Given:
The length of a rectangle is 3 cm less than its width.
The area of the rectangle is 270 cm².
To find:
The dimensions of the rectangle.
Solution:
Let x be the width of the rectangle. Then,
[tex]\text{Length}=x-3[/tex]
Area of a rectangle is:
[tex]\text{Area}=\text{Length}\times \text{width}[/tex]
[tex]270=(x-3)(x)[/tex]
[tex]270=x^2-3x[/tex]
[tex]0=x^2-3x-270[/tex]
Splitting the middle term, we get
[tex]x^2-18x+15x-270=0[/tex]
[tex]x(x-18)+15(x-18)=0[/tex]
[tex](x-18)(x+15)=0[/tex]
[tex]x=18,-15[/tex]
Width of the rectangle cannot be negative. So, the only value of x is 18.
[tex]Width=18[/tex]
[tex]Length=18-3[/tex]
[tex]Length=15[/tex]
Therefore, the length of the rectangle is 15 cm and the width of the rectangle is 18 cm.

A cylinder has a radius of 4 inches and a height of 5 inches. If the radius of the cylinder is tripled and the height remains the same to create a new cylinder, what will be the difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders? Answer in terms of Pi.
Answer:
336π in²Step-by-step explanation:
Cylinder 1
r₁= 4 inh = 5 inCylinder 2
r₂ = 3*4 = 12 inh = 5 inSurface area of cylinders:
S = 2πr(r + h)S₁ = 2π*4*(4 + 5) = 72π in²S₂ = 2π*12*(12 + 5) = 408π in²The difference is:
S₂ - S₁ = 408π - 72π = 336π in²A cylinder has a radius of 4 inches and a height of 5 inches. If the radius of the cylinder is tripled and the height remains the same to create a new cylinder, what will be the difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders ? Answer in terms of Pi.
Answer:-Given:-A cylinder has a radius of 4 inches and a height of 5 inches.
To Find:-If the radius of the cylinder is tripled and the height remains the same to create a new cylinder, what will be the difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders ?
Solution:-Let in case of 1st cylinder,[tex] \bullet [/tex] Radius [tex] (r_1) [/tex] is 4 inches
[tex] \bullet [/tex] Height is 5 inches
And in case of 2nd cylinder,[tex] \bullet [/tex] Radius [tex] (r_2) [/tex] is 3 × 4 = 12 inches [as in the question it is given that the radius of the cylinder is tripled]
[tex] \bullet [/tex] Height is 5 inches
Now,
Surface area [tex] (s_1) [/tex] of 1st cylinder
is 2πr(r + h) = 2π × 4(4 + 5)
= 8π(9)
= 72π sq inches
Surface area [tex] (s_2) [/tex] of 2nd cylinder
is 2πr(r + h) = 2π × 12(12 + 5)
= 24π(17)
= 408π sq inches
[tex] \therefore [/tex] The difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders is = [tex] (s_2 \: - \: s_1) [/tex] = (408π - 72π) = 336π sq inches
The difference in the surface areas of the two cylinders is 336π sq inches. [Answer]If you read 340 pages in 45 minutes how many pages do read in 1 minute
Answer:
7 5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
340/45 = 7 5/9
Answer:
7.6 pages
Step-by-step explanation:
Okie, so this is a standard unit rate problem, so what you're going to do is divide the number of whatever, in this case, pages, by the time, so:
340 ÷ 45 = 7.6 (rounded)
So you read 7.5 pages per minute
(which is pretty impressive if it's a chapter book)

visitors spend 1/3 of their time waiting in line for rides. Of the santos family spends 53/4 hours at the park how long do they wait in line
Answer: 1 11/12 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Since visitors spend 1/3 of their time waiting in line for rides and the Santos family spends 5¾hours at the park.
The tune spent waiting in line will be calculated by multiplying ⅓ by 5¾. This will be:
= ⅓ × 5¾
= ⅓ × 23/4
= 23/12
= 1 11/12 hours
Therefore, they'll wait in the park for 1 11/12 hours

Identify the slope and the y-intercept of the following equation 1/2x - 1 = y
b =
m =
uto: Which is the “first point” given, the slope or the y-intercept ?
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
Our equation is y = 1/2x - 1. This mirrors our standard linear parent function of y = mx + b.
m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
From this, we can see that
m = 1/2
and
b = -1.
The first point given is the y-intercept because with y-intercepts, we know the coordinates right away. A y-intercept's coordinates will always have an x-value of 0. This allows it to lie on the y-axis, hence the name. Our y-value of the coordinates is given with the b value of the equation. Therefore, by simply looking at the end of the equation, we know our first point.
Hope this helps!

