b. If the length of AB=3x–21, DC=34, BC=4y+32, and AD=62, find the values of x and y.
c. Find the perimeter and area of rectangle ABCD.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) no angles are described or shown
__
b) Opposite sides are the same length, so we have ...
3x -21 = 34
3x = 55 . . . . . . . add 21
x = 55/3 = 18 1/3 . . . . . divide by 3
and
4y +32 = 62
4y = 30 . . . . . . . . subtract 32
y = 15/2 = 7 1/2 . . . . divide by 4
__
c) The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths, so is ...
P = 2(L+W) = 2(62 +34) = 192 . . . units
The area is the product of adjacent side lengths, so is ...
A = LW = 62·34 = 2108 . . . square units
summer. He wants to have at least $200 in the account by the
end of summer. He withdraws $25 a week for his cell phone
bill.
Write an inequality that represents Keith's situation.
Answer:
Explanation:
Translate every verbal statement into an algebraic statement,
1. Keith has $500 in a savings account at the beginning of the summer.
2. He wants to have at least $200 in the account by the end of summer.
3. He withdraws $25 a week for his cell phone bill.
4. Write an inequality that represents Keith's situation.
With that inequality you can calculate how many week will pass before his account has less than the amount he wants to have in the account by the end of summer:
That represents that he can afford spending $ 25 a week during 12 weeks to have at least $ 200 in the account.
