Answer:
The dimensions are length=32 inches and width=24 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that perimeter of a rectangle is
The ratio of its length to width is 4:3.
This implies that,
We substitute P=112 inches, and l in terms of w to get;
The length is
Answer:
x=11,y=10.
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
We can form an equation in x and y using this property.
2y+2=2x
and x+9=2y.
Solving the second equation for x ,
x=2y-9.
Substituting x value in 2y+2=2x
2y+2=2(2y-9)
Or ,2y+2=4y-18.
Adding 18 both sides:
2y+20=4y.
Subtracting 2y both sides
20=2y.
Dividing both sides by 2:
y=10.
x=2y-9
x=2(10)-9 ( substituting y value)
x=20-9=11
x=11 and y=10 will make the figure a parallelogram.
The answer to this question should be -2x
