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

The perimeter of a standard-sized rectangular rug is 36 is 36 ft. the length is 2 ft longer than the width. find the dimensions
evablogger [386]
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2L + 2W, where L is the length and W is the width. Because we don't know either the length or the width we can't solve the problem...too many unknowns.  BUT we do have some information that will help with this problem.  We are told that the length is 2 feet longer than the width, so we can use that: L = W+2.  Now we can make the substitution into the formula along with the value for the perimeter that was given to us: 36=2(W+2) + 2W, and 36 = 2W + 4 + 2W; 36 = 4W + 4; 32 = 4W and W = 8.  Now go back to where you said that the length is 2 feet longer than the width.  If the width is 8, then 8+2 = 10 for the length.

We have two fractions, 3/4 and 7/6 , and we want to rewrite them so that they have a common denominator (and whole number numera
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

12,24 etc

Step-by-step explanation:

4 and 6 both go into 12 evenly

4*3 = 12

6*2 = 12

12 is the least common denominator

We could also use 24

4*6 = 24

It is a common denominator, but not the least common denominator

We can use any multiple of 12

Given the diagram below if the measure of <1 is 36° what is the
mina [271]

Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the horizontal lines are parallel <7 is the same as <4. Because <1 and <7 are on a straight line they must add up to 180. <7 + 36 = 180 so <7=144 so <1 is also 144.
