Answer:
DE = 86
EF = 84
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume that point E lies on segment DF, so that ...
DE + EF = DF
(3x +20) +(2x +40) = 170
5x = 110 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, subtract 60
x = 22 . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5
DE = 3×22 +20 = 66 +20 = 86
EF = 2×22 +40 = 44 +40 = 84
Answer:
15 feet, 7.5 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 6.5 + 2.5 + 6
= 15 feet
Area = ½ × 2.5 × 6
= 7.5 feet²
4x=20
4/4x=20/4
x=5
