Answer:

lenght=57

width=33

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated using the formula

P=2(w+l) where P is the perimeter, w is the width and l is the length.

We know

P=180

lenght (l) = x (unknown value)

width (w)= x-24

Now we change these values in the formula

180=2((x-24)+x)

180=2(x-24+x)

180=2(2x-24)

180=4x-48

180+48=4x

228=4x

x=228/4

x=57

Therefore

P=180

w= x-24 =57-24 <em>=33</em>

<em>l=57</em>

To confirm:

P=2(w+l)=2(33+57)=2(90)=180

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

Which of the following events are equal? (a) A = {1,3}; (b) B = {x | x is a number on a die }; (c) C = {x | x2 −4x +3=0 }; (d) D
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which events are equal, we explicitly define the elements in each set builder.

For event A

A={1.3}

for event B

B={x|x is a number on a die}

The possible numbers on a die are 1,2,3,4,5 and 6. Hence event B is computed as

B={1,2,3,4,5,6}

for event C

C=[x|x^{2}-4x+3]\\solving  x^{2}-4x+3\\x^{2}-4x+3=0\\x^{2}-3x-x+3=0\\x(x-3)-1(x-3)=0\\x=3 or x=1

Hence the set c is C={1,3}

and for the set D {x| x is the number of heads when six coins re tossed }

In the tossing a six coins it is possible not to have any head and it is possible to have head ranging from 1 to 6

Hence the set D can be expressed as

D={0,1,2,3,4,5,6}

In conclusion, when all the set are compared only set A and set C are equal

A spherical scoop of ice cream is placed on top of a hollow ice cream cone. the scoop and cone have the same radius. the ice cre
noname [10]
The figure shown below illustrates the problem.

The volume of the empty cone is
V₁ = (1/3) π r²h

The volume of the sphere is
V₂ = (4/3) π r³

Because the melted ice cream completely fills the cone, therefore
V₁ = V₂
(1/3) π r² h = (4/3) π r³
Divide each side by (1/3) π r².
h = 4r

Answer:
The height of the cone is 4 times greater than the radius f the cone.
