The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2L + 2W, where L is the length and W is the width. Because we don't know either the length or the width we can't solve the problem...too many unknowns.  BUT we do have some information that will help with this problem.  We are told that the length is 2 feet longer than the width, so we can use that: L = W+2.  Now we can make the substitution into the formula along with the value for the perimeter that was given to us: 36=2(W+2) + 2W, and 36 = 2W + 4 + 2W; 36 = 4W + 4; 32 = 4W and W = 8.  Now go back to where you said that the length is 2 feet longer than the width.  If the width is 8, then 8+2 = 10 for the length.

Arrange the systems of equations that have a single solution in Increasing order of the x-values in their solutions.
NemiM [27]

Complete question is;

Arrange the systems of equations that have a single solution in Increasing order of the x-values in their solutions.

1) 2x + y = 10

x - 3y = -2

2) x + 2y = 5

2x + y = 4

3) x + 3y = 5

6x - y = 11

4) 2x + y = 10

-6x - 3y = -2

Answer:

Arranging the systems in increasing value of x gives;

System 2, system 3, system 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) 2x + y = 10 - - - (eq 1)

x - 3y = -2 - - - (eq 2)

Multiply eq 1 by 3 to get;

6x + 3y = 30

Add it to eq 2 to get;

7x = 28

x = 28/7

x = 4

2) x + 2y = 5 - - - (eq 1)

2x + y = 4 - - - (eq 2)

Multiply eq 2 by 2 to get;

4x + 2y = 8

Subtract eq 1 from it to get;

3x = 3

x = 3/3

x = 1

3) x + 3y = 5 - - - (eq 1)

6x - y = 11 - - - (eq 2)

Multiply eq 2 by 3 to get;

18x - 3y = 33

Add to eq(1) to get;

19x = 38

x = 38/19

x = 2

4) 2x + y = 10 - - - (eq 1)

-6x - 3y = -2 - - - (eq 2)

Make y the subject in eq 1 to get;

y = 10 - 2x

Put in eq (2);

-6x - 3(10 - 2x) = -2

-6x - 30 + 6x = -2

0 = 0

Thus,no solution exists.

Arranging the systems in increasing value of x gives;

System 2, system 3, system 1

What does X equal? geometry
Otrada [13]

Answer:

x= 77

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at 122 degrees is a linear pair with the isosceles triangle, meaning it makes 180 degrees.

180-122= 58 degrees

Since it is an isosceles triangle, the two angles at the bottom are both 58 degrees.

Let's use this info to find the degree at the top.

58+58= 116

There are 180 degrees in a triangle, so subtract 116 degrees we have so far to find the last angle.

180-116= 64 degrees

And since the angle at the top makes 90 degrees, we can subtract 64 degrees to find the smaller angle to the right of the 64 degree angle.

90-64= 26 degrees

And since a triangle has a total of 180 degrees, subtract the 26 degrees from 180.

180-26= 154 degrees.

And since it is an isosceles triangle, divide the remaining 154 degrees by 2 because they are both equal.

154/2= 77 degrees.

Your answer is 77 degrees.
