Whats 15-b=4b-5(5-3)

Mathematics
1 answer:
Gala2k [10]3 years ago
5 0

15-b=4b-5(5-3)

Multiply the bracket by -5

(-5)(5)=-25

(-5)(-3)=15

15-b=4b-25+15

15-b=4b-10

Move 15 to the other side

Sign changes from +15 to -15

15-15-b=4b-10-15

-b=4b-25

Move 4b to the other side.

-b-4b=4b-4b-25

-b-4b=-25

-5b=-25

divide both sides by -5

-5b/-5=-25/-5

Answer: b=5

24. Rectangle A is 16 feet wide and is 8 feet longer than Rectangle B which is 14 feet wide.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

The Area of rectangle A is  576 feet²  .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The width of rectangle A = 16 feet

The Length of rectangle A = 8 feet + The length of rectangle B

The width of rectangle B = 14 feet

Let The length of rectangle B = L feet

So, The Length of rectangle A = 8 feet + L feet

The perimeter of rectangle A + The perimeter of rectangle B = 156 feet

So, 2 × ( Length A + width A ) +  2 × ( Length B + width B ) = 156 feet

Or,  2 × ( 8 + L + 16 ) +  2 × ( L + 14 ) = 156 feet

Or,  2 ×( 24 + L ) +  2 × ( L + 14 ) = 156 feet

Or, 48 + 2 L + 2 L + 28 = 156

Or, 76 L + 4 L = 156

So, 4 L = 156 - 76

Or, 4 L = 80

∴  L = \frac{80}{4} = 20 feet

So , The Length of rectangle A = 8 feet + 28 feet = 36 feet

And The width of rectangle A = 16 feet

So, Area of rectangle A = Length of rectangle A × width of rectangle A

I.e  Area of rectangle A = 36 × 16 = 576 feet²

Hence The Area of rectangle A is  576 feet²  . Answer
