I think 42
would be the best answer to your question in my opininon.
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a Rect.= 2(l+b)
b= x
l= 2x
Equation
152= 2(2x+x)
152= 2(3x)
152= 6x
x= 25.33
2x= 50.66
Therefore length is 50.66m and breadth is 25.33m
35 brownies were brought to class by Lauren
Answer:
2x - 0.4x ;
8x/5 ;
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of miles = x
Arlene:
Double number of miles = 2 * x = 2x
Subtract 20% of the result :
2x - 20% of 2x ;
2x - 0.4x
Raul:
Divides Number of miles by 5 ; x / 5
Multiplies result by 8 ;
8 * (x/5) = 8x /5
To know if expressions are equivalent :
Let x = 10 miles
Using Arlene's expression:
2x - 0.4x
x = 10
2(10) - 0.4(10) = 16
Using Raul's expression :
8x / 5
(8*10) / 5
80/5
= 16
Since they give the same result, we can conclude that the expression are equivalent
