Answer:

Length = 30m and Breadth = 10m  

Step-by-step explanation:  

Given that :  

Perimeter = 80 m ;  

Breadth = 1/3 of Length ; Length = l  

We know that :  

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( L + B ).  

80 = 2 ( L + 1/3 L )  

80/2 = 4/3 L.  

40 = 4/3 L  

3/4 × 40 = L.  

3 × 10 = L.  

L = 30m.  

Breadth = 1/3 of Length.  

Breadth = 1/3 × 30.  

Breadth = 10m.

Answer:

width = 10, length = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter can be written as: (2 x width)(2 x length) or width + width + length + length, I'm sure there are others, but I won't get into that.

anyways, lets call width of the triangle "x". x is 1/3 of the length, in other words, x + x + x = length. we can now say that length is 3x.

width = x

length = 3x

now lets plug in these answers to the "width" and "length" in the perimeter formula

perimeter = x + x + 3x + 3x

we are given the perimeter, that is 80.

x + x + 3x + 3x = 80

x + x can be simplified to 2x

think of "x" like label, say... xylophones

2 xylophones + 3 xylophones + 3 xylophones = 8 xylophones

8x = 80

divide 80 by 8.

x = 10

now we know the width.

width = 10

remember, the length is width x 3

10 x 3 = 30

the width = 30

let's check our answer!

10 + 10 + 30 + 30 = 80

Answer:

The equation is following the mathematical rule of multiplying exponents.

Step-by-step explanation:

As an example to back up the answer, when you have half of a dollar, that is $0.50, if you took a half (1/2) of $0.50 that would be one fourth (1/4) of a dollar, but half of 50 cents ($0.50) A similar thing is happening with this problem. When you have two numbers (2 and 4) when you multiply them together, they equal to eight (8) for this problem, when you multiply two exponents together, you are raising the coefficient (a real number like 6) to the power of 2, and then taking that number and multiplying it by the power of 4. This is similar to the half of 50 cents, is equal to 1/4 of dollar  ($0.25)

Hope this helps explain multiplying exponents together, and the mathematical rule behind it.

What is (-m)⁻³n if m = 2 and n = -24?
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

(-2)^-3 x (-24)

(-2)^3 becomes 1/(-2)^3 in order to make the negative exponent a positive one.

then, you do 1/-8 (the -8 is the (-2)^3 simplified) x -24

1/-8 x (24) = 24/-8 = -3.

Hope this helps! :)
