The student is correct. Due to the meaning of perimeter which is all sides added up to make a number total, it is possible for a square and a rectangle to have the same perimeter if the numbers add up.

Answer:

Perimeter of rectangle = 2×[Length +Breadth]

Perimeter of Square=4 × Side

If both Rectangle and Square has Same Perimeter

   →4 ×Side=2×[Length +Breadth]

 Dividing both sides by 2

→2 ×Side=Length +Breadth

So, if sum of length and breadth of rectangle is equal to side of square multiplied by 2,then perimeter of rectangle and square will be equal.

Suppose, Length=4 units

Breadth =6 units

Then,2×Side of Square=(4+6)

  Then , Side of Square=5 units

⇒So,there are infinite dimensions of Square and rectangle possible such that both have same perimeter.

66 bats were sold. Some were sold for $42 each the rest were sold for $30 each. The total sales were$2,460. Write and solve a sy
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

40 bats sold for $42

26 bats sold for $30

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 66

42x + 30y = 2460

solve first equation for y and plug in for y in second equation

42x + 30 (66 - x) = 2460

x = 40

y = 66- 40 = 26

I have one third gallon of juice and one sixth gallon. How many more gallons is need to make three gallons
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

2.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Make the denominators of the fractions the same and combine them

\frac{1}{3} =\frac{2}{6}

\frac{2}{6} +\frac{1}{6} =\frac{3}{6}

Then simplify the fraction

\frac{3}{6} =\frac{1}{2}

Then subtract how many gallons you have from how many you want

3 -\frac{1}{2} = 2\frac{1}{2}

You will need 2.5 gallons to make 3 gallons

Talia used 1/3 of a piece of wood for the base of her project 1/4 of the piece of wood for the vertical support and the rest for
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

The fraction of wood used for horizontal support is \frac{5}{12}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the total piece of wood is of length 1.

It is provided that Talia used \frac{1}{3} of the piece of wood for the base of he project.

She use \frac{1}{4} of the piece of wood for the for the vertical support.

The remaining wood she used for horizontal support.

The amount of wood used for horizontal support can be computed by the subtracting the amount of wood used for base of the project and vertical support form 1.

Compute the amount of wood used for horizontal support as follows:

Horizontal\ support=1-Base\ of\ project-Vertical\ support\\= 1 - \frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\\  =\frac{12-4-3}{12} \\=\frac{5}{12}

Thus, the fraction of wood used for horizontal support is \frac{5}{12}.
