Part (a)
<h3>Answer:
2(2.4+w) = 14.2</h3>
--------------
Explanation:
L = 2.4 = length
W = unknown width
The perimeter of any rectangle is P = 2(L+W)
We replace L with 2.4, and replace P with 14.2 to get 14.2 = 2(2.4+w) which is equivalent to 2(2.4+w) = 14.2
========================================================
Part (b)
<h3>Answer:
w = 4.7</h3>
--------------
Explanation:
We'll solve the equation we set up in part (a)
2(2.4+w) = 14.2
2(2.4)+2(w) = 14.2
4.8+2w = 14.2
2w = 14.2-4.8
2w = 9.4
w = 9.4/2
w = 4.7
The width must be 4.7 cm.
Tree 3 diagram is the answer
Answer:
6 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Difference in distance
= 15 - 12
= 3 mi
time taken
= 30 mins
= 1/2 hour
Speed
= 3 ÷ 1/2
= 6 mph
Speed = distance / time
Tuesday: speed = 2.4km / 18 minutes = 0.13 km per minute
Friday: speed = 1.8 km / 12 minutes = 0.15 km per minute
0.15 is larger than 0.13 so she ran faster on Friday.
