5. A rectangular pool ha a length that is 13 - 1

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: Good evening Brian,

For this problem, let's look at what we're given.  So we have a pool with a length that is 13 m (meters) longer than its width, and we're given the perimeter, or distance around the entire pool, which is 74 m.

We know that the pool has a rectangular shape and that the perimeter of a rectangle is width + length + width + length ⇒ 2(W) + 2(L).

Given the information provided, we can rewrite the equation to fit this problem.  Since we're told that the length is equal to 13 m + the width, so we can represent the length as W +13 m.  We can now rewrite the perimeter equation to be:

2(w) + 2 (w + 13 m) ⇒ 2(w) + 2(w) + 2(13 m) ⇒ 4(w) + 26 m = 74 m.

We're down to one variable now so this should be easy.  Subtract 26 m from both sides,

4(w) = 48 m

Now divide each side by 4 in order to find the width.

w = 12 m

-Hope this helps!

A state lottery commission analyzes the ticket purchasing patterns of its citizens. The following expression is developed to help officials calculate the likely number of people who will buy tickets for a certain size jackpot. 81a^2-36b^2
Factor the expression completely.

Answers

So,

We first factor out the GCF.

9(9a^2-4b^2)

Now, we notice that the expression is a difference of two perfect squares.
9(3a+2b)(3a-2b)

The expression is now factored completely.

9(9a^2-4)

9(3a+2)(3a-2)

A box of cereal is shaped like a rectangular prism. The box is 20 centimeters long and 30 centimeters high. It's volume is 3600 cubic centimeters. Find the width of the box.So basically I need the width using length height and volume.

Answers

With a rectangular prism with a length of 20 cm, height of 30 cm, and volume of 3600 cm, first set up the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism.

V=bwh

Then, plug in your known numbers

3600=20*30*w

Simplify

3600=600w

Use inverse operations to solve for w

3600/600=6

The width is 6 cm

Answer:

1700 cm

Step-by-step explanation

5 x 30 = 150

the total area  of the sides is 2 x 150 = 300

the bottom and the top are both 5 by 20 rectangles

so 5 x 20 is 100

and 2 x 100 = 200

the back and the front are both 30 by 20

30 x 20 = 600

6000 x 2 =1200

300 + 200 + 1200 = 1700

30% of ____ is 90. Enter the unknown value that makes this statement true

Answers

300 is the unknown value you're looking for.

°° Why?

Great question! Let's find out! ↓   ↓   ↓

If 90 ÷ 3 = 30, then multiply 30 by 10, which makes 300 to get your answer. It makes perfect sense, doesn't it? :)

So, just fill in the blank!

30% of 300 is 90.

HAHA! We figured it out!

↑   ↑   ↑  Hope this helps! :D

So 90 divided by 3 is 30 so you multiply 30 by 10 and get 300. The answer is 300 in other words
