Answer:

5 feet long and 1 foot wide, and vise versa.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we can make pairs.

Then just look at what I do

(6, 0) <= This can't be possible

(5, 1) <= This is the largest

(4, 2) <= This isn't the largest

(3, 3) <= This isn't the largest

(2, 4) <= This isn't the largest

(1, 5) <= This is the largest

(0, 6) <= This can't be possible

The ones labled "This is the largest" are the correct ones

$\Delta KLJ\sim\DeltaNPM$ (AAA) Corresponding angles are congruent.

Therefore, the sides of the triangles are proportional:

$\dfrac{4x-4}{20}=\dfrac{30}{25}$ cross multiply

$25(4x-4)=(20)(30)$ use distributive property

$(25)(4x)+(25)(4)=600\\\\100x+100=600$ subtract 100 from both sides

$100x=500$ divide both sides by 100

$x=5$

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$\Delta PQR\cong\Delta STU$ (SAS)

If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are equal to the corresponding sides and angle of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

Therefore we have the equation:

$3y-2=y+4\qquad|+2\\\\3y=y+6\qquad|-y\\\\2y=6\qquad|:2\\\\y=3$

The perimeter of △PQR:

$P=4+6+3y-2=8+3y$

Substitute the value of y to the expression:

$P=8+3(3)=8+9=17\ ft$

Park two has 12 more benches than Park one. If 2 benches were transferred from Park two to Park one, then Park two would have 2

marta [7]

Answer:

There were 6 benches in park 1 and 18 benches in park 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no of benches in Park 1 and y in park 2.

Given that there are 12 more benches in park 2 than 1

Writing this in equation form, we have y = x+12 ... i

Next is if 2 benches were transferred from park 2 to park 1, then we have

x+2 in park 1 and y-2 in park 2.

Given that y-2 = twice that of x+2

Or y-2 = 2x+4 ... ii

Rewrite by adding 2 to both sides of equation ii.

y = 2x+6 ... iii

i-iii gives 0 = -x+6

Or x =6

Substitute in i, to have y = 6+12 = 18

Verify:

Original benches 6 and 18.

18 = 6+12 hence I condition is satisfied

18-2 = 2(6+2)

II is also satisfied.
