Answer: x=25

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to calculate the value of "x", you can set up de following proportion:

\frac{BQ+QD}{QD}=\frac{RC+CD}{CD}\\\\\frac{24+40}{40}=\frac{15+x}{x}

Now, the final step is to solve for "x" to find its value.

Therefore, its value is the following:

1.6=\frac{15+x}{x}\\\\1.6x=x+15\\\\1.6x-x=15\\\\0.6x=15\\\\x=\frac{15}{0.6}\\\\x=25

The width of a rectangle is 1.9 feet. The perimeter is 7.4 feet. What is the length?
dimaraw [331]

Answer:2.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

length(l)=?

breadth(b)= 1.9 feet

perimeter(p)=7.4 feet

we know,

p=2(l+b)

7.4=2(l+1.9)

7.4=2l+3.8

2l=7.4-3.8 (changing side and bringing 3.8 to 7.4 it gets -3.8)

l=3.6/2

l=2.8 feet

Hence,length is 2.8 feet
