the perimeter of a rectangle is 68 feet the length is 5 inches shorter than twice the width what are the dimensions of the rectangle

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter formula is P = 2L + 2W. If the perimeter is given as 68 feet, then our P will be filled in with 68. If the length is "5 inches shorter than twice the width" is an expression that looks like this, keeping in mind that "shorter" means subtraction, "twice" means doubled, and the word "is" means equals:

L = "length is"

2W is "twice the width"

5 inches shorter is " - 5". Putting it all together:

L = 2W - 5. Now we can fill in the perimeter formula:

68 = 2W + 2(2W - 5) and

68 = 2W + 4W - 10 and

68 = 6W - 10 and

78 = 6W so

W = 13. The width is 13 inches and the length is

L = 2(13) - 5 so the length is

L = 21 inches.

C. p=4+200d
D. p=4d+200

Answers

Answer:

A. d=4p+200

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason why this is, is because d is the total amount, equaling to 4 times p due to the fact that it is $4 for each person that attends.

Given two consecutive even integers whose sum is 186, find the smaller of the two integers.

Answers

Answer:

92 is the smaller even integer

Step-by-step explanation:

x = first even integer

x+2 = second even integer

(x) + (x+2) = 186

Combine like terms

2x+2 = 186

Subtract 2 from each side

2x+2-2 =186-2

2x = 184

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 184/2

x = 92

x+2 = 94

Step-by-step explanation:

let,two even consecutive number be x and x+2

now,according to the question

x+x+2=186

or, 2x=186-2

or, 2x= 184

or, x= 184/2

:- x= 92

Hence,

x=92 and x+2= 94

two even consecutive numbers are 92 and 94

During the hours from 9:00 PM on Friday to 9:00 pm on Sunday, Kristin spent 1/3 of her time sleeping, 1/8 of her time raking leaves, 1/12 of her time reading a book, 1/16 of her time working on her science project, 1/24 of her time riding in the car, and 1/48 of her time watching television. How many hours in this time period remained for all other activities?

Answers

Answer:

16 hrs of Sleep

6 hrs of Raking Leaves

4 hrs reading

3 hrs science project

2 hrs riding car

1 hr watching tv

Step-by-step explanation:

Its division on all of them, 9:00 PM on Friday to 9:00 PM on Sunday, would be 2 days, there being 24 hrs on one day, and since its 2 days, its 48, then you divide 48 by the denominator, and there you should get your timed answer.

For example, for the 1/3, you'll divide the denominator (the bottom number, in this case 3) by 48, since that's the whole amount, and the 3 is the amount of time they spent out of that whole. The division is written 48 ÷ 3 = 16

When f(x)=4, what is the value of x?
O zero
O 2
O 3
O4

Answers

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) is the range and values of x the domain

When f(x) = 4 the corresponding value of x in the domain is x = 2

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

this might not be the best explanation but this is how I thought of it.

f(0)=4?   any number multiplied by zero equals zero so it is not the first answer.

f(2)=4?   if f were to be 2, then 2*2 can equal 4 so this is a pretty good answer.

f(3)=4?  there isn't a whole number you can multiply with 3 that will make 4 so this is not the answer.

f(4)=4?  if f were to be 1 then this could be a possible answer.

so we know that it is either the 2nd or 4th answer. look at the table. if you look, 2 forms into 4 (because they multiplied 2 by 2). but 4 doesn't remain at 4 (because they did not multiply it by 1). so we know the answer is 2.

A county fair sold 1,750 tickets, each of which was either an adult or children's ticket, and earned a total of \$27,000. The fair earned 25\% more from adult tickets than from children's tickets, but sold 25\% fewer adult tickets than children's tickets. How much did a children's ticket cost

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number children tickets = c

Number of adult tickets = 75% of c = 0.75c

c + 0.75c = 1750

1.75c = 1750

   c = 1750/1.75 = 1000

Number of children = 1000

Number of adults = 75% of 1000  = 750

Cost of adult ticket = $ x

Cost of child ticket = 75% of x = 0.75x

Cost of 750 adult ticket = 750x

Cost of 1000 children ticket = 1000 * 0.75x = 750x

750x + 750x = 27000

              1500x = 27000

                      x = 27000/1500

x = $ 18

Cost of adult ticket =  $ 18

Cost of children ticket = 75% of 18 = 0.75 * 18 = $ 13.5

Cost of children's ticket = $ 13.50
