Answer:

the width is 9in

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of triangle =3×16 = 48

let w= width of rectangle

perimeter of triangle = perimeter of rectangle

48= 2(15 +w)

Answer:

<h3>AB ≈ 70m</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Check the attachment for the diagram.

You can see from the diagram that it is a right angled triangle with opposite side AB and adjacent side BC. Using SOH, CAH, TOA trig identity to get the length of AB. According to TOA;

tan 35° = opposite/adjacent

tan 35° = AB/BC

tan 35° = AB/100

AB = 100tan35°

AB = 100 * 0.7002

AB = 70.02m

Hence the distance across a lake between A and B is approximately 70m

there is 25 people on a bus they pay R x each if there where 5 more people every body can pay R3 less how much is R x
a_sh-v [17]

Based on the given parameters, the value of Rx is R18

<h3>How to determine the value of Rx?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Number of people = 25

Amount paid = Rx

Additional people of 5 = Amount paid being R3 less

The total amount paid is calculated using:

Total amount = Number of people * Amount paid

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Total amount = 25 * x

Total amount = (25 + 5) * (x - 3)

Substitute Total amount = (25 + 5) * (x - 3) in Total amount = 25 * x

(25 + 5) * (x - 3) = 25 * x

Evaluate the sum

30 * (x - 3) = 25 * x

Evaluate the products

30x - 90 = 25x

Collect like terms

30x - 25x = 90

Evaluate the like terms

5x = 90

Divide both sides by 5

x = 18

Hence, the value of Rx is R18
