Answer:

p=6b

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the length of the rectangle

y----> the width of the rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is equal to

P=2(x+y)

P=p\ cm

so

p=2(x+y) -----> equation A

y=b\ cm ----> given problem

x=2y -------> x=2b\ cm

substitute the value of x and the value of y in the equation A

p=2(2b+b)

p=2(3b)

p=6b

Answer these three please!!
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

10. x = 3 ± 2√6

11. x = 4 ± √6

12. x = \frac{- 7 + \sqrt{109}}{10} and x = \frac{- 7 - \sqrt{109}}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

10. Given the quadratic equation (x - 3)² + 14 = 38

We have to solve it by square root.

Now, (x - 3)² + 14 = 38

⇒ (x - 3)² = 38 - 14 = 24

⇒ (x - 3)² = (2√6)²

Now, square rooting both sides we get,

(x - 3) = ± 2√6

⇒ x = 3 ± 2√6 (Answer)

11. Given the quadratic equation x² - 8x + 10 = 0

We have to solve it by completing the square.

Now, x² - 8x + 10 = 0

⇒ x² - 2(4)(x) + 4² = 4² - 10

⇒ (x - 4)² = (√6)²

Now, square rooting both sides we get,

x - 4 = ± √6

⇒ x = 4 ± √6 (Answer)

12. Given the quadratic equation 5x² + 7x - 3 = 0

We have to solve it by quadratic formula.

Hence,

x = \frac{- 7 + \sqrt{7^{2} - 4 (5)(- 3)}}{2(5)} and x = \frac{- 7 - \sqrt{7^{2} - 4 (5)(- 3)}}{2(5)}

⇒ x = \frac{- 7 + \sqrt{109}}{10} and x = \frac{- 7 - \sqrt{109}}{10} (Answer)

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 72. What are the smallest of these numbers?
spayn [35]

Answer: 23,24,25


Step-by-step explanation:

Obviously the numbers are about 72÷3 = 24 so see if 23,24,25 works. It does. No need to solve

(i-1) + (i) + (i+i) = 72, 3i=72, i=24.

Which is the best reason why 1 3/10 + 2 5/10 is not equal to 5?
Gelneren [198K]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Let's try to add these two mixed numbers together. We have 1\frac{3}{10} and 2\frac{5}{10}.

First, add the nonfractional parts together:

1 + 2 = 3

Now add the fractional parts. Because 3/10 and 5/10 already have a common denominator (10), we can simply add the numerators together:

\frac{3}{10} +\frac{5}{10} =\frac{3+5}{10} =\frac{8}{10}

Add 8/10 to our whole number 3:

3 + 8/10 = 3\frac{8}{10} =3\frac{4}{5}

Clearly, 3\frac{4}{5} ≠ 5, which is why 1 3/10 + 2 5/10 ≠ 5.

Hope this helps!
