Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a polygon = Sum of all sides of the polygon

Perimeter of the given rectangle = 2[(5x - 2) + (3x - 0.5)]

                                                      = 2[8x - 2.5]

                                                      = (16x - 5)

Perimeter of the given triangle = (2x + 3) + (2x + 3) + (10x - 5)

                                                   = 14x + 1

Since perimeter of the rectangle and triangle are same, equation will be

(16x - 5) = (14x + 1)

16x - 14x = 5 + 1

2x = 6

x = 3

Perimeter = (16x - 5)

                 = 48 - 5

                 = 43 units

What is the solution to the system of equations y= -5x + 30 x = 10
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

We have been given the equation:

y=-5x+30

And x=10

Substitute the given x in the given equation we get:

y=-5(10)+30

y=-50+30

On simplification we get:

y=-20

Required solution is:  x= 10 and y=-20

The solution to the system of equation is those points that satisfy the given system of equations.
