Answer:

<h2>length = 14 cm</h2><h2>width = 3 cm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w

where

l is the length

w is the width

From the question

Perimeter = 34 cm

The statement

The length of a rectangle is 8 cm longer than twice the width is written as

l = 8 + 2w

Substitute this expression into the above formula and solve for the width

That's

34 = 2( 8 + 2w) + 2w

34 = 16 + 4w + 2w

6w = 18

Divide both sides by 6

w = 3

Substitute this value into l = 8 + 2w

That's

l = 8 + 2(3)

= 8 + 6

l = 14

The dimensions are

length = 14 cm

width = 3 cm

Hope this helps you

A triangle has angles that measure 8xº,
romanna [79]

Answer:

8xº = 90º

6xº = 67.5º

2xº = 22.5º

x = 11.25°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°

8xº + 6xº + 2xº = 180º

16xº = 180º

x = 11.25º

8xº = 11.25(8) = 90º

6xº = 67.5º

2xº = 22.5º

Hope this helps :)

This depends on the situation. For context, you use less than when your inequality CANNOT exceed more than.

You would use less than or equal to if your inequality can be equal to a number. Here's an example.

x + y (equal to or less than) 45

John needs to buy X oranges and Y apples. He CANNOT buy more than 10 total fruits.
