Answer:

A = 10.27cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent the width as x,

therefore since the length is 4 more than 3 times the width, it can be represent as 3x + 4,   Perimeter = 18.4cm

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B)

18.4= 2(3x+4+x)\\18.4= 6x+8+2x\\18.4-8=6x+2x\\10.4=8x\\x=\frac{10.4}{8}\\x=1.3

width = 1.3cm

Length = 3x + 4 = 3*1.3 + 4 = 7.9cm

Area of a rectangle = length x width

A = 7.9 * 1.3 = 10.27cm²

Let the width be w
Length = 3w +4
Perimeter = 2*(l+b)
2*(3w+4+w)=18.4
2*(4w+4)=18.4
8w+8=18.4
8w=18.4- 8
8w= 10.4
W=10.4/8
w= 1.3 cm
L=3*1.3+4
=3.9+4
l=7.9


Area = length * width
= 7.9*1.3
= 10.27 square cm

Two similar cylinders have radii of 15 inches and 6 inches. What is the ratio of the surface area of the small cylinder to the s
Levart [38]

Answer:

4:25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

r₁ = 15 inches, r₂ = 6 inches

The area of the cylinder is given by :

A=2\pi rh+2\pi r^2

The ratio of surface areas of two cylinders,

\dfrac{S_2}{S_1}=\dfrac{2\pi r_2h_2+2\pi r_2^2}{2\pi r_1h_1+2\pi r_1^2}\\\\\dfrac{S_2}{S_1}=(\dfrac{r_2}{r_1})^2\\\\=\dfrac{6}{15}^2\\\\=\dfrac{4}{25}

Hence, the required ratio is 4:25.

pentagon [3]

Answer: -x/2 + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

write t in terms of x

x = 2t

t = x/2

substitute t in y

y = 1 - t

y = 1 - x/2 or -x/2 + 1

5. It is known that AABC = ADEF. If AB = 5, BC = 10, AC = 8, and DF = 2x-6, then solve for the value of
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The value of x is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are congruent, then the corresponding angles and the corresponding sides are equal

In this problem

Triangles ABC and DEF are congruent

ABC≅DEF

therefore

AB=DE ----> equation A

AC=DF ----> equation B

BC=EF ----> equation C

Substitute the given values in the equation B

8=2x-6

Solve for x

2x=8+6

2x=14

x=7

therefore

The value of x is 7
