Answer:
9 inches by 12 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
So let's say <em>L</em>=length and <em>W</em>=width.
Since the problem states that the length should be 3 inches longer than the width, <em>L</em><em>=</em><em> </em>W+3
And the formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2L+2W
so plug in W+3 for L and you get 2(W+3)+2W
Then distribute
2W+6+2W
Combine like-terms
4W+6
And the problem states the perimeter is 42 inches so,
4W+6=42
Subtract 6 to both sides
4W=36
Divide by 4 to both sides
W=9
So the width is 9
And to get the length, plug in 9 for W in L=W+3
L=9+3
L=12
So the length is 12
Answer:
220 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
120 degrees + 100 degrees= 220 degrees
Let h represent the height of the building. Then the difference between the two angle measurement locations is
.. h/tan(39°) -h/tan(50°) = 300 ft
.. h = (300 ft)/(1/tan(39°) -1/tan(50°))
.. h ≈ 758 ft
The height of the building is about 758 feet.
The sign would be negative because there is an odd number of negatives. If there were an even number of negatives it would be positive.
Multiply -5 by -1
The answer would be -5/2
