Answer:

The perimeter of both figures is equal to 64\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

we know that

The perimeter of a square is equal to

P=4b

where

b is the side length of the square

we have

b=8x\ units

substitute

P=4(8x)=32x\ units

step 2

we know that

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to

P=2(L+W)

we have

L=(5x+8)\ units

W=(14)\ units

substitute

P=2(5x+8+14)=10x+44\ units

step 3

Equate both perimeters and solve for x

10x+44=32x

32x-10x=44

22x=44

x=2\ units

step 4

Find the perimeter of both

<em>square</em>

P=32x=32(2)=64\ units

<em>rectangle</em>

P=10x+44=10(2)+44=64\ units

Solve for x<br> Urgent need help
fiasKO [112]
I believe you need to solve this using the quadratic formula!
To begin, this is what it is:
x= -b ± <span>√ b^2 - 4ac / 2a
Just plug in what you have in your problem...
2 being a, 13 being b, and -24 being c.
So we get:
x= -13 </span>± <span>√13^2 - 4(2)(-24) / 2(2)
x= -13 </span><span>± √169 - 8 (-24) / 4</span>
<span>x= -13 <span>± √169 + 192 / 4</span>
x= -13 </span>± √<span>361 / 4
The square root of 361 is 19.
So you have: -13 </span><span>± 19 / 4.
Here's where you take the equation </span>-13 <span>± 19 and put the addition and subtraction sign to use.
-13 - 19 = -32
and
-13 + 19 = 6
Now all is left to do is divide the two numbers by 4.
-32/4 = -8
and
6/4 = 3/2

x = -8, 3/2</span>

What is the reason for statement 2 of the two-column proof?<br> Given: Prove: m Helpppppp!!!!!!
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

We have been given that PQ bisects . In the second statement of the given two-column proof, the statement is .

This implies that the two angles formed by bisection of angle  by the line PQ are equal. We know that the reason for this is simple. It is the definition of bisection of an angle that the two smaller angles formed will be equal to each other.

Therefore, the reason for statement 2 of the given two column proof is c) Definition of bisect

How many more games will it take until tom and will have scored the same number of points
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

<em>Both players will need to play 7 more games to have the same score.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Will makes 18 points per game and Tom makes 21 points per game. Will has a total of 483 points and Tom has 462 points.

We have to calculate the number of games Tom and Will need to play for them to have the same number of points. Since Tom makes more points per game, we're sure it will eventually happen.

Let's call x to the number of games that both players will play. Will will have a number of points equal to:

W = 483 + 18x

And Tom will have:

T = 462 + 21x

For both number of games to be equal, the equation to solve is:

483 + 18x= 462 + 21x

Move 18x to the right side and 462 to the left side:

483 - 462 = 21x - 18x

Operating:

21 = 3x

x = 21 / 3 = 7

Thus, both players will need to play 7 more games to have the same score.

Cara and John collect baseball cards.Cara has 12 times as many baseball cards as John.Together they have 117 cards.How many card
MrRa [10]

Answer:

John has 9 baseball cards.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start off, we want to find the highest product of 12 without going over 117. Lets try out some problems...

What about 12x10? Well that equals 120 and since it goes over 117 that won't work.

What about 12x9? That equals 108. This is below 117. Since we know that Cara has 12 times more baseball cards than John has, we simply add 9 to 108 and it gives us 117 total baseball cards.

This means, John has 9 baseball cards.

frez [133]
As the spinner is spun twice the order pairs which have a product less than 14 and contain at least one odd number are ( 2,3), ( 2,5), ( 3,2), ( 3,3), ( 5,2) 
= 5 order pairs
Option B is correct