An urban planner wants to create a city block. The city block will be 50 feet by 75 feet. What will the dimensions of his scale drawing be if the drawing has a scale factor of 1 cm = 12.5 ft?
Answer:
The dimensions of his scale drawing = 4 cm by 6 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
An urban planner wants to create a city block. The city block will be 50 feet by 75 feet. What will the dimensions of his scale drawing be if the drawing has a scale factor of 1 cm = 12.5 ft?
From the above question
12.5 ft = 1 cm
Hence
For 50 feet
12.5 feet = 1 cm
50 feet = x
Cross Multiply
12.5 × x = 50
x = 50/12.5
x = 4 cm
For 75 feet
12.5 feet = 1 cm
75 feet = x
Cross Multiply
12.5 × x = 75
x = 75/12.5
x = 6 cm
The dimensions of his scale drawing = 4 cm by 6 cm

Is (3.8) a solution of the system?
Answer: No, 3.8 is not a solution.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set -5x+1 equal to 3x-2
-5x+1=3x-2 subtract 3x making it -8x+1=-2 subtract one from both sides and get -8x=-3 divide by -8 and get -3/-8 which equals in decimal form 0.375
Check it
plug in 0.375 for X
-5(0.375)+1= -0.875
3(0.375)-2 = -0.875
It checks out ^_^

Isaac has a points card for a movie theater. He receives 45 rewards points just for signing up. He earns 11.5 points for each visit to the movie theater. He needs 160 points for a free movie ticket.
Answer: 10 visit
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
45 Points earned by signing up
11.5 points earned for each visit to the theatre
160 points are needed for a movie ticket
Suppose, after x visit he gets enough points to buy a movie ticket
[tex]\therefore 160=45+11.5x\\\Rightarrow 115=11.5x\\\Rightarrow x=10[/tex]
So, after 10th visit, he earns a movie ticket
The sum of two numbers is 12 and there diffrence is 8 find the 2 numbers
Answer:
10 and 2
Step-by-step explanation:
a + b = 12
a - b = 8
let 'a' = 8 + b
substitute:
8 + b + b = 12
2b + 8 = 12
2b = 4
b = 2
a must be 10 then

Which of the following statements about a rhombus is not true?
A rhombus is a parallelogram.
A rhombus has two sets of parallel sides.
A rhombus has four sides of equal length.
A rhombus has four right angles.
Answer:
„A rhombus has four right anglesv” → is not true.Step-by-step explanation:
This is a parallelogram. It is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. Here, the opposite angles are alternate, that is, they have togheter 180°.
Rhombus
This is a rhombus. It is a quadrilateral whose four sides all have the same length. Here, the diagonals of a rhombus intersect at equal angles.
A rhombus has opposite angles equal and the figure formed by joining the midpoints of the sides of a rhombus is a rectangle, and vice versa. It has an inscribed circle.
Good luck:)

A man's salary is increased by $925 to $1036. Find the percentage increase. What would have been his new salary if the increase had been 16%
Answer:
See the solutions below
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial Salary= $925
Final salary= $1036
% increase= Change/initial *100
substitute
% increase= 1036-925/925 *100
% increase=111/925 *100
% increase=0.12 *100
% increase=12%
2. Let us find 16% of $925
=16/100*925
=0.16*925
=$148
Hence the salary would have been
=148+925
=$1073
Penny is going to fly her plane to her sister's house, which is 544.32 miles away. Penny's airplane flies at an average speed of 672 miles per hour. How long does it take Penny to fly to her sister's house?
Answer:
0.81 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Distance= 544.32 miles
Speed= 672 miles per hour.
We know that
Speed= distance/time
Substitute
672= 544.32/time
cross multiply
time*672= 544.32
time= 544.32/672
time= 0.81 hour
A sphere has a volume of approximately 24,416.64 cubic inches (using 3.14 for ).
The diameter of the sphere is ___ inches.
Answer:
diameter = 36 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
V = 4π r^3/3
24416.64 = (4(3.14) r^3)/3
73249.92 = 12.56 r^3
r^3 = 5832
r = cube root of 5832 = 18
diameter = 36 in.
