Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: 3
Discussion:
The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the side lengths.
Perimeter of top polygon is (x+2) + 2x + (x + 2) + (4x + 1) = 8x + 5
Perimeter of bottom triangle is 4x + 2x + (3x+2 ) = 9x + 2
The perimeters are the same when
8x + 5 = 9x + 2
Subtract 8x from both sides:
5 = (9x - 8x) + 2 or
5 = x + 2
Subtract 2 from each side to get x = 3:
5 -2 = 3 = x
The perimeter of either figure is 29

Answer:
A maximum of 43 students and 11 teachers can go to the trip.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since a group of teachers and students will take a bus trip to a museum, and each teacher will lead a group of no more than 4 students, and the bus can hold a maximum of 54 teachers and students, to determine the possible numbers of teachers and students who can go on the trip, the following calculation must be performed:
4 + 1 = 5
54/5 = X
10.8 = X
10 x 4 = 40
10 x 1 = 10
4 - 1 = 3
Therefore, a maximum of 43 students and 11 teachers can go to the trip.
Answer:
So both equations are true
Step-by-step explanation:
#4 was asking you to substitute x = 4 into both equations to see if it's the solution of the equations.
Substitute x = 4
Ritz equation
y = 30x + 20
y = 30(4) + 20
y = 120 + 20
y = 140
Smits equation:
y = 15x + 80
y = 15(4) + 80
y = 60 + 80
y = 140
Both companies charged same price $140 for 4 days
So both equations are true
