Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for 2x+14=8

Subtract 14 on both sides: 2x= 8-14

2x = -6

Divide by 2: x = -3

-3 = -3

<em>Hope this helps!!</em>

Answer:

They are equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+14 = 8

Lets solve for x

Subtract 14 from each side

2x+14-14 = 8-14

2x = -6

Divide by 2

2x/2 = -6/2

x = -3

They are the same

The perimeter of a rectangle is 54cm. The area of the same rectangle is 176 cm^2. What are the dimensions of the rectangle?
densk [106]

Given is rectangle with perimeter = 54 centimeters and area = 176 squared centimeters.

Let's consider the length of rectangle = L and width of rectangle = W.

We know the following formulas for rectangle :-

Perimeter = 2 x (L + W)

Area = L x W

So we have 2 x (L + W) = 54 and L x W = 176.

L + W = 27 and L x W = 176

We need to find two positive integers such that their sum is 27 and product is 176.

Using trial and error, we have two such positive integers such that 11 + 16 = 27 and 11 x 16 = 176.

So, the dimensions of rectangle would be 11cm x 16cm.

Hence, option A is correct i.e. 11 cm by 16 cm.

Raymond was riding a zip-cable from the top of a viewing post. The cable is 65 yards long. The viewing post is 52 yards high and
grin007 [14]
In order to figure out the horizontal distance Raymond travels using his zip cable, we may simply apply Pythagoras theorem which is, for a right triangle:
hypotenuse² = base² + height²
base = √(hypotenuse² - height²)
base = √(65² - 52²)
base =  39 yards
Raymond will travel a horizontal distance of 39 yards.
