The difference between one-fifth of a number and 4 is -75

1 answer:

7 0

Think of this as (1/5)x - 4 = -75, where x is the number that we are trying to figure out. To figure this out, we want to get x by itself, so we can go:

(1/5)x=-71
x=-71*5
x=-355

So your number is -355

The triangle perimeter would be:

(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+3)

And the rectangle:

(x+2)+(x+2)+x+x

For them to have the same value, we should equal them:

(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+3)=(x+2)+(x+2)+x+x
