Hello.

The answer is: 24

length=3*width, this can be written as 3w

area=27 sq cm

Formula for the area of a rectangle=27 (area)= 3w (length) * w (width)

27=3w^2

then divide both sides by 3: 9=w^2

take the square root of both sides to get: w=3

Now that we know what the width is, we can substitute that and find the length: 3w= 3*3=24

have a nice day

Z would also be 63 degrees. Triangle WXZ is isosceles, as sides WX and WZ are marked as congruent. This means that the two base angles of the triangle (the bottom two) are congruent. You already know that one of the base angles, X (or WXY), is 63 degrees, so using this reasoning, the other base angle, YZW, is 63 degrees as well. I hope this helps!

Answer:

D(4 units right, 2 up)

Step-by-step explanation:

You must pick a point which does not have an apostrophe. Then you see how which direction is goes (e.g left or right) and then you see the height (up and down) and combining all this the answer would be 4 units right, 2 up

What is the solution to this equation 5x -8(x + 5)= 6-3x
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

5x - 8(x + 5) = 6 - 3x

Remember to follow PEMDAS. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

First, distribute -8 to all terms within the parenthesis

-8(x + 5) = (-8)(x) + (-8)(5) = -8x - 40

5x - 8x - 40 = 6 - 3x

Isolate the variable (x). Add 3x & 40 to both sides

5x - 8x (+3x) - 40 (+40) = 6 (+40) - 3x (+3x)

5x - 8x + 3x = 6 + 40

Simplify. Combine like terms

(5x - 8x + 3x) = (6 + 40)

0 = 46 ; False 0 ≠ 46 ∴ no solution is your answer
