Which statement is true?
1 answer:
The correct statement is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
For backyard
Length = 5x-2
Width = 2x+4
For house
Length = 5x-2
Width = 4x-12
For driveway
Length = x+10
Width = 4x-12
To find the correct statement.
Formula
The area of a rectangle = Length × Width
So,
The area of the house and the driveway = (5x-2)(4x-12) + (x+10)(4x-12)
= (4x-12)(5x-2+x+10)
= (4x-12)(6x+8)
=
=
So, the correct statement is D

Answer:
The larger angle is 144 degrees and the smaller angle is 36 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Because this is a supplementary angle you have to find out what x is to solve this equation
Because 2.4x and 9.6x are like terms we add them
So now to find x we divide 180 by 12 to get 15
We replace the x with 15
We add 36 and 144 which equals 180
