Answer:

VW=21\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

Point W is between point V and point X

Points W,V and X are collinear

so

VX=VW+WX -----> equation A (by addition segment postulate)

we know

VX=(5x+1)\ units\\VW=(4x-7)\ units\\WX=3x\ units

substitute the given values in the equation A and solve for x

5x+1=(4x-7)+3x

Combine like terms in the right sides

5x+1=(7x-7)

Group terms that contain the same variable

7x-5x=1+7

2x=8

x=4

<em>Find the length of VW</em>

VW=(4x-7)\ units

substitute the value of x

VW=(4(4)-7)=21\ units

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

c = -75/14 OR c = -5.357143

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both equations:

1.2x + 7 - 5x =

-3.8x + 7

2.2c - 3 = 2(6 - c) + 7c =

c = −5.357143

OR

c = -75/14

The question wasn't quite clear, if this wasn't correct, please elaborate on what needed to be solved, and I'll fix my answer.

A rectangle has a width of 10cm. The rectangle length is 4 times its width
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

P = 100 centimeters (assuming you are asking for the perimeter)

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2 (L + W) OR P =  2L + 2W where P equals the perimeter, L equals the length, and W equals the width.

Since the rectangle's length is 4 times its width and given we know the width is 10 centimeters, then the length is 40 centimeters. Now we can substitute these values in our formula, okay?  

P = 2 (L + W)  

P = 2 (40 + 10)  

P = 80 + 20  

P = 100 centimeters
