Answer:

Let width of rectangle be x cm.

3x+x+3x+x=39

8x=39

x=39÷8

=39/8

=4/7/8

3x=39/8×3

=117/8

=14/5/8

Hence, length=14/5/8cm while width=4/7/8cm.

$\bf \begin{array}{llllll}
\textit{something}&&\textit{varies inversely to}&\textit{something else}\\ \quad \\
\textit{something}&=&\cfrac{{{\textit{some value}}}}{}&\cfrac{}{\textit{something else}}\\ \quad \\
y&=&\cfrac{{{\textit{k}}}}{}&\cfrac{}{x}
\\\\
&&y=\cfrac{{{ k}}}{x}&\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
k=\textit{constant}\\

\end{array}
\end{array}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
$

$\bf y=\cfrac{k}{x}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
y=0.2\\
x=0.3
\end{cases}\implies 0.2=\cfrac{k}{0.3}\implies 0.2\cdot 0.3=k
\\\\\\
\textit{thus, the equation will be}\quad y=\cfrac{0.06}{x}$

Find the missing side length. Round to the nearest tenth.<br>15 cm<br>9 cm

vazorg [7]

Using Pythagorean’s theorem
a^2 +b^2= c^2
We know
c=15
b=9
a=?
Sub that in the Pythagorean’s theorem
a^2+9^2 = 15^2
a^2 + 81 = 225
a^2= 225-81
a^2 = 144
a= square root of 144
a= 12

Therefore the answer is 12
