Answer:
4(x-1)units
Step-by-step explanation:
In a given rectangle, the length of the rectangle is the shorter side while its breadth is the longer side.
Since we have 2 lengths and 2 breadths in a rectangle, the perimeter of the rectangle will be 2L+2x where
L is the length(shorter side) and x is the breadth (longer side).
According to the question, the shorter side(L) is 2 units less than the longer side(x). Mathematically,
L = x-2
Substituting L = x-2 into the formula of perimeter of a rectangle we have,
P = 2(x-2) + 2x
P = 2x-4+2x
P = 4x-4
P = 4(x-1)
The perimeter of the rectangle will be 4(x-1)units
Depends. It’s called an asterisk.
In math it’s used for multiplying.
So 5*5= 25
Answer: x=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
8-3x-x=12
-3x-x=-4x
8-4x=12
-8 -8
-4x=4
-4x/-4=4/-4
x=-1
Use the equation .8x + x = 252
x is the number, and .8 is the decimal equivalent of 80%.
1.8x = 252
x = 140
