Answer:
Length of the garden = 10 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a garden = 2(length + width)
Perimeter of the garden = 32 ft
Width of the garden = 6 ft
Length of the garden = x ft
Perimeter of a garden = 2(length + width)
32 = 2 ( x + 6 )
Open parenthesis
32 = 2x + 12
Subtract 12 from both sides
32 - 12 = 2x + 12 - 12
20 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2
20 / 2 = 2x / 2
10 = x
x = 10 ft
Therefore, length of the garden = x = 10 ft
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
AC = BD (as the diagonal of the rectangle)
4x-60=30-x
4x+x = 30+60
5x = 90
x = 90/5
x = 18
=> BD = 30-18 = 12
One minute later at 8:01pm. One lighthouse will flash 3 times (at 20, 40 and 60 seconds)...the other will flash twice (at 30 and 60 seconds). So they will both flash 60 seconds later, at 8:01
Division and subtraction because the quotient is the result of a division and 'less than is a subtraction.
5x + 4y = 32 ⇒ 45x + 36y = 288
9x - 1y = 33 ⇒ <u>45x - 5y = 165</u>
<u>41y</u> = <u>123</u>
41 41
y = 3
5x + 4(3) = 32
5x + 12 = 32
<u> - 12 - 12</u>
<u>5x</u> = <u>20</u>
5 5
x = 4
(x, y) = (4, 3)
