Perimeter= 2w+2l
l=w+5

Substitute for l
p= 2w+2(w+5)
p= 2w+2w+10
p= 4w+10
58=4w+10
48=4w
12= w

Plug in the width to find length.
l= 12+5
l=17

Final answer: Length-17 cm, Width-12 cm

Write two equations:
l + w = 58
l + 5 = w
substitute and solve
l + l + 5 = 58
2l = 53
l=26.5
w=31.5
26.5cm x 31.5cm

Keep, change, flip

Example: 3/4 divided by 6/8

Step 1: keep 3/4

Step two: change the division sign to a multiplication sign

Step 3: flip 6/8 and make it 8/6

Step 4: multiply it, then that’s your answer to the division problem

Solve the equation for all values of x by completing the square.<br> x^2 + 4x = 32
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

x^2+4x-32=0

(mid-term breaking---4 x 8=32)

x^2+8x-4x-32=0

x(x+8)-4(x+8)

x+8=0 or x-4=0

So x=+4 or x=-8

Find each quotient. Write in simplest form. keep answer as fraction - not decimal
kirill [66]

So we are given the expression:

\frac{mn^{2}}{4} ÷ \frac{m^{2}n}{8}

When we divide fractions, we must flip the second term and change the sign to multiplication:

\frac{mn^{2}}{4} *\frac{8}{m^{2}n}

And then we multiply across:

\frac{mn^{2}}{4} *\frac{8}{m^{2}n}= \frac{8mn^{2}}{4m^{2}n}

Then we can break apart all of the like variables for simplification:

\frac{8mn^{2}}{4m^{2}n}=\frac{8}{4} * \frac{m}{m^{2}} *\frac{n^{2}}{n}

When we simplify variables through division, we subtract the exponent of the numerator from the exponent of the denominator. So we then have:

\frac{8}{4} =2

\frac{m}{m^{2}}=m^{-1} =\frac{1}{m}

\frac{n^{2}}{n}=n^{1}=\frac{n}{1}

So then we multiply all of these simplified parts together:

\frac{2}{1}*\frac{1}{m}*\frac{n}{1}   =\frac{2n}{m}

So now we know that the simplified form of the initial expression is: \frac{2n}{m}.
