If a rectangle is twice as long as it is wide and has a perimeter of 42 meters, what is the area of the rectangle?
| 98 m2 | |
| 2 m2 | |
| 8 m2 | |
| 18 m2 |
The area of a rectangle is width (w) x height (h). In this problem we know that the rectangle is twice as long as it is wide so h = 2w. The perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2h and we know that the perimeter of this rectangle is 42 meters so the equation becomes: 2w + 2h = 42.
Putting these two equations together and solving for width (w):
2w + 2h = 42
w + h = \( \frac{42}{2} \)
w + h = 21
w = 21 - h
From the question we know that h = 2w so substituting 2w for h gives us:
w = 21 - 2w
3w = 21
w = \( \frac{21}{3} \)
w = 7
Since h = 2w that makes h = (2 x 7) = 14 and the area = h x w = 7 x 14 = 98 m2
What is \( 9 \)\( \sqrt{12} \) + \( 3 \)\( \sqrt{3} \)
| 21\( \sqrt{3} \) | |
| 27\( \sqrt{4} \) | |
| 27\( \sqrt{12} \) | |
| 27\( \sqrt{3} \) |
To add these radicals together their radicands must be the same:
9\( \sqrt{12} \) + 3\( \sqrt{3} \)
9\( \sqrt{4 \times 3} \) + 3\( \sqrt{3} \)
9\( \sqrt{2^2 \times 3} \) + 3\( \sqrt{3} \)
(9)(2)\( \sqrt{3} \) + 3\( \sqrt{3} \)
18\( \sqrt{3} \) + 3\( \sqrt{3} \)
Now that the radicands are identical, you can add them together:
18\( \sqrt{3} \) + 3\( \sqrt{3} \)Solve 4 + (3 + 3) ÷ 3 x 2 - 22
| 4 | |
| 1\(\frac{2}{7}\) | |
| \(\frac{4}{9}\) | |
| 1\(\frac{1}{3}\) |
Use PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multipy/Divide, Add/Subtract):
4 + (3 + 3) ÷ 3 x 2 - 22
P: 4 + (6) ÷ 3 x 2 - 22
E: 4 + 6 ÷ 3 x 2 - 4
MD: 4 + \( \frac{6}{3} \) x 2 - 4
MD: 4 + \( \frac{12}{3} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{12}{3} \) + \( \frac{12}{3} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{24}{3} \) - 4
AS: \( \frac{24 - 12}{3} \)
\( \frac{12}{3} \)

Simplify \( \frac{24}{68} \).
| \( \frac{1}{3} \) | |
| \( \frac{6}{17} \) | |
| \( \frac{7}{19} \) | |
| \( \frac{5}{19} \) |
To simplify this fraction, first find the greatest common factor between them. The factors of 24 are [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24] and the factors of 68 are [1, 2, 4, 17, 34, 68]. They share 3 factors [1, 2, 4] making 4 their greatest common factor (GCF).
Next, divide both numerator and denominator by the GCF:
\( \frac{24}{68} \) = \( \frac{\frac{24}{4}}{\frac{68}{4}} \) = \( \frac{6}{17} \)
Solve for \( \frac{3!}{2!} \)

A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:
\( \frac{3!}{2!} \)
\( \frac{3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{3}{1} \)
