Answer: Length = 11

              Width = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the unknown length.

Let x - 2 represent the unknown width.

The perimeter is equal to 2 times x + (x -2)

Equation:

2 (x + (x - 2)) = 40

x + (x - 2) = 40/2

x + x - 2 = 20

2x - 2 = 20

2x -2 + 2 = 20 + 2

The length is: 2x = 22 -> x = 22/2 -> x = 11

The width is: x - 2 = 9

What is the equation 22-2h=-5?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

h = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

5h + 22 + -2h = -5

Reorder the terms:

22 + 5h + -2h = -5

Combine like terms: 5h + -2h = 3h

22 + 3h = -5

Solving

22 + 3h = -5

Solving for variable 'h'.

Move all terms containing h to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-22' to each side of the equation.

22 + -22 + 3h = -5 + -22

Combine like terms: 22 + -22 = 0

0 + 3h = -5 + -22

3h = -5 + -22

Combine like terms: -5 + -22 = -27

3h = -27

Divide each side by '3'.

h = -9

Simplifying

h = -9

If anyone can answer this, I will give you hearts!
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotation 270° counterclockwise is equivalent to rotation 90° clockwise. The transformation of coordinates is ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x) . . . . . . . rotation 270° CCW

This means the points are moved to ...

  A(-2, 1) ⇒ A'(1, 2)

  B( 1, 2) ⇒ B'(2, -1)

  C(-2, 4) ⇒ C'(4, 2)

The rotated triangle is shown in the attachment. You may notice that A' and B are the same point.
