What is the value of x if length is 3x-1 and width is x and the perimeter is 84

Mathematics

Answer:

x = 10.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, we need to know the equation for the perimeter of a rectangle.  This equation is:

P = 2L + 2W

Where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is the width.

We are given P = 84, L = 3x -1 , and W = x.  Now we just plug these values in and solve for x.

P = 2L + 2W

84 = 2 ( 3x - 1 ) + 2 ( x )

84 = 6x - 2 + 2x

84 = 8x - 2

86 = 8x

86 / 8 = x

43 / 4 = x

(40 + 3) / 4 = x

10.75 = x

Hence, the value of x = 10.75.

Cheers.

What is the product of the two binomials below?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

A. 9A² - 16B²

Step-by-step explanation:

(3A + 4B)(3A - 4B)

Distribute:

3A(3A - 4B)

4B(3A - 4B)

Multiply:

3A(3A - 4B)

3A(3A) + 3A(-4B)

9A² - 12AB

4B(3A - 4B)

4B(3A) + 4B(-4B)

12AB - 16B²

Combine like terms:

9A² - 12AB + 12AB - 16B² <== -12AB + 12AB cancels out

9A² - 16B²

Therefore, our final answer is 9A² - 16B²

Hope this helps!

Solve the following linear system of equations using substitution.
DerKrebs [107]

( - 1, - 8 )

since both equations give y in terms of x we can equate them

3x - 5 = 2x - 6

subtract 2x from both sides of the equation

3x - 2x - 5 = - 6

x - 5 = - 6

add 5 to both sides

x = - 6 + 5 = - 1

substitute x = - 1 into either of the 2 equations for y

y = (3 × - 1) - 5 = - 3 - 5 = - 8

solution to the system is (- 1, - 8 )
