A rectangle's length is twice its width. if the perimeter is 66 cm find the width of the rectangle

1 answer:

6 0

Perimeter = 2L + 2W

Let x = width and let 2x = length

Perimeter = 66

2x + 2(2x) = 66

2x + 4x = 66 --> 6x = 66 --> x = 66/6 --> x = 11

The width of the rectangle is 11 cm.

A scientist is studying the growth of a particular species of plant. He writes the following equation to show the height of the

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 16.13 = 12(1.03)ⁿ

1.344 = (1.03)ⁿ

ln(1.344) = n(ln(1.03))

n = (ln(1.344)) / ln(1.03)

n = 10.0062...

so a domain of 0 ≤ n ≤ 10 is reasonable

B) y-intercept is the height of the plant on day 0 which would be 12 cm

C) f(3) = 12(1.03)³ = 13.11 cm

average rate of change = Δh/Δn = (16.13 - 13.11) / (10 - 3) = 3.02 / 7

= 0.43 cm/day or average growth per day

find the curved surface area and total surface area of a right circular cylinder whose height is 15 cm and the radius of the bas

otez555 [7]

Answer:

$CSA = 660cm^2$ --- Curved Surface Area

$TSA = 968cm^2$ --- Total Surface Area

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Shape: Cylinder

$h = 15$ -- height

$r = 7$ --- radius

Solving (a): The curved surface area (CSA)

This is calculated as:

$CSA = 2\pi rh$

This gives:

$CSA = 2 * \frac{22}{7} * 7 * 15$

$CSA = 2 * 22* 15$

$CSA = 660cm^2$

Solving (b): The total surface area (TSA)

This is calculated as:

$TSA = 2\pi r(h + r)$

This gives:

$TSA = 2 * \frac{22}{7} * 7 * (15 + 7)$

$TSA = 2 * 22 * (15 + 7)$

$TSA = 2 * 22 * 22$

$TSA = 968cm^2$

10. Make Sense and Persevere The flag of the

kumpel [21]

Answer:

$s=\frac{P}{3}$
Dimensions of the flag:

$lenght=6.65\ ft\\\\width=3.5\ ft$

Area of the flag: $23.275\ ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing figure of the exercise is attached.

We know that the perimeter of the triangle is given by:

$P= 3s$

Where "s" is the side lenght of the triangle.

Solving for "s", we get:

$s=\frac{P}{3}$

Therefore, if the perimeter of the triangle is 126 inches, its side length is:

$s=\frac{126\ in}{3}\\\\s=42\ in$

Since $1\ ft=12\ in$ , we know that "s" in feet is:

$s=(42\ in)(\frac{1\ ft}{12\ in})=3.5\ ft$

The area of a rectangle can be calculated with this formula:

$A=lw$

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width

We can observe in the figure that the lenght and the width of the flag are:

$l=1.9s\\w=s$

Then, the dimensions of the flag are:

$l=1.9(3.5\ ft)=6.65\ ft\\w=3.5\ ft$

And the area is:

$A=(6.65\ ft)(3.5\ ft)=23.275\ ft^2$
