One side of a rectangle is 3 inches shorter than the other side, and the perimeter is 54 inches. What are the dimensions of the rectangle?

Which of the following equations could be used to solve the problem?
A. 2 x + 2( x - 3) = 54
B. 2 x - 3 = 54
C. 2 x + 2 x - 3 = 54

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two sides of the rectangle be x and y.

Then the perimeter will be:

[tex]2x+2y=P[/tex]

Since the perimeter is 54:

[tex]2x+2y=54[/tex]

We know that one side of the rectangle is 3 inches shorter than the other.

Let y be the shorter side. It is 3 less than x.

Therefore:

[tex]y=x-3[/tex]

Then by substitution, we acquire:

[tex]2x+2(x-3)=54[/tex]

The answer is A.

A stainless steel pipe is used as a vent over a restaurant stove. The pipe is 6 feet long and its diameter is 12 inches. The pipe is open at both ends. To the nearest whole number, how many square feet of steel is the outer surface of the pipe?

Answers

Answer: 18 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, first we need to find the circumference because that is the outside of the pipe.

Circumference = 2 x Pi x Radius

Radius is half of diameter.

So we plug in all the values in to the formula.

2 x Pi x 6 inches = Circumference

12Pi = 37.69911184 inches

37 inches to feet = about 3 feet.

3 x 6 = 18 feet.

Fourteen of the people signed up for the ski classes are beginners. If 56% of those signed up are beginners, how many people signed up for classes?

Answers

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

An unknown number of people signed up for the class. Let the total number of people who signed up be x.

56% of the people who signed up are beginners. 14 people are beginners.

That means that

56% of the people who signed up is 14 people.

56% of x = 14

56% * x = 14

0.56x = 14

Divide both sides by 0.56.

0.56x/0.56 = 14/0.56

x = 25

In 2009, a town's population was about 9,000 residents. In 2014, the population was about 12,500 residents. Which linear model represents the town's population, p, as a function of t, the time in years after 2007

Answers

Answer:

Population function (Based on 2007) =  7,600 + 700n

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Population in 2009 = 9,000

Population in 2014 = 12,500

Computation:

Increase in population per year = [12,500 - 9,000] / 5

Increase in population per year = 700

Population in 2007 = 9,000 - [2 x 700]

Population in 2007 = 7,600

Population function (Based on 2007) =  7,600 + 700n

n = number of year

Pls mark brainliest.

Answer:

a = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

4a - 7 = 5a + 1

subtract 1 from both sides of the equation

4a - 7 - 1 = 5a + 1 - 1

4a - 7 - 1 = 5a

4a - 8 = 5a

subtract 4a from both sides of the equation

4a - 4a - 8 = 5a - 4a

-8 = 5a - 4a

-8 = 1a

-8 = a

Over what interval is f(x) negative? Justify your answer.

Answers

Answer in interval notation is  (-3, 1)

This is the same as saying -3 < x < 1

=====================================================

Explanation:

Since y = f(x), this means we're looking for points on the red curve such that they have a negative y coordinate. Visually, we're looking for points that are below the horizontal x axis.

These points are shown in the diagram below. I've marked the section we're after in blue. This blue section spans from x = -3 to x = 1. We exclude both endpoints because each x value leads to f(x) = 0, but we want f(x) values smaller than zero.

You can split it to a triangle along with a rectangle underneath.
Formula for calculating triangle:
height x base divide by 2
Firstly we will have to calculate the triangle.
0.8x1.8/2 ( since 1.8 matches the base of the triangle we are looking for) which equals to =0.72 m
Now let’s calculate the rectangle:
1.8 x 2.1 =3.78

Finally add them both together which is:
0.72+ 3.78= 4.5 m

Hummingbirds have unusually large hearts for their body size. If a person's heart were as

big as a hummingbird's, his or her heart would weigh as much as a large dog.

Information you will need:

An average hummingbird weighs 0.3524 ounces and has a heart that weighs 0.00875

ounces.

1 pound = 16 ounces

The average weight of a large dog is usually more than 80 pounds.

Leo weighs 192 pounds.

a.) How much would Leo's heart weigh if it were the same ratio as a hummingbird's?

Show your work on your paper.

b.) is the original claim true or false? Justify your reasoning here along with your answer.

Answers

Answer: 4.8lbs, This claim is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Leo weighs 192 pounds. Then Leo's heart weight will be 76.258 ounces. So, its claim is false.

What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a group of sequentially ordered numbers a and b expressed as a/b, where b is never equal to zero. When two objects are equal, a statement is said to be proportional.

Hummingbirds have abnormally huge hearts for their body size. In the event that an individual's heart was essentially as large as a hummingbird's, their heart would weigh as much as an enormous canine's. A typical hummingbird weighs 0.3524 ounces and has a heart that weighs 0.00875 ounces.

The ratio of heart to weight is given as,

Ratio = 0.00875 / 0.3524

Ratio = 0.024829

The average weight of a large dog is usually more than 80 pounds. Leo weighs 192 pounds. Then Leo's heart weight is calculated as,

⇒ 0.024829 x 192 x 16

⇒ 76.28 ounces

Their heart weight of Leo is less than the weight of the dog. So, its claim is false.
