The perimeter of a rectangle is 68 ft.

1 answer:

5 0

Let the length be 9x and the width = 8x
Perimeter = 2(l + w) = 2(9x + 8x) = 2(17x) = 34x = 68
x = 68/34 = 2
9x = 9(2) = 18 ft
8x = 8(2) = 16 ft
Therefore, dimensions are 18 ft by 16ft

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

1 (8/9) = 1.88888888
3 (11/12) = 3.9166666667 


3.91666 / 1.8888 = 2.0735294118 

So, she can make 2 batches of cupcakes.

Your friend says that the absolute value equation | 3x+8 |-9=-5 has no solution because the constant

sineoko [7]

Answer:

Incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

$\displaystyle \large{|3x+8|-9=-5}$

Add both sides by 9.

$\displaystyle \large{|3x+8|-9 + 9=-5 + 9} \\ \displaystyle \large{|3x+8|=4}$

When we want to tell if the absolute equation has solutions or not, we have to simplify in this form first: or isolate the absolute sign.

$\displaystyle \large{ |ax + b| = c}$

If c ≥ 0, the equation has solutions.

If c < 0, the equation does not have solutions.

Therefore, it does not always matter if the constant on right side is in negative because if there is a number on the left side then there is a chance that the equation has solutions.

From |3x+8| = 4 is equivalent |3x+8|-9=-5 and the right side is 4 which is positive.

Hence, the equation does have a solution!
