It is 1/3
3:3 =1
9:3 = 3
make sure that the top and bottom numbers divide with the same number :)
Let's say:
lengh=x
width=y
"The length of a rectangle is 4 inches greater than the width."
That means: x=y+4 (in inches).
the parameter is (by definition) 2*lenght+2*width.
so we have 2*x+2y=24.
we also know that x=y+4
Substituting:
2*(y+4)+2y=24.
2*y+8+2y=24
4*y+8=24//substitute 8 from both sides
4*y=16//dividing both sides by 4.
y=4
So the width is 4!
The lenght is y+4=8!
the dimensions are 4 by 8.
(check: 2*4+2*8=24, correct!)
Answer:
( -4, 11 ]
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is: -3r+15r
you will multiply -3*5 first then -3*-r
Let us use the Pythagorean theorem in identifying what triangle can be formed.
Let us assume that the 2 wooden dowels each measure 8 inches. We cut off one wooden dowel into half, so it becomes 2 pcs of 4 inches each.
The 3 wooden dowels now measure, 4 inches, 4 inches, and 8 inches.
The Pythagorean theorem states:
a² + b² = c²
4² + 4² = 8²
16 + 16 = 64
34 ≠ 64
The measure of the cut wooden dowel must be longer than the uncut wooden dowel to create a triangle.
I also tried this on a piece of paper, I cut each piece according to the assumed measure. No triangle can be formed under this activity.
