Answer:

$P = 74\ meters$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the lengths of its 4 sides.

The formula for calculating the perimeter of a rectangle is as follows:

$P = 2w + 2l$

Where P is the perimeter, w is the width and l is the length.

In this case we want to find P and we know that:

$w =16\ meters$

$l =21\ meters$

Therefore:

$P = 2(16) + 2(21)$

$P = 32 + 42$

$P = 74\ meters$

4) n=12 this is because 45/4=11.25 and dividing 135 by 11.25 equals to 12

5) n=2.5 this is because 5/2=2.5 and multiplying 1 by 2.5 equals to 2.5

hope this helps :)

Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + x^2 = 13^2

144 + x^2 = 169

x^2 = 25

square root both sides

x = 5

to check, do 12^2 + 5^2 =169

sqrt of 169 is 13

hope this helps

Simplify. Assume that no denominator is equal to zero.
