Let us assume the width of the rectangle = x cm
Then
The length of the rectangle = (x + 4) cm
It is already given that
Perimeter of the rectangle = 80 cm
Now we also know the formula for perimeter of a rectangle
Perimeter = 2 ( length + width)
80 = 2 (x + 4 + x)
80 = 2 (2x + 4)
80/2 = 2x + 4
40 = 2x + 4
Dividing both sides by 2 we get
20 = x + 2
20 -2 = x
x = 18
Then
Width of the rectangle = 18 cm
Length of the rectangle = (18 + 4) cm
                                     = 22 cm
So the rectangle has a length of 22 cm and a width of 18 cm.

Solve 3x+2y=4 4x+3y=7 algebraically
Leona [35]
Step 1. Multiply first equation with -3 and the second one with 2. You'll get:
\left \{ {{-9x-6y=-12} \atop {8x+6y=14}} \right.

Step 2. Add both equations together. You'll get:
-x=2, which gives x = -2

Step 3. Replace x = -2 in the first equation and calculate y.
3(-2)+2y=4\\
y=\frac{4+6}{2}=5

The solution is: x=-2, y=5

Simplify<br> x2 + 6 − (3x2 − 2x − 5)
Karolina [17]

Answer:

- 2x² + 2x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² + 6 - (3x² - 2x - 5) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1

= x² + 6 - 3x² + 2x + 5 ← collect like terms

= - 2x² + 2x + 11

If anyone can solve this quickly I will give brainly
Nataly [62]

Answer:

m∠BFE  = 171º

BE = 219º

Step-by-step explanation:

∠BFE is supplementary to ∠EFC

m∠BFE  = 180 - 9

m∠BFE  = 171º

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

The angle between two chords is equal to half the sum of the intercepted arcs:

∠BFE = (DC + BE)2

171 = (123 + BE)/2

342 = 123 + BE

219º = BE

Melissa is 29 meters below the surface. After swimming 12 minutes she rises upward 15 meters. What is her final depth?
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

The final depth of Melissa is 14 meters below the surface

Step-by-step explanation:

In this kind of problems, involving directions, etc, usually one position is the positive direction and the other position is the negative direction.

In our problem, we suppose that the surface is the positivo zero, above the surface is the positive position(positive depth) and below the surface is the negative directions(negative depth).

The problem states that Melissa is 29 meters below the surface. So, her initial position is 29 meters in the negative direction, so it is equal to -29.

Then, the problem states that Melissa rises upward 15 meters. Upward is the positive direction, so she moved to the positive direction. It means that we are going to do -29+15 = -14 meters.

It means that the final depth of Melissa is 14 meters below the surface
