The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal, so we can write the following equations:
2x = 3y + 5 ...........(1)
x = 2y + 2 .............(2)
Multiply equation (2) by 2, to get:
2x = 4y + 4 ...........(3)
The right hand sides of equations (1) and (3) are equal, so we can write:
3y + 5 = 4y + 4
which gives y = 1 as the solution.
Plugging y = 1 into equation (2), we find the x = 4.
So the full solution is: x = 4, y = 1.

Order these numbers for lest to greatest 1/2 ,1.1 ,5/3 ,2, 0 ,0.4, -2 ,5/8
Nat2105 [25]

The least number should always start off with negatives if there are any. In this case there is so we can start with -2 as our least amount. Next are the small fractions. If you're allowed a calculator, I would use that to find what the decimals will look like for each fraction:

\frac{1}{2} =0.5\\ \\ \frac{5}{3} =1.6666666666666666666666666666667\\ \\ \frac{5}{8} =0.625

After -2 the next least number is 0 and the next one is the fraction or decimal closest to the number 0 which is 0.4

The next number would be from the fractions we solved earlier. 0.5 and 0.625 would follow 0.4 and then 1.1 and 1.6667(solved for from fraction).

Here is the list:

-2,0,0.4,\frac{1}{2} ,\frac{5}{8} ,1.1,\frac{5}{3}

Hope this helps!

The area of the Pacific Ocean is 63,780,000 square miles. The Atlantic Ocean is 2.27 cross times 10 to the power of 7 square mil
olganol [36]

Answer:

4.11 * 10⁷ square miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P = pacific ocean

A = Atlantic ocean

P = 63,780,000 = 6.38 * 10⁷

Since A is 2.27 * 10⁷ square miles smaller than the pacific ocean,

The area of A = 6.38 * 10⁷ - 2.27 * 10⁷

The area of the atlantic ocean = 4.11 * 10⁷ square miles
