Line TU is 2 times OL, so 2(2x-14) = x+2.
4x-28 = x + 2
4x=x+30
3x=30
x=10
Answer:
The perimeter is the distance all the way around the outside of a 2D shape. To calculate the perimeter, sum the lengths of all the sides.
Therefore, perimeter of the triangle = (2x - 8) + (2x + 5) + (30 - 3x)
Collect like terms: 2x + 2x - 3x - 8 + 5 + 30
Combine like terms: x + 27
Therefore, perimeter of triangle = x + 27
We are told that the perimeter is 25:
x + 27 = 25
Subtract 27 from both sides: x = -2
If x = -2, then the side with equation 2x - 8 = (2 x -2) - 8 = -12
A length cannot be negative, therefore the perimeter cannot equal 25.
There will be 17 quarters in the bag (12 which are state and 5 which are regular). The probability of the state quarters picked on the first try would be 12/17 while the probability of the second will be 5/17. If Rees put the state quarter back in the jar, then probability that the second quarter will be a regular quarter will remain 5/17.
area of square = 4ft²
a s area of square = length×lenght
let lenght =x
so area = x²
x²= 4ft²
taking square root
x=2 ftSo lebght of each side is 2 ft.
There are two ways to find the total with tax
Either you can do
cost + cost x tax rate
or
cost x (1+tax rate)
Since the second one requires less steps, it's easier to do that.

The cost with tax is
$17.27
