Answer:
The value of x is 12 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The shape in question is a composite shape. We can see that x is both the base of the triangle and the breadth of the rectangle.
To get the area of the shape, we will have to add the area of the rectangle to the area of the triangle.
Area of rectangle = length X breadth
Area of triangle = 1/2 base X height.
However, to calculate the area of the triangle, we need to find its height first.
The next step is to get the height of the triangle. Observing the shape properly, we can see that we can get the height by subtracting the length of the rectangle from the overall length of the shape.
Height of triangle = 16 ft - 10 ft = 6 ft
recall area = 156 square feet.
We now have most of our missing dimensions
We can now set up an equation as follows:
Therefore the value of x is 12 feet
Answer: w= 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
11/15=8/15 -w
-W= 8/15 -11/15
-w= 8-11/15 =-3/15
-w=-3/15
w=3/15= 1/5
The answer is 6x+7x there is no answer without the value of c

Answer:
Area of the new rectangle = 148.8 cm square
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the dimensions of the rectangle then the
Perimeter of the Original rectangle= 2(L+B)
= 2 ( 3x+2x) = 2(5x)= 10xcm
If the length is increased by eight the new length would be 3x+ 8
and width would be 2x+x= 3x after 50 % increase
Perimeter of the new rectangle= 2(L+B)
= 2 ( 3x+8 +3x)
= 2 (6x+8)
= 12x + 16
Ratio of the new perimeter to the original perimeter is
New perimeter : Original perimeter
8 : 5
12x+ 16 : 10x cm
80x= 60x + 16
20x= 16
x= 16/20= 4/5
Putting the value of length and breadth in place of x
Area of the new rectangle = L*B = 3 * (4/5) +8 *3(4/5)=
= 12+ 40/5 * 12/5
= 62/5* 12/5
= 744/5
= 148.8 cm square
