Let's call the width of our rectangle w and the length l. We can say l = w + 4, since the length is equal to 4 cm greater than the width.


Also remember that the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of two times the width and two times the length, or P = 2l + 2w. To solve this problem, we can substitute in the information we know, as shown below:

150 = 2(w + 4) + 2w

150 = 4w + 8

142 = 4w

w = \frac{71}{2}


Now, we can substitute in the width we found into the formula for length, which is l = w + 4:

l = \frac{71}{2} + 4

l = \frac{79}{2}


The width of our rectangle is \boxed{\frac{71}{2} \,\, \textrm{cm}} cm and the length of our rectangle is \boxed{\frac{79}{2} \,\, \textrm{cm}}

If ∠A and ∠B are complementary, find the value of x given that ∠A=3x-2 and ∠B=x+12
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

x=20 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary means the angles equal 90 degrees

so ∠A+∠B=90 degrees

∠A=3x-2 and ∠B=x+12

so subsitute

(3x-2)+(x+12)=90

then solve for x

4x+10=90

4x=80

x=20 degrees is your answer

This is the result of solving an equation to find a value(s) for the variable(s) which make the equation true.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8−2(3−x)=4x+6

8+(−2)(3)+(−2)(−x)=4x+6(Distribute)

8+−6+2x=4x+6

(2x)+(8+−6)=4x+6(Combine Like Terms)

2x+2=4x+6

2x+2=4x+6

Step 2: Subtract 4x from both sides.

2x+2−4x=4x+6−4x

−2x+2=6

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

−2x+2−2=6−2

−2x=4

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x

−2

=

4

−2
