Answer:
The dimensions of the rectangle are length = 7cm and width = 6cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve for the dimensions, you will need to set up two equations in order to solve for the missing variable. Given the information that the length is 5 cm less then twice it's width, using 'L' for length and 'w' for width we get the following equation: L = 2w - 5. Perimeter is the sum of all the sides, or in the case of a rectangle P = 2w + 2L. We can then use our expression for 'L' in our perimeter formula: 26 = 2w + 2(2w - 5). First, using the distributive property we get: 26 = 2w + 4w - 10. Next, we combine like terms: 26 = 6w - 10. Then, we use inverse operations to isolate the variable: 26 + 10 = 6w - 10 + 10 to get 36 = 6w, divide both sides by 6 to get w = 6. Lastly, plug in the value of 'w' to 'L': L = 2(6) - 5 or L = 7.
In mathematics, the irrational numbers are all the real numbers which are not rational numbers, the latter being the numbers constructed from ratios of integers.
We can add or subtract integer. We can also subtract like terms.
A linear pair is a pair of angles that form a line. When added, they will equal 180.
< EFG + < GFH = 180
5n + 20 + 3n + 16 = 180
8n + 36 = 180
8n = 180 - 36
8n = 144
n = 144/8
n = 18
< EFG = 5n + 20.....5(18) + 20 = 110 <==
< GFH = 3n + 16.....3(18) + 16 = 70 <==
Answer:
The probability is 1/8
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 2 nectarines in a total of 16 pieces of fruit in a basket, so the probability of random selected piece of fruit being a nectarine is the number of nectarines over the total number of pieces of fruit:
Probability = Number of nectarines / Total pieces = 2 / 16
To find the fraction in the simplest form, we divide the numerator and denominator by 2:
Probability = (2/2) / (16/2) = 1/8
