Answer:
QR = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
PR = PQ + QR
PR = x + 19
PQ = 9
So now put what you know in the equation above.
PR = 9 + 2x + 19
PR also equals x + 19
so
x + 19 = 9 + 2x + 19
x + 19 = 2x + 28
19 - 28 + x = 2x
-9 + x = 2x
-9 = 2x - x
-9 = x
===================
QR = 2x + 19
QR = 2*-9 + 19
QR = -18 + 19
QR = 1
This really is kind of a nasty question. You don't expect to get a minus number of x.
Answer:
56 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter is the distance around the shape
18 x 2 + 10 x 2 =
36 + 20 =
56 ft
I saw the image that should have been posted with this word problem.
The rolls of wrapping paper is cylindrical in shape.
Roll A : length = 30 inches ; diameter = 3 inches
Roll B : length = 24 inches ; diameter = unknown
Lateral surface area = 2 π r h
Lateral Surface area of Roll A = Lateral Surface area of Roll B
2 * 3.14 * 1.5in * 30in = 2 * 3.14 * r * 24 in
282.60 in² = 150.72 in * r
282.60 in² / 150.72 in = r
1.875 in = r
diameter is 2 times the radius = 1.875 in * 2 = 3.75 inches
The diameter of Roll B is 3.75 inches.
