Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Perimeter =2(L+B)

Area of the patio=1116 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a patio in the shape of rectangle and fenced on all sides with 134 feet of fencing.

Let length  of patio=x feet

Width of patio=x-5 feet

We know that perimeter of rectangle =2(L+B)

Substitute the values then we get

2(x+x-5)=134

2(2x-5)=134

4x-10=134

4x=134+10

4x=144

x=(144)/(4)

x=36

Length of patio=36 feet

width of patio=36-5=31 feet

Area of rectangle =L* B

using the formula of area of rectangle

Area of the patio=36* 31=1116 square feet

Mathew is watching a car race on TV. His favorite car covered 10 laps of 3.6 miles each in 18 minutes. What is average speed of the car in miles per hour?

Answers

In the given question, all the necessary information's are already provided. Using these information's it is easy to find the average speed of the car in miles per hour. It is given that the car covers 10 laps in 18 minutes and each lap is 3.6 miles in length.
Total distance covered by the car = (10 * 3.6) miles
                                                     = 36 miles
Now we have to convert the time from minutes to hours. So
18 minutes = 18/60 hours
                   = 3/10 hours
Now we can easily calculate the average speed of the favorite car of Mathew.
Average Speed = 36 * (10/3) miles/hour
                           = 120 miles/ hour

What type of three-dimensional figure will this net make?

Triangular prism is the three - dimensional figure will be made by this  net.

What is three - dimensional figure?

"A three-dimensional shape can be defined as a solid figure or an object or shape that has three dimensions – length, width, and height."

What is a net?

The net is a pattern we can cut out and fold to create a 3-dimensional figure.

According to the figure

There are 2 triangular bases and 3 rectangular sides.

As we know

A triangular prism is a polyhedron made up of two triangular bases and three rectangular sides.

It is a three-dimensional shape that has three side faces and two base faces, connected to each other through the edges.

If the sides are rectangular, then it is called the right triangular prism else it is said to be an oblique triangular prism. If the bases are equilateral and sides are squares, then it is called a uniform or regular triangular prism.

Like other Prisms, the two bases here are parallel and congruent to each other. In total, it has 5 faces, 6 vertices and 9 edges.

Hence, triangular prism is the three - dimensional figure will be made by this net.
