Hi there!

We can find the perimeter of a rectangle by using the following formula:

perimeter = 2 × width + 2 × length

In the question, we are given the following data: the length of the rectangle is 12 in and the perimeter is 56. Let's substitute this into our formula!

56 = 2 × width + 2 × 12
Multiply first.

56 = 2 × width + 24
Now subtract 24 from both sides.

32 = 2 × width
And finally, to find the width of the rectangle, divide both sides of the equation by 2.

16 = width
(we can eventually switch sides in the equation).

width = 16
~ Hope this helps you!

Find the midpoint of the segment with the given endpoints. <br> ​4 and 11<br> ​
brilliants [131]

Hey there!!

How do we find the midpoint?

We take the average , the average is =

Sum of the observations / total number of observations

The end points are given as 4 and 11

Sum = 11 + 4

Number of observations = 2

= 15 / 2

= 7.5 is the midpoint

Drag the tiles to the correct boxes to complete the pairs.
navik [9.2K]

A. 9

B. 24

C. 6

D. 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratios are;

A. 2 : 3 = 6 : x

Product of mean = Product of extreme

6*3=2*x\\18=2x\\2x=18

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{18}{2}\\x=9

B. 4 : 7 = x : 42

Product of mean = Product of extreme

7x=168

Dividing both sides by 7

\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{168}{7}\\x=24

C. 2x : 48 = 3 : 12

Product of extreme = Product of mean

2x*12=48*3\\24x=144

Dividing both sides by 24

\frac{24x}{24}=\frac{144}{24}\\x=6

D. 12 : 15 = x : 20

Product of mean = Product of extreme

15*x=12*20\\15x=240

Dividing both sides by 15

\frac{15x}{15}=\frac{240}{15}\\x=16
