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.

If the equation below represents the total cost of 3 boxes of cereal and 2 loaves of bread is $15," then x represents
Liula [17]

Answer:

C. The cost of a box of cereal

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we are given the number of 3 boxes of cereal, 2 loaves of bread, and that the total cost is $15. We can see these numbers in the equation, and putting it into context, we see that the 15 is on the right side of the equation, which indicates cash. Therefore, the 3 and 2 are accounted for, but their prices are unknown. X is a placeholder for the unidentified cost of a box of cereal, and we know that it's the boxes of cereal and not the loaves of bread because there are 3 and not 2.

What is the median of the data set?<br><br><br><br> 9<br> 8.5<br> 8<br> 10
Allushta [10]

Answer:

8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

When you write out the data set, it looks like this:

5, 8, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10

The median means the exact middle of the data set. In this case, it falls between the 8 and the 9, so the middle would be 8.5, so that's the median of the set. I hope this helps :)
