Hi there!
We can find the perimeter of a rectangle by using the following formula:
perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length
In the question, we are given the following data: the length of the rectangle is 12 in and the perimeter is 56. Let's substitute this into our formula!
56 = 2 × width + 2 × 12
Multiply first.
56 = 2 × width + 24
Now subtract 24 from both sides.
32 = 2 × width
And finally, to find the width of the rectangle, divide both sides of the equation by 2.
16 = width
(we can eventually switch sides in the equation).
width = 16
~ Hope this helps you!
6x+3y=33..........(1)
4x+y=15
y=15-4x.........(2)
substitute value of y from (2) in (1)
6x+3(15-4x)=33
distribute 3 over the bracket
6x+45-12x =33
-6x=33-45
-6x=-12
x=2
plugging this value of x in equation 2 we get
15-4x=y
15-4(2)=y
y=15-8
y=7
Answer is x=2 and y=7
Answer:
<h2>
46</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
x - age of a son three years ago
3x - age of a father three years ago
x + 3 - age of the son now
3x + 3 - age of the father now
x + 3 + 5 - age of the son in five years time
3x + 3 + 5 - age of the father in five years time
in five years time, the father will be twice as old as his son, so:
3x + 3 + 5 = 2(x + 3 + 5)
3x + 8 = 2x + 16
3x - 2x = 16 - 8
x = 8
x + 3 + 4 - age of the son in four years time
8 + 3 + 4 = 15
3x + 3 + 4 - age of the father in four years time
3×8 + 3 + 4 = 31
the sum of their ages in four years time:
15 + 31 = 46
