Answer:

width = 11

length = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

11 x 2 + 3 = 25

25 + 11 = 36

Answer:

W = 3 , L = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to puzzle out what is meant by “three times more than twice the width.” At first I assumed that this meant that the length was six times the width, but I think an alternative interpretation would be that the length is twice the width plus three times the width, meaning that the length L is not 6W but rather 5W. So let’s try it that way.

As we know, the circumference of a rectangle is 2W + 2L. We also know , in this problem, that L = 5 W and the total circumference is 36. Therefore, by substitution, we arrive at 2W + 2 (5L) = 36, or 2W + 10 W = 36, or 12W =36, or W = 3. If W = 3, then L = 15

Answer:

0.4 or \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

James spun the arrow 30 times which means 30 is the total. In other words, it's your denominator (\frac{x}{30}). It landed on the blue section 12 times which means 12 is the part of the whole. In other words, it's your numerator (\frac{12}{y}). Plug in the entire fraction and you get \frac{12}{30}. Divide 12 by 30 and you get 0.4 or if you divide both the numerator & denominator by 6, you get \frac{2}{5}. Either one works, depending on what your question asks for.

An aluminum can is a right cylinder. Find the amount of paper needed for the can's label and the total
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Label: About 527.9 square centimeters

Aluminum: About 835.7 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of paper needed for the label:

You can imagine taking off the label and unrolling it, forming a rectangle. The height of this rectangle will be the height of the cylinder, while the length of the rectangle will be the circumference of the cylinder. Therefore, the area of that rectangle will be 2\pi r h= 2 \cdot \pi \cdot 7 \cdot 12\approx 527.9.

Amount of aluminum needed for the can:

This time, you need to add in the top and bottom of the can as well, which each have area \pi r^2. Together, they have area 2\pi r^2=2\cdot \pi \cdot 7^2\approx 307.9. Adding this to the area of the sides, you get a total of about 835.7 square centimeters.

Hope this helps!

14 - 4 = 10

4($7)=$28

$130-$28=$102

$102÷$15=6.8

$15x7=$105

$105+$28=$133

$15x8=$120

$120+$28=$148

$15x9=$135

$135+$28=$163

$15x10=$150

$150+$28=$178
