The paper is 7 cm by (x + 8) cm.

A photo is 5 cm by (x + 6) cm, and is printed in the middle of the paper.

The area of the border/space around the photo is 50 cm².


To find the area of the border around the photo, you find the area of the paper and subtract it by the area of the photo.


The area of the paper:

A = 7 · (x + 8)


The area of the photo:

A = 5 · (x + 6)


Your equation to find the area of the border around the photo is:

(7 · (x + 8)) - (5 · (x + 6)) = A

[area of paper - area of photo = area of border]


Since you know the area of the border, you can plug it in:

(7 · (x + 8)) - (5 · (x + 6)) = 50


Multiply the 7 into (x + 8), and multiply the 5 into (x + 6)

(7x + 56) - (5x + 30) = 50


Distribute/multiply the - to (5x + 30)

7x + 56 - 5x - 30 = 50


Combine like terms

2x + 26 = 50


Subtract 26 on both sides

2x = 24


Divide 2 on both sides


x = 12

Answer: X = kuv/ (u+v)

that means that x(u+v)/(uv) = k, a constant. so you want x such that,

x(3+3)/(3*3) = 3(3+1)/(3*1)

x=6

What is the relationship between 5.34×1055.34×105 and 5.34×10−25.34×10−2 ? Select from the drop-down menus to correctly complete
Anton [14]
The relationship between 5.34×105 and 5.34×10−2 would be that the former number is 10000000 times larger than the latter value. We can obtain this by dividing 5.34×105 and 5.34×10−2 where the quotient would be 10000000. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

A hiker cycles 9 miles in 2/3 of an hour. Make a chart and fill it in to show how far he will bike if he maintains the same pace
Arada [10]

Answer:

2 hours: 27 miles, 3 hours: 40.5 miles, 3.5 hours: 47.25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) If a hiker hikes 9 miles in 2/3 of an hour, he will hike 4.5 (Half of 2/3 is 1/3 and half of 9 is 4.5) miles in 1/3 of an hour and 13.5 miles per hour. (1/3 times 3 gives us a whole and 4.5 times 3 is 13.5)

2.) 2 hours: 13.5 * 2 = 27 miles

3.) 3 hours: 13.5 * 3 = 40.5 miles

4.) 3.5 hours: 13.5 * 3.5 = 47.25 miles
