You always either divide the equation or multiply the equation
hope this helps
Hello!
When finding the perimeter of a rectangle, you have to consider the properties of a rectangle. A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides where one is the width, while the other one is the length.
Now looking back at your question, it says "... a rectangle that is x units wide" ⇒ you let the width = x ; this is the same with "y units long" ⇒ length = y. Perimeter can just be : P = 24.
Therefore,
The equation would be:
x + x + y + y = P.
2x + 2y = P.
(Sub in P = 24)
∴ 2x + 2y = 24. (This should be your answer.)
:) Good luck (Message me if you have any problem)
Let us always base on the present age. We denote this by x. Now, the age he had 2 years ago would then be denoted as (x-2). Let's equate this to 20 years old.
x - 2 = 20
x = 20 + 2
x = 22 years old
He should be 22 years old now.
Let's check the other condition. After 1 year, his age should be (x+1). Let's equate this to 23 years old.
x + 1 = 23
x = 23 - 1
x = 22
Thus, this is possible if Reuben is 22 years old as of the present.
Before we begin, let's identify what kind of angles these are and are they related in any way?
These angles are both acute and they are both corresponding angles.
Corresponding angles are equal to each other, and we can use this fact to our advantage.
Since they are equal to each other, we can set the equations of 1 and 2 equal to each other. Like so,
1 = 2
83 - 2x = 92 - 3x
Now, we can solve for X by isolating it on one side.
83 - 2x = 92 - 3x
Add 3x to each side: (This basically moves the X on the right side to the left.)
83 - 2x + 3x = 92 - 3x + 3x
83 + x = 92
Subtract 83 on each side to isolate the X.
83 + x - 83 = 92 - 83
x = 92 - 83
x = 9
Therefore, X equals 9. To check our work, we can substitute X for 9.
83 - 2(9) = 92 - 3(9)
83 - 18 = 92 - 27
65 = 65 -
TRUE
So to conclude, Angle 1 is 65 degrees, Angle 2 is 65 degrees, and X equals 9.
