The sides of the rectangla are its length and width. We know the length is 5m longer than the width. Since we dont know the width, we can say that the width is x and the length is x+5.

The perimeter, as we know, is equal to the sum of all sides. We have two “length” sides and two “width” sides, so our equation is:

x + x + x+5 + x+5 = 46
Lets add all of this:
4x + 10 = 46
4x = 46-10
4x = 36
x = 36/4
x = 9

So our width is 9m and the length is 14m.

The area of a rectangle is width times length, so:
9*14=126m^2.

Now that we’ve learned how to solve word problems involving the sum of consecutive integers, let’s narrow it down and this time, focus on word problems that only involve finding the sum of consecutive even integers.

But before we start delving into word problems, it’s important that we have a good understanding of what even integers, as well as consecutive even integers, are.

Even Integers

We know that even numbers are integers that can be divided exactly or evenly by 22. Thus, the general form of the even integer nn, is n = 2kn=2k, where kk is also an integer.

In other words, since even numbers are the multiples of 22, we can represent an even integer nn by 2k2k, where kk is also an integer. So if we have the even integers 1010 and 1616,

Find the missing length
jasenka [17]

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For this you will have to use pythagoras’ theorem.

The formula for the shorter side of this triangle is u²=c²-b² (or in this case u²=17²-8²).

17²=289

8²=64

The formula becomes u²=289-64 or u²=225

Then to find u on its own you have to square root 225.

The square root of 225 is 15.

ascending order:11,12,13,15,15,16,16,20,21,23,29,30,30

number of terms =13

median=[(n+1)/2] th term

=[(13+1)/2] th term

=[14/2] th tem

=7th term

=16
