Yes, if you just distribute 2(x-6). Then you would have 2x-12 = -35 then add 12 to the -35 and your answer would be 2x = -23 and leads to them being equivalent.
The area is 10 just use a area calculator!
Given:
- the perimeter of a rectangular field is 84 yards
- the ratio of the length to the width is 2:1
To find:
- the length
- the width
- the area
Answer:
Let's assume that the length is 2x and the width is 1x.
We know that the formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle is as follows:
Perimeter = 2 × (Length + Width)
Substituting the values that we have, into the formula above,
84 = 2 × (2x + 1x)
84 = 2 × 3x
84/2 = 3x
42 = 3x
x = 42/3
x = 14
Since we know the value of 'x', let's use it to find the length and the width.
Length = 2x = 2 × 14 = 28
Width = 1x = 1 × 14 = 14
Since we now know the length and the width, let's find the area of the rectangle.
The formula to find the area of a rectangle:
Area = Length × Width
Substituting the values we have into the formula,
Area = 28 × 14
Area = 392
Therefore, the area of the rectangle is 392 square yards.
Hope it helps. :)
Hey there! :D
Since all the terms are being added together, and there is a common denominator with the fractions, we can just add them.
x+x= 2x 3/4+2/4= 5/4
2x+5/4
2x+1.25<== simplest form
I hope this helps!
