Size square × 4 = size triangle × 3
(2X × 4 ) = [(2X +1/3) × 3]

8X = [(6X+1)/3×3]
8X = 6X+1
8X -6X = 1
2X = 1
X= 1/2

Answer : The value of 'x' is \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation :

As we know that,

The perimeter of square = 4a

The perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3s

('a' is the side square and 's' is the side of equilateral triangle)

Given:

Side of square = a = 2x

Side of equilateral triangle = s = (2x+1/3)

As per question, the square and the triangle have the same perimeter. That means,

Perimeter of square = Perimeter of equilateral triangle

4a = 3s

Now put the value of 'a' and 's', we get the value of 'x'.

4\times (2x)=3\times (2x+\frac{1}{3})

8x=6x+1

8x-6x=1

2x=1

x=\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, the value of 'x' is \frac{1}{2}

3.27x+1.28y+1.83x−2.77y
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

5.1x - 1.49y

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to add or substract like terms.

like terms are the terms that have the same variable, in this case:

3.27x and 1.83x are like terms, and adding them we get:

3.27x + 1.83x = 5.1x (you add only the coefficients and the x stays the same)

we do the same for the terms with 'y':

1.28y and −2.77y are like terms, but in this case we must substract because of the − sign:

1.28y −2.77y = -1.49y

the final answer is the conjunction of the two results that we obtained:

5.1x - 1.49y

Simplify the following expressions using Order of Operations.<br><br> 4+ 8 = 2 + 6 x 2
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

12 ≠ 14

Step-by-step explanation:

(4+8)=2+(6x2)

12 = 2 + 12

12 ≠ 14.

So the equation is false.
