imeter of the rectangle is 2(5x – 2) + 2(3x + 1). If x = 4 centimeters, what is the total distance Zohar needs to cut with the scissors?

Answer:

62 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expressions for width (3x + 1) and length (5x - 2) as well as the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle: 2(5x - 2) + 2(3x +10), we can first solve for the simplified expression of 'x' and then substitute the given value of x = 4cm to find the total distance:

Distribute: 2(5x - 2) + 2(3x +1) = 10x - 4 + 6x + 2

Combine like terms:  16x - 2

Plug in '4' for 'x':  16(4) - 2 = 64 -2  = 62 cm

Quadrilateral ABCD is similiar to quadrilateral EFGH. The lengths of the three longest sides in quadrilateral ABCD are 20 feet,
Harman [31]

First, let's list the lengths of the sides in descending order.

Lengths of sides of quadrilateral ABCD: 20, 18, 14, a

Lengths of sides of quadrilateral EFGH: b, c, 6, 5

From the listings above, we see that he sides measuring 14 and 6 are corresponding.

We are looking for c which corresponds to 18.

14 is to 6 is as 18 is to c

14/6 = 18/c

7/3 = 18/c

7c = 3 * 18

7c = 54

c = 54/7 = 7 5/7

Answer: 7 5/7 feet

Paulie ordered 250 pens and 250 pencils to sell for a theatre club fundraiser. The pens cost 11 cents more than the pencils. If
Korolek [52]
Remember that cents has a decimal when put in an equation.
250(x + 11) + 250x = 4250
250x + 2750 + 250x = 4250
500x + 2750 = 4250
500x = 1500
x = 3 cents (pencils)
x+11 = 14 cents (pens)
