<h3>
Answer: 11/20</h3>
=====================================================
Work Shown:
x = unknown horizontal length
1/5 = 0.2
Perimeter = 2*(width + length)
P = 2*(0.2 + x)
P = 0.4 + 2x
Set this equal to the given perimeter of 1 & 1/2 = 1.5 and solve for x
0.4 + 2x = 1.5
2x = 1.5-0.4
2x = 1.1
x = (1.1)/2
x = 0.55
x = 55/100
x = (5*11)/(5*20)
x = 11/20
The correct answer is (-4, -3)
Simplifyiing
the greatest common factor is 3 so
3x - 9y + 12 = 3(x - 3y + 4)
X + 6.38 = 15.75<span> would be the answer
x=9.37
for the first option, you are not adding 15.75 and x together.
for the second option, it is correct, because in the problem, it is giving the operation, 15.75-6.38=x. when you turn it do inverse operation, you get </span><span>x + 6.38 = 15.75.
for the third option, it doesn't make sense and it's not doing what the problem is asking for.
for the fourth option, you are not multiplying. you are subtracting </span>15.75 by<span> 6.38 to get x.</span>
