(a) The sum of length and width is half the perimeter, so the breadth in terms of length (x) in cm will be
.. breadth = 34 -x
(b) Then the expression for the area (in cm^2) is
.. area = length*breadth
.. 253 = (x)(34 -x)
.. x^2 -34x +253 = 0 . . . . . subtract the right side, eliminate parentheses
.. (x -11)(x -23) = 0 . . . . . . . factor
.. x = 11 or 23
The dimensions of the rectangle are 11 cm by 23 cm.
Hi there!
So -5 1/2 + 7 3/4 is
Improper fraction: 9/4
Decimal: 2.25
Mixed Number: 2 1/4
Well... Basically, you should prove this by SSS property(side-side-side). It's fair to say that the length of a side is equal to itself so The line that cuts through the rectangle is a side for both rectangles. Thus because of the given, all the sides of the triangles are equal to one another. This is a very important trick for geometry(I remember using it a lot).
Hope this helps!
Floyd's contract consists of
(i) $200 per month fixed.
(i) $12 per album sold.
Let x = number of albums sold last month.
Because total earnings is $644, therefore
200 + 12x = 644
To find x, do the following:
Subtract 200 from each side.
12x = 644 - 200 = 444
Divide each side by 12.
x = 444/12 = 37
Answer:
The equation is 12x + 200 = 644.
The solution for x (number of albums sold) is 37.
Answer:
34 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
2:25 = x:425
25/2 = 12.5
425/12.5 = 34
so it is 34:425
