The first number would be 6 and the second would be 24
x+4x=30, in which x=6
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
PartA
P = 4a
Part B
60 = P fence + 2a
60 = 6a
Part C
40
Step-by-step explanation:
We are building a fence so we are finding perimeter.
Adding the 3 sides
P = a+b+a
P = 2a+b
It is twice as long as it is wide
b= 2a
Replace in the equation for perimeter
P = 2a+(2a)
P = 4a
Part B
We know the perimeter is 60 for the entire backyard
The perimeter of the backyard is the fence plus the longer side
60 = P fence + b
Replacing b
60 = P fence + 2a
We know the equation for the perimeter of the fence is
60 = 4a + 2a
Combing like terms
60 = 6a
Part C
Solve for a and b
60 = 6a
Divide each side by 6
60/6 = 6a/6
10 =a
P fence = 4a
P = 4(10) = 40
Answer:
6 and 4
Step-by-step explanation:
6 x 4 = 24
8 x 3 = 24
6+6+4+4 = 20
Answer:
x = -2
y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x + 3y = 19
x = 3y - 11
-5x + 3y = 19
-5(3y - 11) + 3y = 19
-15y + 55 + 3y = 19
-15y + 3y + 55 = 19
-12y + 55 = 19
-12y = 19 - 55
-12y = -36
y = -36/-12
<u>y = 3</u>
x = 3y - 11
x = 3(3) - 11
x = 9 - 11
<u>x = -2</u>
