Answer:

13 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Define x :

--------------------------------------------

Let the width be x.

Width = x

Length = 2x - 3

--------------------------------------------

Perimeter Formula :

--------------------------------------------

Perimeter = 2 (Length + Width)

 --------------------------------------------

FInd Width :

--------------------------------------------

42 = 2 (x + 2x - 3) 

42 = 2(3x - 3)

42 = 6x - 6

48 = 6x 

6x = 48

x = 8 feet

--------------------------------------------

Find Length :

--------------------------------------------

Length = 2x - 3 = 2(8) - 3 = 13 feet

--------------------------------------------

Answer: The length is 13 feet.

100 POINTS!!!!
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

O is the center of the circle with radius IE(=ID=EF)

Step-by-step explanation:

Join all 3 points D, E, F, forming the triangle DEF.

Let the midpoint of EF be M and the midpoint of ED be N. (first picture)

Join point I to E, D and F.

Since IN is both an altitude and median to triangle EID, then triangle EID is an isosceles triangle, and IE=ID

similarly, we see that IE=IF.

conclusion: IE=ID=EF.

-8 -8x + 10 + 6x = 19
hram777 [196]

Answer:

x = -8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's rearrange the question to find x :)

-8x + 6x + 10 - 8 = 19

-2x + 2 = 19

-2             -2

-2x = 17

/-2      /-2

x = -8.5

A marble is selected at random from a jar containing 3 red​ marbles, 4 yellow​ marbles, and 6 green marbles. What is the probabi
alexgriva [62]

Answer:  a) \dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of red marbles = 3

Number of yellow marbles = 4

Number of green marbles = 6

Total number of marbles = 3 +4 +6 = 13

​a) the marble is​ red? ​

Probability of getting a red marble = \dfrac{3}{13}

b) the marble is not​ yellow?

Probability of not getting yellow = \dfrac{3+6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}

​c) the marble is either red or ​green?

Probability of getting either red or green = P(red) + P(green) =\dfrac{3}{13}+\dfrac{6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}

d) the marble is neither red nor ​green?

Probability of getting neither red nor green = P(getting yellow) = \dfrac{4}{13}

Hence, a) \dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}
