The length of a rectangle is 2 ft longer than its width.
If the perimeter of the rectangle is 56 ft, find its length and width.

Answers

Answer 1

Hi! I'm happy to help!

To solve this, we first need to look at the perimeter equation:

P=2L+2W

We don't know our length, so we can represent it with x. Since our width is 2 feet shorter than x, we can represent it with x-2. Now, we plug these values into our equation:

56=2x+(2(x-2))

Let's simplify what the width is by multiplying:

56=2x+2x-4

Now, let's combine our 2xs

56=4x-4

Now, we just need to solve for x in order to find our length and width.

First, we need to isolate x on one side of the equation. We can do this by adding 4 to both sides:

56=4x-4

+4      +4

60=4x

Now, all we have to do is divide both sides by 4 and x will be fully isolated:

60=4x

÷4  ÷4

15=x

Now that we know x, let's plug this into our previous equations:

L=x=15

L=15

W=x-2=15-2=13

W=13

To verify our answers, we can plug this into our perimeter equation:

56=2(15)+2(13)

56=30+36

56=56

After double checking our answers, we know that our length is 15 and our width is 13.

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

Questions 9 = -1
Questions 10 = -15

Answer:

9. -1

First combine the like terms (-5x and 3x), the move -9x to the other side. That equals 7x. Then move -16 (turn positive) and add it to -23, that equals -7. Divide both sides by 7.

10. 9

Add 1 to -24. Then move -23(turn positive) to the other side. Combine with -5 and you get 18. Then move 6r and subtract it from 8r. Divide both sides by 2.

11. 11

Subtract 7a from 9a= 2a. then add 3a and 2a and move 5a to the other side. Add -5a and 2a = -3a. Divide both sides by -3.

12. 5

Combine the like terms. Move -25 and turn it positive and then add it to 20= 45. Turn -2m positive and add it to 7m. Divide both sides by 9.

13. -5

Use the distributive property on both sides. Move 2k and subtract it from 4k= 2k. Move -8 and add it to -18= -10. Divide both sides by 2.

14. -2

Use the distributive property. Move -5n and add it to -6m= -m. Move 18 and subtract it from 20= 2. Divide both sides by -1.

15. -3

Use the distributive property and combine like terms. Move 4p to the other side and subtract from -7p= -11p. Change the sign of 16 and add to 17= 33. Divide both sides by -11.

16. -13

Use the distributive property (pay attention to signs) and combine the like terms. Move -8v, turn positive, and add to -6v= 2v. Move 14, turn negative, and combine with -12= -26. Divide both sides by 2.

2 1/6 x 4 1/2= and explain it

Answers

Answer:

9 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

First you would want to multiply the whole number with their denominators and then add the numerator to that. 2*6+1 and 4*2+1  Then you keep the original denominator at the bottom of the fraction.

2*6+1/6  4*2+1/2 ---> 13/6 x 9/2

You would then simplify the crossing numbers 6 and 9. They both can be divided by three.

13/2 x 3/2 = 39/4

Now you would do long division where you divide 39 by 4

4 goes into 39 nine times subtracting 36 from 39.

You then end up with 1 which becomes you numerator, 4 is the new denominator and 9 is the whole number.

The answer of the given mixed numbers 2 1/6 x 4 1/2 is 9 3/4.

What is mixed numbers?

A mixed number is a whole number, and a proper fraction represented together. It generally represents a number between any two whole numbers.

You should first multiply the entire number by the denominators of the other numbers, and then add the numerator to that result. 2*6+1 and 4*2+1 The original denominator is then kept at the bottom of the fraction.

(2*6+1)/6 x ( 4*2+1)/2 —-> 13/6 x 9/2

Next, you would streamline the intersection of numbers 6 and 9. They are both divisible by three.

13/2 x 3/2 = 39/4

You would now perform a long division by dividing 39 by 4.
4 multiplies 39 by 9 and subtracts 36 from 39.

In the end 3 becomes the numerator, 4 becomes the new denominator, and 9 is the total.

Therefore, 2 1/6 x 4 1/2 = 9 3/4.

The simple interest rate need by Teri will be 4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Teri has $125,000 to deposit in his accounts so that he gets $200,000 in 16 years along with the simple interest.

To find:

The simple interest rate needed to grow $125,000 into $200,000 in 16 years.

Solution:

The principle amount Teri has = P = $125,000

The total amount Teri wants to have in 16 years = A = $200,000

The simple interest that will Teri earn = S.I

[tex]S.I= A - P =\$200,000-$125,000=\$ 75,000[/tex]

The rate of interest per year = R

The time for which money is deposited = T = 16 years

The simple interest is calculated by the formula:

[tex]S.I=\frac{P\times R\times T}{100}\\\$75,000=\frac{\$125,000\times R\times 16}{100}\\R=\frac{$75,000\times 100}{$125,000\times 16}=3.75\% \approx 4\%[/tex]

Simple interest rate (R) is 3.75%

Number of year (n) = 16 year

Amount needed (A) = $200,000

Find:

Simple interest rate (R)

Computation:

Amount of interest (I) = A - P

Amount of interest (I) = 200,000 - 125,000

Amount of interest (I) = 75,000

So,

I = (P)(R)(T)

75,000 = (125,000)(R)(16)

75,000 = 2,000,000(R)

R = 75,000 / 2,000,000

Here, we see that both numbers in the problem are negative, so we have an even number of minus signs. That means the quotient will be positive. Knowing this lets us eliminate the minus signs from the problem.

As you may know, there are a couple of (fully equivalent) ways to divide fractions.

1) "invert and multiply" or "dot swap"

  (11/10) ÷ (11/10) = (11/10) · (10/11) . . . . . . . the denominator has been inverted

  = (11·10)/(10·11) = 110/110 = 1

2) use the numerators when the denominators are equal.

A total of 388 tickets were sold for the school play. They were either adult tickets or student tickets. The number of student tickets sold was three times the number of adult tickets sold. How many adult tickets were sold?​

Answers

Answer:

97

Step-by-step explanation:

388 (number of tickets) / 4 (number of groups (adults, and the 3 times as many kids))

If the number of student tickets sold was three times the number of adult tickets sold, 97 adult tickets were sold.

Let's assume the number of adult tickets sold is 'x.'

According to the information given, the number of student tickets sold was three times the number of adult tickets sold. So, the number of student tickets sold is 3x.

The total number of tickets sold is the sum of the adult and student tickets, which is 388:

x + 3x = 388

Now, combine like terms:

4x = 388

To find the value of 'x,' divide both sides of the equation by 4:

x = 388 / 4

x = 97

To verify the result, let's find the number of student tickets:

Number of student tickets = 3 * 97 = 291

Now, let's add the adult and student tickets:

97 (adult) + 291 (student) = 388

The result checks out, and we have 97 adult tickets and 291 student tickets, which together sum up to the total of 388 tickets sold for the school play.
