We have that
If you draw a diagram, and draw perpendiculars from the intersection to the sides of the rectangle, you will see they are the mid point of each side. 

see the attached figure

<span>If the mid point of the smaller side is ---------> x.
The mid point of the larger side will be -----------> (x + 4) </span>
The full length if the smaller side will be 2x and the length of the larger side will be 2(x + 4) = 2x + 8 

The perimeter = 2 times the length + 2 times the width. 
2(2x + 8) + 4x = 56 
4x + 16 + 4x = 56 
8x = 40 
x = 5 
Therefore 
length = 2x + 8 = 18cm 
<span>width = 2x = 10cm
</span>
the answer is
<span>the lengths of the sides of the rectangle are
</span>length = 18cm 
width = 10cm

Solve the following inequality algebraically. ∣x−5∣≤11
Igoryamba

Answer:

-6\leq x\leq 16

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the inequality:

|x-5|\leq 11

Definition of Absolute Value:

x-5\leq 11\text{ or } x-5\geq -11

Note that the sign is flipped in the second case because we multiplied by a negative.

Add 5 to both sides to both equations:

x\leq 16\text{ or } x\geq -6

Merge:

-6\leq x\leq 16

And we're done!

A rectangular greenhouse has an area of 6480 square meters and a length of 120 meters. How many meters is it in width?
bonufazy [111]
Area is length x width. If the area is 6480, and you know the length, plug it into the formula to find the width.


120 x width = 6480

So, to solve, you would divide 6480 by 120 to find the width. 6480/120 = 54.

Therefore, the width is 54.
