2³ + 3² = 2*2*2+3*3= 8+9=17
a=2,
b=3,
P= 17,
2,3,17 are all prime numbers
16 it is as easy as multiplying
If x represents the mass of 1 ball in kg, then the balance shows ...
... 6x = x + 9 kg
... 5x = 9 kg
Then 6x is ...
... (6/5)·5x = (6/5)·9 kg = 10.8 kg
0.8 kg = 0.8·1000 g = 800 g
so 10.8 kg is ...
... D. 10 kg 800 g
Let's call the width: w
the lenght is then 3w+4 ("4 more than 3 times the width")
and the parameter would be 2(w+3w+4), that is 2*(4w+4), that is 8w+8.
this is also equal to 18.4:
8w+8=18.4
8w=10.4
w=1.3
this is the width, and the lenght is:
4+3*1,3=4+3.9=7.9
and the area is their product:
1.3*7.9=10.27
