Answer:

correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the sides.

Rectangle ( opposite sides are congruent ), thus

perimeter = 2x + 2(x + 18) = 2x + 2x + 36 = 4x + 36

Square ( sides are congruent ), thus

perimeter = 4(x + 9) = 4x + 36

The perimeters are the same, so the student is correct

How to solve 3x^2+22x=-35 by factoring

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

x = -7/3 or -5

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 + 22x = -35

3x^2 + 22x + 35 = 0

(3x + 7) (x + 5) = 0

so for 3x+7:

3x+7 = 0

3x = -7

x = -7/3

So for x + 5:

x + 5 = 0

x = -5

What is the area of an equilateral triangle that has a perimeter of 36 centimeters? Round to the nearest square centimeter.

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

(a is size of side of triangle)

the perimeter of equilateral triangle =3a

or, 36=3a

Thus, a = 13cm

area of equilateral triangle

=√3/4*(a^2 )

=√3/4*(13^2)

=73cm^2
