By definition we have that the perimeter of a rectangle is given by:
 P = 2b + 2h
 Where,
 b: base
 h: height
 Also, as a data of the problem we have:
 base is two times the height:
 b = 2h
 Substituting we have:
 P = 2 (2h) + 2h
 Clearing h:
 6h = P
 h = P / 6
 h = (80x) / 6
 h = (40/3) x
 The base will be
 b = 2h
 b = (80/3) x
 Answer:
 the dimensions of the rectangle are
 b = (80/3) x
 h = (40/3) x
 b. h = 13.3x; b = 26.6x

Answer:
<span>h = 13.3x; b = 26.6x
</span>
Explanation:
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(base+height)
80x = 2(base+height)
base + height = 40x ........> I

Now, we are given that the base is 2 times the height, this means that:
base = 2*height ..........> II

Substitute with II in I:
base + height = 40x
2*height + height = 40x
3*height = 40x
height = 13.3x 

Substitute with the height in equation II to get the base as follows:
base = 2*height 
base = 2 * 13.3x = 26.6x

Hope this helps :)

I see that your new product is available for 412.50 on the website. How much is it if I buy it in the store? The website is a 25
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer with explanation:

Price of Product on the Website = $ 412.50

It is given that, product is offered at a discount of 25% on the website.

Let actual price of product on the store = $ x

Writing the above statement in terms of equation

→Price at store - Discount= Price at Website

x-\frac{25\times x}{100}=412.50\\\\ \frac{75 x}{100}=412.50\\\\x=\frac{41250}{75}\\\\x=550

Price at store of that Product = $ 550

he temperature measured in Kelvin (K) is the temperature measured in Celsius (C) increased by 273.15. This can be modeled by the
PIT_PIT [208]
We have that
<span>K = C + 273.15
solve for C
subtract 273.15 both sides
K-273.15=C
C=K-273.15

the answer is
</span>C=K-273.15<span>

At the time of her grandson's birth, a grandmother deposits $12,000.00 in an account that pays 2% compound monthly. What will be that value of the account at the child's twenty-first birthday, assuming that no other deposits or withdrawls are made during the period.
---
A(t) = P(1+(r/n))^(nt)
---
A(21) = 12000(1+(0.02/12))^(12*21)
---
A(21) = 12000(1.5214)
---
A(21) = #18,257.15

A school replaced 20% of it computers with new ones . what the total number of computers in the school if 55 computers were repl
sladkih [1.3K]
The total is 275 because 100% divided by 20% is 5 and if 20%= 55 then that means that 55 goes into 100% 5 times so you multiply 55 by 5 to get 275. Hope I helped! Please rate me as the brainliest!
