Answer:

The porch is 17 ft by 17 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a square is

P = 4s where s is the side length

P = 4( 3x+2)

P = 12x+8

We know P = 14x-2

14x-2 = 12x+8

Subtract 12x from each side

14x-2 -12x = 12x+8-12x

2x -2 = 8

Add 2 to each side

2x-2 +2 = 8+2

2x= 10

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 10/2

x = 5

The side  is 3x+2

                 3*5+2

                  15+2

                   17

The porch is 17 ft by 17 ft

Maria and victor each play a video game. The ratio of the number of points Maria scores to the number of points victor scores is
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know what a tape diagram is but I can give you the equation and the answer.

Let Victor have x points

Let Maria have y points

y = x + 424

y/x = 5/3                     Cross multiply

3y = 5x                       Divide by 3

y = 5x/3                      I Could have just multiplied by x

y = x + 424

5x/3 = x + 424           Multiply both sides by 3

5x = 3x + 1272           Subtract 3x from both sides.

5x-3x = 1272              Combine the left.

2x = 1272                    Divide by 2

2x/2 = 1272/2

x = 636

Victor Scored 636 points

Maria Scored 636 + 424 = 1060

The point (0,10) is called a ____-intercepta?
RUDIKE [14]

Answer: y-intercept

Explanation: A point is classified as (x, y) and in order for this ordered pair to be a y-intercept, we need to have the x-coordinate be 0.

Since the x-coordinate is 0, this is a y-intercept.
