Rectangular swimming pool has a perimeter of (6x-6) feet and a width of x. find the length

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dvinal [7]3 years ago
7 0
The first thing you should know for this case is that the perimeter of a rectangle is defined as:
 P = 2L + 2W
 Where
 L = length
 W = Wide
 We then have to clear the length:
 L = (P-2W) / 2
 Substituting the values
 L = ((6x-6) -2x) / 2
 Rewriting:
 L = ((3x-3) -x)
 L = 2x-3
 Answer:
 the length is
 2x-3

What value of x makes the equation 8(1.5x - 6) = 2x - 0.5(24 - 16x? true?
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

x=18

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

8(1.5x−6)=2x−0.5(24−16x)

(8)(1.5x)+(8)(−6)=2x+(−0.5)(24)+(−0.5)(−16x)(Distribute)

12x+−48=2x+−12+8x

12x−48=(2x+8x)+(−12)(Combine Like Terms)

12x−48=10x+−12

12x−48=10x−12

Step 2: Subtract 10x from both sides.

12x−48−10x=10x−12−10x

2x−48=−12

Step 3: Add 48 to both sides.

2x−48+48=−12+48

2x=36

Step 4: Divide both sides by 2.

2x/2=36/2

x=18

Answer:

x=18

The probability
Verdich [7]

Probability of distinct 3-digits is 1/6.

Probability of both the first digit and the last digit are even numbers is 1/5.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Given set of numbers {1,2,3,5,8,9} = 6

Total number of 3-digits can be formed = 6\times5\times4 = 120.

<u>Probability  of the three-digit numbers with distinct digits</u> :

The number of 3-digit numbers with distinct digits = (6\times5\times4) / (3\times2\times1) = 20.

P(distinct 3-digits) =  no. of distinct 3-digits / Total no.of 3-digits

⇒ 20/120

⇒ 1/6

<u>Probability that both the first digit and the last digit of the three-digit number are even numbers</u> :

The even numbers in the set are 2 and 8 = 2 possibilities.

The number of 3-digits with 1st and 3rd digit are even = (2\times6\times2) = 24.

P(1st and 3rd digits even)= no. of 1st and 3rd digit even/Total no. of 3-digits.

⇒ 24/120

⇒ 1/5

F(g(x)= x+4
f(x+4)= 5(x+4)-9
=5x+20-9
=5x+11
g(f(x)= 5x-9
g(5x-9)=5x-9+4
=5x-5
