Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
y-7=4(x-2)
we need to simplify the y to het a
y-7=4x-8 (i did 4x-8 because of 4(x-2)
now y= 4x-8+(-7)
after calculating -8+(-7) IT becomes
y=4x-15
okay we have the guide Line
y=4x-15
the a is 4
because
a = {y=a.x+b}
now we need to find the points using this guide Line
y=4x-15
x= 2(you can add any number here ,we Just need to know where the point is )
y= 4(2)-15
y=8-15
y= -7
points are (2,7)
<h2><u>The value of x is equal to 6.</u></h2>
2 + 3x = 20
Subtract 2 from both sides.
3x = 18
Divide both sides by 3.
x = 6
