Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,Voelkarsd

The formula for the perimeter for a rectangle is P = 2L + 2W

The formula for the area of a rectangle is A = LW

where L = length and W = width

P = 22 and A = 28

22 = 2L + 2W

28 = LW

Rewriting the 2nd equation L = 28/W

Substituting this into the first equation

22=2(28/W) + 2W

Reworking the equation to eliminate the denominator

22W = 2(28) + 2W2

22W = 56 + 2W2

and

2W2 - 22W + 56 = 0

Dividing by 2

W2 - 11W + 28 = 0

(W-7)(W-4)

Set each factor equal to 0 and solve each for 0

W = 4, W = 7

If W = 4, then 2(L+4)=22

L = 7

The sticker is 7 cm by 4 cm

A vendor at a street fair sells popcorn in cones, all of height 9 inches. The
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

The sharing cone holds about 9 times more popcorn than the skinny cone.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is given by the following formula:

V = \frac{\pi r^{2}h}{3}

In which r is the radius and h is the height.

Two cones:

Both have the same height.

The sharing-size cone has 3 times the radius of the skinny-size cone.

Skinny:

radius r, height h. So

V_{sk} = \frac{\pi r^{2}h}{3}

Sharing size:

radius 3r, height h. So

V_{sh} = \frac{\pi (3r)^{2}h}{3} = \frac{9\pi r^{2}h}{3} = 3\pi r^{2}h

About how many times more popcorn does the sharing cone hold than the skinny cone?

r = \frac{V_{sh}}{V_{sk}} = \frac{3\pi r^{2}h}{\frac{\pi r^{2}h}{3}} = \frac{3*3\pi r^{2}h}{\pi r^{2}h} = 9

The sharing cone holds about 9 times more popcorn than the skinny cone.

Divide Rs.300 between A and B in the ratio2:3
kherson [118]

The value of 300 is divided into 120 and 180 in the ratio of 2:3.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • The total value is 300.
  • This total of 300 should be divide in the ratio of 2:3.

Let us assume that the common factor be x in the ratio.

  • The value of the part A is 2x.
  • The value of the part B is 3x.

It is known that, 2x + 3x = 300

⇒ 5x = 300

⇒ x = 300/5

⇒ x =60.

<u>To find the values of A and B :</u>

A= 2x

⇒ 2(60)

⇒ 120

B= 3x

⇒ 3(60)

⇒ 180

The value of 300 is divided into 120 and 180 in the ratio of 2:3.

What is the area of a piece of plywood measuring 2 feet 8 inches long by 2 feet 4 inches wide? Give your answer in square inches
Kruka [31]

Given

piece of plywood measuring 2 feet 8 inches long by 2 feet 4 inches wide.

What is the area of a piece of plywood .

To proof

Here plywood shape in the form of rectangle.

Formula

Area of rectangle = Length×Breadth

As given in the question

Length =2 feet 8 inches

Breadth = 2 feet 4 inches

First convert feet into inches

1 feet = 12 inches

2 feet 8 inches = 2×12 + 8

                       =  32 inches

Also

2 feet 4 inches  = 2×12 +4

                          = 28 inches

put is in the above formula

Area of plywood = 32 ×28

                            = 896 inches²

Therefore option (b) is correct

Hence proved
