Answer:

Length=22.5cm, Breadth=11.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length be l and width be w.

w+22=l

w+w+w+22+w+22=90

4w=90-22-22

=46

w=46 divided by 4

=11.5

l=11.5+11

=22.5

Hence,

Length of rectangle=22.5cm

Breadth of rectangle=11.5cm

In the straightaways, each lane is a rectangle. What is the area and perimeter of each

Greeley [361]

The area of the lane is 50 in² and its perimeter is 30 in.

Area is the amount of space occupied by a two dimensional object or figure. For a rectangle:

Area = length * width

Let the length of the lane be 10 in and the width be 5 in, hence:

Area = 10 * 5 = 50 in²

Perimeter = 2(length + width) = 2(10 + 5) = 30 in

The area of the lane is 50 in² and its perimeter is 30 in.

The answer for the blank is 0.003

This is the slope value, which is the number in front of the x in the least squares regression line. Each time x increases by 1, y increases by 0.003

This is the predicted y value of course.

a farmer is planning a rectangular area for her chickens. the area of the rectangle will be 200 square feet. three sides of the

Vladimir79 [104]

Let

x---------> the length side of the rectangular area

y---------> the width side of the rectangular area

we know that

the area of the rectangle is equal to

$A=x*y\\ A= 200\ ft^{2} \\ x*y=200$

$y=\frac{200}{x}$ -----> equation $1$

The perimeter of the rectangle is equal to

$P=2x+2y$

but remember that the fourth side of the rectangle will be formed by a portion of the barn wall

$P=x+2y$ -----> equation $2$

<em>To minimize the cost we must minimize the perimeter</em>

Substitute the equation $1$ in the equation $2$

$P=x+2*[\frac{200}{x} ]$

Using a graph tool

see the attached figure

The minimum of the graph is the point $(20,40)$

that means for $x=20\ ft$

the perimeter is a minimum and equal to $40\ ft$

<u>Find the value of y</u>

$y=\frac{200}{x}$

$y=\frac{200}{20}$

$y=10\ ft$

The cost of fencing is equal to

$5*40= \$200$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the length side of the the fourth wall will be $20\ ft$
