5x+17=-23
Subtract 17 on both sides
5x=-40
Divide by 5 on both sides
X=-8
Double Check:
5(-8)+17=-23
-40+17=-23
-23=-23

if a rectangle has an area of 30 square meters and a perimeter of 34 meters . what is the dimensions of the rectangle?
timama [110]
P=2(L+W)  and P=34 so

2(L+W)=34

L+W=17 so we can say

L=17-W

A=LW using L from above

A=(17-W)W

A=17W-W^2 and A=30 so

30=17W-W^2

W^2-17W+30=0

W^2-2W-15W+30=0

W(W-2)-15(W-2)=0

(W-15)(W-2)=0

So the dimensions of the rectangle are 15 meters by 2 meters.

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

$0.90

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving for the price of one watermelon (a unit of watermelon).

What is given to you is the price of 4 watermelons, or $3.60. To solve, simply divide $3.60 with 4:

3.60/4 = 0.90

$0.90 is your answer.

Remember to add the hundredth place value (0), as money goes to the hundredth place value.
