2(2x + 9) + 2(x) = 36
4x + 18 + 2x = 36
Combine like terms.
6x + 18 = 36
Subtract 18 from both sides.
6x = 18
Divide 6 on both sides.
x = 3
Hope this helps!
The shorter side is 40 in and the longer side is 64 in
Answer:
y = -56
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for direct variation is
y = kx where k is the constant of variation
y = -8 x
We know x =7
y = -8*7
y = -56
<em>BD</em> = 56
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: In rectangle, the diagonals are congruent and bisect each other.
So, <em>AC</em> = <em>BD</em>
⇒<em>AG</em> + <em>GC</em> = <em>BG</em> + <em>GD</em>
⇒<em>AG</em> + <em>AG</em> = <em>GD</em> + <em>GD</em>
⇒ 2<em>AG</em> = 2<em>GD</em>
⇒<em>AG</em> = <em>GD</em>
⇒ –7<em>j </em>+ 7 = 5<em>j</em> + 43
⇒–7<em>j</em> – 5<em>j</em> = 43 – 7
⇒–12<em>j</em> = 36
⇒<em>j</em> = –3
Step 2: <em>BD</em> = 2<em>DG</em>
<em>BD</em> = 2(5<em>j</em> + 43)
= 2(5 (–3) + 43)
= 2(–15 + 43)
= 2 × 28
= 56
Hence, <em>BD</em> = 56.
