2(x-3)+2(4)=40
2x-6+8=40
2x+2=40
2x=38
x=19
Length=(x-3)=(19-3)=16 cm

We actually don't need to solve for x, just legnth

P=2(L+W)
40=P
L=x-3=L (since we are solving for Legnth not specifically x)
W=4

40=2(L+4)
divide both sides by 2
20=L+4
minus 4 both sides
16=L

legnth=16 cm (x=19 just fyi)

Answer:

6.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar means the same shape but smaller. So we have to find the connection between 17 and 5. Which can be achieved by this equation

17/5=3.4

Now we apply the number 3.4 to find the length of PQ using the same side on the similar shape

2*3.4=6.8

Hope this helps and I’m sorry to ask but I would love a Brainliest

Find the slope of a line perpendicular to <br><br> Y= -x -1
ad-work [718]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

The slope is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must find the slope of the current equation.

This is the number in front of the x.

Seeing as this is -x, or -1x, the slope of this line is -1

When finding the slope of a line perpendicular, you need to find the \frac{-1}{slope}

So, in this case it is:

\frac{-1}{-1}

The minuses cancel out, leaving with 1 over 1 or 1/

So the slope of the line perpendicular is 1!


<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
