Answers

Answer 1

Answer: the width of the rectangle is 14 units

Let's denote the length of the rectangle to be x and the width to be y.

The first sentence tells us that the length, x , is "4 less than twice the width". "4 less than" implies we subtract 4 from some quantity. x = 2y - 4.

In the question given that the perimeter of the rectangle is 76 units

Perimeter of a rectangle is 2( length + breadth )

According to the question :

76 = 2(x + y)

76 = 2(2y – 4 + y)

76 = 2(3y – 4 )

76 = 6y – 8

84 = 6y

y = 14 units

putting the value of in x = 2y – 4

x = 2(14) – 4

x = 24 units

The area and Perimeter of (ΔABC) are respectively; 17.5 square units and 24.16 units

What is the area and Perimeter of the Triangle?

The formula for the area of a triangle ABC with 3 coordinates is;

Area (ΔABC) = (¹/₂) |x₁(y₂ − y₃) + x₂(y₃ − y₁) + x₃(y₁ − y₂)|

The coordinates are;

(x₁, y₁) = (-6, 6)

(x₂, y₂) = (2, 3)

(x₃, y₃) = (-3, -2)

Thus;

Area (ΔABC) = (¹/₂) |-6(3 − (-2)) + 2(-2 − 6) + -3(3 − 6)|

Area (ΔABC) = (¹/₂)|-30 - 16 + 9|

Area (ΔABC) = ¹/₂ * |-35|

We are taking absolute value and so;

Area (ΔABC) = ¹/₂ * 35

Area (ΔABC) = 17.5 square units

To get the perimeter, we will use distance formula between two coordinates and we have;

AB = 8.544

BC = 7.071

AC = 8.544

Thus;

Perimeter = 2(8.544) + 7.071

Perimeter = 24.16 units

a rectangle has a width w and a length that is two more than its width. what is the perimeter of the rectangle? write and simplify an expression. a general expression for the perimeter is (select) . the simplified expression i

Answers

The perimeter of the rectangle is 4 + 4w, where w is the width of the rectangle.

In this question,

a rectangle has a width w

Let l be the length of the rectangle.

A  length that is two more than its width.

⇒ l = 2 + w

We know that the perimeter of the rectangle is P = 2 × (length + width)

So, for the length l = 2 + w and width w, the perimeter of the rectangle would be,

P = 2 × (w + (2 + w))

We simplify above expression.

P = 2 × (2 + 2w)

P = 4 + 4w

Therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle is 4 + 4w, where w is the width of the rectangle.

Which axis is triangle ABC reflected across?

Triangle ABC is reflected across the y-axis. The two congruent triangles are mirrored across the y-axis, thus they are reflected.

Triangle ABC is reflected across the y-axis. The two congruent triangles are mirrored across the y-axis, thus they are reflected.

6: Give the translation rule, any coordinate point will shift 4 units to the left and rise up 8 units.

What is the  translation rule

The translation rule describes how each coordinate point of the original triangle ABC moves to form the reflected triangle after the reflection across the y-axis.

To reflect a triangle across the y-axis, all you need to do is change the sign of the x-coordinate while keeping  the y-coordinate the same. Using this rule, every point on the original triangle ABC will move 4 units to the left and go up 8 units to create the reflected triangle A'B'C' after the reflection.

a concert manager counted 650 ticket receipts the day after a concert. the price for a student ticket was $11.50, and the price for an adult ticket was $13.00. the register confirms that $8,112.50 was taken in. how many student tickets and adult tickets were sold?

Answers

Based on the calculations, the number of student tickets and adult tickets that were sold are 225 tickets and 425 tickets respectively.

Given the following data:

Total ticket receipts = 650 tickets.

The price for a student ticket = $11.50.

The price for an adult ticket = $13.00.

Total revenue = $8,112.50.

Let T represent the total ticket.Let S represent price for a student ticket.Let A represent price for an adult ticket.Let R represent the total revenue.

What is an expression?

An expression can be defined as a mathematical equation which is used to show the relationship existing between two or more variables and numerical quantities.

How many student tickets and adult tickets were sold?

In order to determine the number of student tickets and adult tickets that were sold, we would translate the word problem into an algebraic expression as follows:

A + S = 650                              ......equation 1.

11.5S + 13A = 8,112.50              ......equation 2.

From eqn. 1, we have:

S = 650 - A                          ......equation 3.

Substituting eqn. 3 into eqn. 2, we have:

11.5(650 - A) + 13A = 8,112.50

7,475 - 11.5 A + 13A = 8,112.50

1.5A = 8,112.50 - 7,475

1.5A = 637.5

A = 637.5/1.5

A = 425 tickets.

For the student tickets, we have:

S = 650 - A

S = 650 - 425

S = 225 tickets.
