Sara’s number is 451!

-72 x -6 = 432
432 + 19 = 451

the ratio between length and breadth of a rectangle is 7 : 5 find its length and breadth if it its perimeter is 60 m

Furkat [3]

Answer:

length= 17.5 m , breadth = 12.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of length : breadth = 7 : 5 = 7x : 5x ( x is a multiplier )

Then

2l + 2b = perimeter ( l is length, b is breadth )

2(7x) + 2(5x) = 60

14x + 10x = 60

24x = 60 ( divide both sides by 24 )

x = 2.5

Then

length = 7x = 7 × 2.5 = 17.5 m

breadth = 5x = 5 × 2.5 = 12.5 m

X is inversely proportional to y, and x = 18 when y = 4. Write an equation relating the two

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$xy=72$

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is inversely porportionaly to y, then for some constant k,

$x = \frac{k}{y}\\xy=k$

Since y is 4 when x = 18, k is equal to 4*18=72, so the equation is:

$xy=72$
