The answer to your question is: x=10. y=2
Multiply the denominator by 4
It looks like only A and B, but could be trick question?
Answer:
576 Units
Step-by-step explanation:
The way your teacher wants you to do it:
1. We know that multiplying a length by four gives us the perimeter of a square.
1a. Thus, we multiply the given length by four. 4(10x+4)=40x+16
1b. We know the perimeter is 96. So: 40x+16=96
2. Solving for x, we get x=2
3. Plugging our solved x into the given length (10x+4), we see that the length of a side of the square is 10*2+4=24.
4. We know that the area of a square can be found by squaring the side of a square.
4a. 24*24=576.
5. The area is 576 units.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Easier Solution:
1. We know that the perimeter is length*4.
2. We set L to length.
2a. 4L=96
2b. L=24
3. We know that the length square is area.
4. 24*24=576.
Answer:2.8
Step-by-step explanation:add 3.5 to the 10.5 which equals 14 then you divide 5 by 14 to get the y alone and it equals 2.8
