width of rectangle = w

Length of rectangle = w+90

We need to find the dimensions (length and width) of the carpet

The formula used will be: Perimeter=2(length+width)

Putting values and making equation:

244=2w+2(w+90)\\Solving:\\244=2w+2w+180\\244=4w+180\\Switching\:sides\\4w+180=244\\Subtracting\:180\:from\:both\:sides\\4w=244-180\\4w=64\\Dividing\:both\:sides\:by\:4\\\frac{4w}{4} =\frac{64}{4}\\w=16

So, we get w = 16

The width w = 16 inches

Now, finding length = w+ 90 = 16+90 = 106 inches

Therefore the dimensions of rectangle are:

Width = 16 inches

Length = 106 inches

When the product of 6 and the square of a number is increased by 5 times the number, the result is 4.
il63 [147K]

Let x be the unknown number. Its square is x^2. The product of 6 and the square of the number is 6x^2. Increase this by 5 and you get 6x^2+5.

If this has to equal 4, you have 6x^2+5=4

Vladimir79 [104]
You should get it now from my previous answer.

But to apply it.

9 - 8b + 6b
9 + (-8b + 6b)   <- Collect like bases (b)
9 + (-2b)           
9 - 2b

Therefore it simplified is 9 - 2b

Answer:

15 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is:

V=\pi r^2h

pi is a constant, so there are only 3 variables in this equation. 2 of those are given, so all you need to do is plug in the given values and solve for h:

V=\pi r^2h\\9231.6=3.14\times14^2\times h\\9231.6=3.14\times196\times h\\9231.6=615.44\times h\\15=h\\h=15

The height of this cylinder is 15 meters.
