Answer:

Square: 12 unites

triangle shorter side: 10 units

triangle longer sides: 19 units, 19 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

First, we make the equations to find the perimeters of each shape by adding all the sides

Square: 4x + 4x + (3x+ 3) + (3x + 3)

Triangle: (7x - 2) + (7x - 2) + (2x + 4)

Since the perimeters are equal we can show that

4x + 4x + (3x+ 3) + (3x + 3) = (7x - 2) + (7x - 2) + (2x + 4)

Now we can solve for x.

Combine like terms

14x + 6 = 16x

Subtract 14x from both sides

6 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

3 = x

Now we know what x is we can put that into the sides of the shapes

Square

4(x)

Put in x

4(3) = 12

The Square is 12 units

Triangle Short Side

2x + 4

Put in x

2(3) + 4

6 + 4

10

The shorter side of the triangle is 10 units

Triangle Longer Side

7x - 2

Put in x

7(3) - 2

21 - 2

19

The longer sides are 19 units

Hope This Helps!

Answer:

<em>Square= 12 units</em>

<em>Triangle long sides= 19 units</em>

<em>Triamgle short side= 10 units</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>It is a square, so all sides are the same.  That means 3x+3 equals 4x.  What number can be subsituted into x to equal 4?  If x is 3, then 3x+3 would be 3(3)+3.  It equals 12.  4 times 3 is also 12.  It works!  That also means the square's side is 12 units.</em>

<em>Square= 12 units</em>

<em />

<u><em>So, x=3</em></u>

<em />

<em>The triangle's longer sides are 7x-2.  Subsitute x in, which is 3, and you get 7(3)-2.  It equals 19.  The two longer sides of the triangle are the same length, so both are 19 units.</em>

<em>Triangle long sides= 19 units</em>

<em />

<em>The triangles shorter side is 2x+4.  Subsitute 3 in for x and you get 2(3)+4.  It equals 10, so the shorter side is 10 units.</em>

<em>Triangle short side= 10 units</em>

What are two other names for ray CD?
Masja [62]
<span>Naming of rays Rays are commonly named in two ways: By two points. In the figure at the top of the page, the ray would be called AB because starts at point A and passes through B on it's way to infinity. Recall that points are usually labelled with single upper-case (capital) letters. There is a symbol for this which looks like this: AB This is read as "ray AB". The arrow over the two letters indicates it is a ray, and the arrow direction indicates that A is the point where the ray starts. By a single letter. (I have not seen this done.) The ray above would be called simply "q". By convention, this is usually a single lower case (small) letter. This is normally used when the ray does not pass through another labeled point.</span>

Define natural hazard?

A natural hazard is a natural phenomenon that might have a negative effect on humans and other animals, or the environment. Natural hazard events can be classified into two broad categories: geophysical and biological.

What is the difference between tectonic hazards and weather hazards ?

Tectonic hazards occur when the Earth's crust moves. For example, when the plates move, friction can cause them to become stuck. Tension builds until the plates release, which leads to an earthquake. Climatic hazards occur when a region has certain weather conditions, for example heavy rainfall can lead to flooding.

why do convection currents in the mantle occur?

Heat rising and falling inside the mantle creates convection currents generated by radioactive decay in the core. The convection currents move the plates. Where convection currents diverge near the Earth's crust, plates move apart

Walter is practicing his high jumps for the track team. His first jump measured 5 feet, 9 inches. His second jump measured 3 fee
tia_tia [17]

Answer: 1.834 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Walter's first Jump is 5 ft, 9 in.

His second Jump is 3 ft, 11 in.

We know,

1\ ft=12\ in

Converting inches to feet

First Jump in feet

\Rightarrow 5\ ft+\frac{9}{12}\ ft=5.75\ ft

Second jump

\Rightarrow 3\ ft+\frac{11}{12}\ ft=3.916\ ft

The difference in the measurement of two Jumps is

\Rightarrow 5.75-3.916=1.834\ ft

So, Walter first Jump is 1.834 ft higher than the second Jump
