Answer:

Length = 11

Width = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the length is x and the width is x - 5 since it is 5 less than the length.

The equation to find the perimeter of a rectangle is 2w + 2l

We will plug in the values and solve

2(x-5) + 2(x) = 34

2x - 10 + 2x = 34

4x - 10 = 34

4x = 44

x = 11

Since the length is simply x, we know that it is 11. We subtract 5 to find the width.

11 - 5 = 6.

The width is 6.

3. A bicycle wheel has a diameter of 559 mm and has 32 equally spaced spokes. What is the approximate arc
bija089 [108]
Circumference = πd = 3.14*559 = 1755.26
The spokes divide the circumference into 32 arcs. Each arc length is 1755.26/32 = 54.75 mm

What is 1 5/8- 3/8 Express the answer in simplest form
Naddika [18.5K]
1 5/8 - 3/8 = 1 1/4

Subtract the numerators because the common denominators are the same and leave the whole number to make 1 2/8. To simplify it you divide it by 2 because that's the highest number that can go into both numerator and denominator to make is 1 1/4.

Solve this system of equations: y = x2 – 3x + 12 y = –2x + 14 What are the solutions ?
Nuetrik [128]
Answer:
The solution to the system of equation would be the two order pairs (2,10) and (-1,16)

Explanation:
The solution means the value of x that satisfies both equations.
Therefore, we will equate the two equations given and solve for x.
The first is: y = x^2 - 3x + 12
The second is : y = -2x + 14
Equate both and solve for x as follows:
x^2 - 3x + 12 = -2x + 14
x^2 - 3x + 2x + 12 - 14 = 0
x^2 - x - 2 = 0
(x-2)(x+1) = 0
either x = 2 and y = (2)^2 - 3(2) + 12 = -2(2) + 14 = 10
or x = -1 and y = (-1)^2 - 3(-1) + 12 = -2(-1) + 14 = 16
Therefore, the solution to the system of equation would be the two order pairs (2,10) and (-1,16)

Hope this helps :)
