True
3/6 = 0,5
1/8 = 0,125
0,5 > 0,125
30 / 4.5 = 6.7...so the most 4 1/2 foot sections is 6
Yes 3/4 is bigger than 1/4 3 is bigger than 1 so 3/4 is bigger.
The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides.
The angles opposite the congruent sides are congruent.
Just like the bottom left angle measures x, the bottom right angle also measures x.
x + x + 38 = 180
2x + 38 = 180
2x = 142
x = 71
Answer: the length is 15 m and the width is 5 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the original length of the rectangle.
Let W represent the original width of the rectangle.
The length of a rectangle is three times it's width. This means that
L = 3W
If the width is diminished by 1 m and length is increased by 3 m, the area of the rectangle that is formed is 72 m². This means that
(L + 3)(W - 1) = 72
LW - L + 3W - 3 - 72 = 72 + 3
LW - L + 3W = 75 - - - - -- - - - - - 1
Substituting L = 3W into equation 1, it becomes
3W × W - 3W + 3W = 75
3W² = 75
W² = 75/3 = 25
W = √25 = ±5
The width cannot be negative. Therefore, the width is 5 m
L = 3W = 3 × 5 = 15 m
