The perimeter of a rectangle is 42feet. The length decreased by 3times the width is 1foot . What are the dimensions of the rectangle? (what is the length and width)

Length is 16 ft. Width is 5 feet.

Step-by-step explanation: Take the information given and write an equation. "Length decreased by 3 is 1" becomes L - 3w = 1 .

"Solve" for L. L= 3w +1

Write another equation for the formula of a perimeter. P=2L + 2w.

Substitute the values for L (from the first "solution" you wrote) and P (42 ft, given).

42 = 2(3w +1) + 2w. Solve this.

42= 6w +2 + 2w

42= 8w +2. Subtract 2 from both sides then divide both sides by 8.

W = 5

Substitute that into the first equation you wrote to get the Length.

L - 3(5) = 1

L -15 = 1. L = 1+15

L = 16

the length of o'p' is .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

the scale factor is 1.5.

multiply both sides by op.

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is .

14.3

step-by-step explanation:

add all the numbers together.

9 + 12 + 15 + 16 + 17 + 17 = 86

now, divide 86 by how many numbers we have: 6.

86 / 6 = 14.3
