The width of the rug is 9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rug = 42 feet

Lengths are same in square and rectangle shapes; therefore;

Length of rug = 12 feet

Width of rug = w

Perimeter = Length + Length + Width + Width

Perimeter = 12+12+w+w

42=24+2w\\42-24=2w\\18=2w\\2w=18

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2w}{2}=\frac{18}{2}\\w=9

The width of the rug is 9 feet.

Find the value of x. Then find the measure of each labeled angle
Artyom0805 [142]

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 10 :

3x + 6 = 4x – 12 ( reason: corresponding angles due to parallel lines)

simplify and get x, thus x = 18

to find 3x + 6 or 4x - 12(which is both the same),

3(18) + 6 = 60° , 4(18) - 12 = 60°

Question 11:

2x + 24 + x = 180 ( reason: interior angles due to parallel lines)

simplify again to get x, you will get x = 52

then find the individual by subbing in the value of x into the equation.

so 2x + 24 = 2(52)+24 = 128° and x = 52°

How to graph an exponential function
irina1246 [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential function is given by general form y=ab^x

Where a and b are constants.

say a=1 and b=2 then we can write function as :

y=1*2^x

or y=2^x

To graph this or any exponential function, we just need to find some points then join them by a curved line.

Like plug x=0, 1, 2,... into above function and find points:

plug x=1

y=2^x=2^1=2

Hence point is (1,2)

Find more points similarly then graph them to get the graph as shown below:

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer: x =3

Step-by-step explanation:

2× 3 = 6

length= 5 inches

width= 2×3= 6 inches

2(l+w) = 2(5+6)

2(11)

2×11= 22

hope this helps:-)

It’s a easy mathswatch questionnnnn helpppppp meeeeeeeee
pychu [463]

Answer:

15, 6 and - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given x - y = 3 , then

(a)

5(x - y) = 5(3) = 15

(b)

2x - 2y ← factor out 2 from each term

= 2(x - y) = 2(3) = 6

(c)

y - x ← factor out - 1 from each term

= - 1(x - y) = - 1(3) = - 3
