Perimeter is the addition of all the sides
x-2+x+3x+1=2x-5+x+4+6x-7; since their perimeters are equal
5x-1=9x-8
collect the like terms
-1+8=9x-5x
7=4x
x=7/4
x=1.75

Bean plants grow rapidly. A bean plant is 16 inches tall. Tomorrow it will be 24 inches tall, the next day it will be 32 inches
vodka [1.7K]
Every day, it increases by 8 inches. We know that it started at 16 inches.

We can construct an equation with this information.

Equation: 16+8x=h
h=Height
x=Days

Plug in 12 for x:
16+96=h
h=112 inches

Answer: The plant will be 112 inches tall in 12 days.

Find upper and lower limit of a weight of a cotton reel which is 1.56g nearst to mg
Papessa [141]

Answer: the lower limit is 1.555g and the upper limit is 1.564g

Step-by-step explanation:

a mg is:

1mg = 0.001g

Then we need to look at the third digit after the decimal point.

Then the weight 1.56g is rounded around this.

Remember that if the third digit after the decimal point is 5 or bigger, then we round up.

if the third digit is smaller than 5, then we round down.

Now, the maximum possible value of this weight is when the third digit is equal to 4 (4 mg) where because it is smaller than 5, we round it down to 1.56g

Then the maximum is 1.564g

And the minimum value is when we have:

w = 1.555g

Because the third digit is a 5, we round it up to 1.56g.

So the lower limit is 1.555g and the upper limit is 1.564g

A piece of string is 1650 cm long.
balandron [24]

Answer: The smaller piece is 750m long.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the smaller piece be x

so

150m + x + x = 1650

150 + 2x = 1650

or, 2x = 1500

so, x = 750 m
