4 0

Answer:

x=-4, 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

x/(x+3)=4/(x+5)

cross product

4(x+3)=x(x+5)

4x+12=x^2+5x

x^2+5x-4x-12=0

x^2+x-12=0

factor out the trinomial,

(x+4)(x-3)=0

zero property,

x+4=0, x-3=0,

x=0-4=-4

x=0+3=3

The length of a rectangle is 3 cm less than twice the width. If the perimeter is 42 cm, what is the length of the rectangle?
larisa [96]

Answer:

The length is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

w+w+l+l= perimeter

if the length is 3m less than twice the width then let's do some math.

42 divided 2 =21. so the width and length of one side have to equal 21. For example, let's use 8 as the width. The length would be twice(16) minus three(13) 13 plus 8 is 21. WOW it equals half of it so no we know the length is 13 and the wdith is 8.

Gas consumption is affected by driving on hills and mountainous terrain, by the state of the roads (such as stop-and-go city traffic or highway travel), and by the weather (such as high winds or snow). We can safely infer that under a number of
