Okay, so you know that the perimeter of the pen is 28 feet. Now we need the separate side lengths.
P = 28 ft.
Length = x
Width = (1/2)x + 2
So now we can plug in the little equations of length and width into a perimeter formula:
2(x) + 2((1/2)x + 2) = 28
Distribute the 2's and solve as needed.
2x + x + 4 = 28
3x + 4 = 28
3x = 24
x = 8
To find the width, just plug in 8 for x in our little equation:
(1/2)(8) + 2
= 6
So, the length is 8 feet and the width is 6 feet.
Answer:
The first step is to replace the y in y-x=15 with 7x (we can do this because the first equation tells us that they're equal)
solve and get
(2.5,17.5)
or x= 2.5 y=17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to recognize that y=7x which means that we can just replace the y in the second equation with 7x
7x-x=15
6x=15
x=2.5
Then we can solve for y
y=7(2.5)
y=17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Sin(angle) = Opp/Hyp
Sin44 = 10/BC
0.6947 = 10/BC
Cross multiply
BC 0.6947 = 10
Divide both side by 0.6947
BC = 14.39
