Answer:

The length of the rectangle is 25 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the length of rectangle

y ----> the width of rectangle

we know that

The perimeter of rectangle is

P=2(x+y)

we have

P=68\ km

so

68=2(x+y)

simplify

34=(x+y)---- > equation A

x=3y-2 ---> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

34=(3y-2)+y

34=4y-2

4y=34+2

4y=36

y=9\ km

Find the value of x

x=3(9)-2=25\ km

therefore

The length of the rectangle is 25 km

A circle is the collection of points in a plane that are the same distance from a given point in the plane.
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

True - The above statement is true

A circle is the collection of points in a plane that are the same distance from a given point in the plane.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <em><u>A circle is the set of points in a plane that are a given distance from a given point in the plane. The given point is the center of the circle, and the given distance is the radius.</u></em>
  • In other words; A circle is the set of points in a plane that are equidistant from a given center point.  Therefore; the locus of points at a fixed distance, d, from the point, P is a circle with the given point P as its center and d as its radius.

Hey, how do I apply the digital root method to division? Thanks.
REY [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

The digital root of a number is the single digit that you get by adding all of the digits of the original number together. If the result of that is multiple digits, you add those digits together, repeating the process until you get a single digit. That digit is the digital root of the original number.

example given

257520643

2+5+7+5+2+0+6+4+3

7+12+2+10+3

7+1+2+2+13

8+4+1+3

8+4+4

12+4

1+6=7

4k+mn=n-3; solve for n
solong [7]
Since we are solving for n you have to isolate the n. Therefore, you want all the variables with an n in it on one side and all the variables without an n on the other side:) :
4k+3= -mn+n (There were a change in signs because for example you moved the -3 to the other side, therefore it can only be a negative on one side so now you have to change the sign to a positive:) hope you got that)
That would've been your answer because you cannot do anything else...Hope this helped :)
