Step by step:

Perimeter = Summation of all sides = AB+BC+CD+DA = 2x+2+x+2x+2+x=(6x+4)

⇒6x+4=154

⇒6x=154−4

⇒\frac{150}{6x}

⇒25=x

The breadth is x=25

The length of the rectangular pool = (2×25+2)=50+2=52m

<em>breadth </em>is 25 and the<em> length </em>is 52

Hope it helps!

\blue\star \rm\pink{ Question:}

The perimeter of a rectangular swimming pool is 154 m. Its length is 2 m more than twice its breadth. What are the length and the breadth of the pool?

\\  \\

\blue\star \rm\pink{ Given :}

  • Perimeter of swimming pool is 154 m
  • Length is 2m more than breadth

\\  \\

\blue\star \rm\pink{ To ~Find :}

  • Length of rectangular pool
  • Breadth of rectanglur pool

\\  \\

\blue\star \rm\pink{Let :}

  • Breadth of x
  • Length be (2 + 2x)

\\  \\

We know:-

\bigstar \boxed{ \rm perimeter \: of \: rextangle = 2(length +breadth)}

So:-

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf perimeter \: of \: rextangle = 2(length +breadth) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 2( 2 + 2x +x) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 2( 2 + 3x) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 2( 2 )+ 2(3x) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 4+ 2(3x) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 4+ 6x

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 - 4 =6x

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 150 =6x

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 6x = 150

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf x = \dfrac{150}{6}

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf x = \cancel \dfrac{150}{6}

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\bf x =25

\\  \\

Let's Verify value of x:-

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 2( 2 + 2x +x) \\

put value of x in equation

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 2( 2 +  \{2 \times 25 \} +25) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 2( 2 + 50+25) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 2( 2 + 75) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\sf 154 = 2(77) \\

\\  \\

\dashrightarrow\bf 154 =154

\\  \\

\Large \bf\dag LHS = RHS \dag

Hence proved

\\  \\

Finally Let's find length and breadth of pool:-

\\  \\

To find breadth

➙ Breadth = x

➙ Breadth = 25 m

\\

To find length

➙ Length = 2 + 2x

➙ Length = 2 + 2(25)

➙ Length = 2 + 50

➙ Length = 52 m

To the nearest​ millimeter, a cell phone is 72 mm long and 46 mm wide. What is the ratio of the width to the​ length
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Length = 72 mm

Width = 46 mm

Ratio = 72:46 = 36:23

Step-by-step explanation:

72 and 36 both are divisible by 2. so when we divide them by two we get 36 and 23. we can divide both the sides only with the same number, but 36 and 23 have no common factors. so we leave it here and this is the answer.

I have no idea how to do this, pls help. Question in the picture. Please show your work. Thanks!
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a stem and leaf plot. If you don't know what a stem and leaf plot is, try searching it before coming back and viewing the solution. I also see an "example" button. It might help to hit that too.

First, we sort the list of numbers. Here is what we get:

64, 66, 67, 68, 69, 74, 75, 76, 78, 79

Here, the stems are the tens digits and the leaves are the ones digits.

Therefore, for the stem 6, the leaves are:

4, 6, 7, 8, 9

For the stem 7, the leaves are:

4, 5, 6, 8, 9

The answer, I believe, is C
