Answer:

48 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The area around something is the perimeter and the formula for perimeter of a rectangle is:

P = 2( l + w )

You are given the perimeter and width in this problem, so you would do the inverse of everything in this problem.

108 = 2( l +6 )

108/2 = 54

54 - 6 = 48

l = 48

The length is 48 feet

Answer:

16 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle is 108 ft

Breadth = 6 ft = b

Length = l

A rectangle consists of four right angles with opposite sides of equal length.

For a rectangle the perimeter is the sum of all the sides. This means as there are two lengths and breadths the,

Perimeter = 2(l +b)

⇒108 = 2(l+6)

⇒54 = (l+6)

⇒l = 54-6

⇒l = 48 ft

1 yard = 3 ft

⇒1 ft = 1/3 yards

⇒48 ft = 48×1/3

⇒48 ft = 16 yards

∴ Length of fence is 16 yards

Answer:

The measure of angle 6 is 72.

The measure of angle 7 is 108.

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding angles are equal. So angle 1, 3, 5 and 7 are all equal.

If you look at angle 1 and 2, they are adjacent angles, so together they add up to 180. So if you subtract 108 from 180 you get 72... and we already established that all corresponding angles are equal, so if angle 2 is 72 degrees, we can conclude that angle 6 is as well.

What is the rate of return when 35 shares of Stock A, purchased for $20/share, are sold for $815? The commission on the sale is
wariber [46]

Cost price:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 35\times 20

\\ \sf\longmapsto 700

  • Commision=$6
  • Total sold price=815+6=823$

Now

Return=823-700=123

Rate of return

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{123}{700}\times 100

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{123}{7}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 17.5\%

If LaTeX: m\angle ABF=8s-6m ∠ A B F = 8 s − 6 and LaTeX: m\angle ABE=2\left(s+11\right)m ∠ A B E = 2 ( s + 11 ), find LaTeX: m\a
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

<h2><em>2(3s-14)</em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the angles ∠ABF=8s-6, ∠ABE = 2(s + 11), we are to find the angle ∠EBF. The following expression is true for the three angles;

∠ABF = ∠ABE + ∠EBF

Substituting the given angles into the equation to get the unknown;

8s-6 = 2(s + 11)+ ∠EBF

open the parenthesis

8s-6 = 2s + 22+ ∠EBF

∠EBF = 8s-6-2s-22

collect the like terms

∠EBF = 8s-2s-22-6

∠EBF = 6s-28

factor out the common multiple

∠EBF = 2(3s-14)

<em></em>

<em>Hence the measure of angle ∠EBF is 2(3s-14)</em>
