The perimeter of a rectangle is 80x. The base is two times the height. In terms of x, what are the dimensions of the rectangle?
a.
h = 10x; b = 10x
c.
h = 10.3x, b = 20.6x
b.
h = 13.3x; b = 26.6x
d.
h = 5x; b = 25x

Answers

By definition we have that the perimeter of a rectangle is given by:
 P = 2b + 2h
 Where,
 b: base
 h: height
 Also, as a data of the problem we have:
 base is two times the height:
 b = 2h
 Substituting we have:
 P = 2 (2h) + 2h
 Clearing h:
 6h = P
 h = P / 6
 h = (80x) / 6
 h = (40/3) x
 The base will be
 b = 2h
 b = (80/3) x
 Answer:
 the dimensions of the rectangle are
 b = (80/3) x
 h = (40/3) x
 b. h = 13.3x; b = 26.6x
Answer:
h = 13.3x; b = 26.6x

Explanation:
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(base+height)
80x = 2(base+height)
base + height = 40x ........> I

Now, we are given that the base is 2 times the height, this means that:
base = 2*height ..........> II

Substitute with II in I:
base + height = 40x
2*height + height = 40x
3*height = 40x
height = 13.3x 

Substitute with the height in equation II to get the base as follows:
base = 2*height 
base = 2 * 13.3x = 26.6x

The base of a parallelogram is 10 inches the height is 2 inches more than half the base find the area

Answers

Given is a parallelogram whose base is b = 10 inches and it says height is 2 more than half-value of base i.e. h = 2 + (b ÷ 2).

So height is h = 2 + (10 ÷ 2) = 2 + 5

⇒ h = 7 inches.

We know the formula for area of parallelogram is given as follows :-

Area of parallelogram = base x height

Area of parallelogram = 10 inches x 7 inches

Area of parallelogram = 70 squared inches.

Hence, the final answer is 70 squared inches.

Final answer:

To get the area of the parallelogram, first determine the height, which is 5 inches plus 2 inches, totaling 7 inches. Using the formula (base × height), the area is calculated as 10 inches times 7 inches, resulting in 70 square inches.

Explanation:

To find the area of the parallelogram, we need to identify its base and height. The base is already given as 10 inches. Next, we calculate the height, which the problem states as '2 inches more than half the base.' First, we find half of the base: 10 inches / 2 = 5 inches. Then, add 2 inches to get the height: 5 inches + 2 inches = 7 inches. Now we have the height of the parallelogram.

Using the formula for the area of a parallelogram (base × height), we can now calculate the area.

Area = 10 inches × 7 inches = 70 square inches.

Thus, the area of the parallelogram is 70 square inches.

2. PB and J Array Ken has made a selection of square jam sandwiches for party, which he arranges in a single layer on the table in perfect rectangle. Sarah has brought along the same number of square peanut butter sandwiches, which she puts out, also as a single layer, to form a border vA (one sandwich wide) around Ken's Given that all of the sandwiches are the same size and they are all used, how many sandwiches could each person possibly have made?

Answers

perimetre + 4 = area
Each person must have made 24 sandwiches.

Let's assume Ken arranged his sandwiches in a rectangular shape with length 'L' and width 'W'. Now Sarah arranged her sandwiches to form a border around Ken's rectangle. The solution diagram is attached below.

Ken needs as much sandwiches as area of rectangle i.e. number of Ken's sandwiches would be = LW.

It is clear that Sarah needs as much sandwiches as perimeter of rectangle and extra four sandwiches to put on corners. It means number of Sarah's sandwiches would be = 2·(L+W) + 4.

Given that all of the sandwiches are the same size and they are all used.

Ken and Sarah bought same number of sandwiches. So we need to solve the following equation :-

Number of Ken's sandwiches = Number of Sarah's sandwiches

LW = 2·(L+W) + 4

Using trial and error approach, we get 6 x 4 = 2 x (6 + 4) + 4.

So number of Ken's sandwiches would be LW = 6 x 4 = 24 sandwiches.

Hence, final answer is "Each person could have 24 sandwiches".

If a + 4b = 33 and 6a + 3b = 51, what is the value of a + b?

(I got 5 but it was wrong)

Answers

b = 7, a = 5. So a + b is 13.

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the problem asks for $a+b$, we look for a way to isolate $a+b$ from the given equations.

