To solve this problem, we have to set up an equation. Let the variable x represent the number of books that Dimitrius had before last week.
x - 5 - 3 + 8 = 12
To begin simplifying this equation, lets combine terms on the left side of the equation.
x - 8 + 8 = 12
The -8 and +8 cancel each other out, leaving us with:
x=12
Therefore, Dimitrius had 12 books before last week.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
C.) Triangle TUV ~ Triangle WXY
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the angles that are equal in each triangle, and put them in the same position in the statement.
T and W are equal; therefore, they are first in each.
U and X are equal; therefore, they are second in each.
V and Y are equal; therfore, they are last in each.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ------(1)
Perimeter = 124cm
Let length be x
Given width is 2cm shorter than length , that width = x -2

Length = 32cm
Width = 32 - 2 = 30cm
Area = length x width

Answer:
x = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
x² + 30² = 50²
x² + 900 = 2500 ( subtract 900 from both sides )
x² = 1600 ( take the square root of both sides )
x =
= 40
