Square are the same size all the way around, which means every side = x + 4

The perimeter of a square = 4 * side

the perimeter = 44 cm

Let's plug our values into the formula above.

44 cm = 4 * (x + 4)

Distribute the 4

44 cm = 4x + 16

Subtract 16 from both sides

28 cm = 4x

Divide both sides by 4

7 = x

Average Rate of Change: $\displaystyle \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Interval -1 ≤ x ≤ 3

a = -1, b = 3

f(a) = f(-1) = 4

f(b) = f(3) = -4

Step 2: Find Average

Substitute in variables [ARC]: $\displaystyle \frac{f(3) - f(-1)}{3 + 1}$
Substitute: $\displaystyle \frac{-4 - 4}{3 + 1}$
[Fraction] Subtract/Add: $\displaystyle \frac{-8}{4}$
[Fraction] Divide: $\displaystyle -2$

malik collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps. he has 34 more domestic stamps than foreign stamps. let x represent th

valina [46]

x = number of domestic stamps

y = number of foreign stamps

Malik collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps.

=> x + y = 212

he has 34 more domestic stamps than foreign stamps.

=> x = y + 34

which equation represents the total number of stamps malik collected?

x + y = 212

which equation represents the difference in the number of foreign and domestic stamps malik collected?

x - y = 34

which system of linear equations represents the situation?

x + y = 212
x - y = 34