Notice that $a + 6a = 7a$ and $4b + 3b = 7b$. This gives us the key to isolating $a + b$. We simply add the two equations together:\begin{align*}

7a + 7b &= 84 \\

7(a + b) &= 84 \\

a + b &= \frac{84}{7} \\

a + b &= \boxed{12}

\end{align*}

The kinetic energy K (in joules) of a falling apple is represented by K=v squared divided by 2 where v is the speed of the apple (in meters per second). How fast is the apple traveling when the kinetic energy is 32 joules?

Answers

do subsitution


energy (k)=32

so
32=(1/2)v^2
(I'm pretty sure it is K=(1/2)mv^2, but ok)
times 2 both sides
64=v^2
sqrt both sides
8=v

8m/s is velocity

Answer:

8 meters per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to substitute k=32 in the formula given and solve for v.

K= (v ^ 2) /2

Substituting K=32

32 = (v ^ 2) /2

Solving for v:

32x2= v ^ 2

64 =v ^ 2

√64 =v

8 =v

v= 8 meters per second

When the kinetic energy is 32 joules, the apple is traveling at a speed of 8 m/s.

A spider ate 25% more bugs this month than last month. The spider ate 8 bugs last month. How many bugs did the spider eat this month

Answers

To answer this question you will utilize your reading skills and knowledge of how to compute with percents.  You need to read carefully and see that we need to find out what 25% of last months number of bugs is.  Using math we will convert 25% into an number we can calculate with (either a decimal or a fractions).  I like fractions in this case because 1/4 can be easily multiplied by 8.  You may also multiple 0.25 times 8 if you prefer decimal calculations.  Either way, the answer is 2.  This is how many more bugs the spider ate, so to find the total for this month we add 8 and 2 to get 10 bugs.

Bill pays $49 for an item after it has been discounted 30%. What was the original price of the item?

Answers

If an item has been discounted 30%, then it is currently worth 70% of the original price. This tells us that $49 is 70% of the original price. Therefore, you need to divide $49 by 70% to get your answer (you have to work backwards; remember that you would have multiplied the original number by 0.7 to get 49):
49÷(70/100)= $70

Rick shared his bag of grapes with his friends. He gave 2/10 of the bag to Melissa and 4/10 of the bag to Ryan. What fraction of the bag of grapes does Rick have left?

Answers

Final answer:

After giving away 2/10 of his grapes to Melissa and 4/10 to Ryan, Rick has 4/10 of his bag of grapes left.

Explanation:

Rick gave away part of his bag of grapes to his friends: 2/10 to Melissa and 4/10 to Ryan. To find out what fraction of the bag he has left, we need to add together the fractions that he gave away and then subtract this from the whole bag, which is represented by the fraction 1 (or 10/10).

Rick gave away:
Melissa: 2/10
Ryan: 4/10
Total given away: 2/10 + 4/10 = 6/10

Fraction of the bag Rick has left:
1 (or 10/10) - 6/10 = 4/10

Therefore, Rick has 4/10 of the bag of grapes left after sharing with his friends.

Final answer:

To find out how much of the bag of grapes Rick has left, we need to subtract the fractions that he gave to Melissa and Ryan from 1. Rick has 2/5 of the bag of grapes left.

Explanation:

To find out how much of the bag of grapes Rick has left, we need to subtract the fractions that he gave to Melissa and Ryan from 1.

Given that Rick gave 2/10 of the bag to Melissa and 4/10 of the bag to Ryan, we can calculate the fraction of the bag he has left by subtracting these two fractions from 1:

1 - 2/10 - 4/10 = 1 - 6/10 = 4/10 = 2/5

Therefore, Rick has 2/5 of the bag of grapes left.

Two angles are complementary. If one angle measures 32 degrees, what is the measure of the second angle?
Select one:
A. 48 degrees
B. 148 degrees
C. 58 degrees
D. 68 degrees

Answers

Final answer:

Two angles are complementary if they add up to 90 degrees. If one angle measures 32 degrees, the other angle measures 58 degrees, which is found by subtracting 32 from 90.

Explanation:

The question is asking about complementary angles, which are two angles that add up to 90 degrees. If one angle measures 32 degrees, we can find the measure of the second angle by subtracting 32 degrees from 90 degrees since the two angles must sum to 90 degrees.

The calculation would be: 90 degrees - 32 degrees = 58 degrees.

Therefore, the measure of the second angle is 58 degrees, making the correct answer:

C. 58 degrees

Answer:

Option: A is the correct answer.

         A)     change  direction but remain parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when same rigid transformation is applied  to two lines which are parallel to each other ,then after rigid transformation they will behave the same i.e. same relationship hold between the two the only difference will be in their location.

Hence, when the both the parallel lines are rotated 90° clockwise then the direction of the line will change but they will remain parallel.
