The square has a side length of 9.
The area of the full square would be 9^2 = 9 x 9 = 81 square cm.
The area of the triangle is 1/2 x 4 x 3 = 6 square cm.
The area of the shape = 81 -6 = 75 square cm.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is the sum of the measures of the 3 sides.
Sum the sides and equate to 75, that is
2x - 9 + 3x + 4 + 2x + 3 = 75, that is
7x - 2 = 75 ( add 2 to both sides )
7x = 77 ( divide both sides by 7 )
x = 11
Thus
AB = 2x - 9 = 2(11) - 9 = 22 - 9 = 13 m
BC = 3x + 4 = 3(11) + 4 = 33 + 4 = 37 m
AC = 2x + 3 = 2(11) + 3 = 22 + 3 = 25 m
Answer: 30.5 and 35.5
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a system of linear equations to find out the answer to this problem. The larger number will be x and the smaller number will be y.
x=y+5
x+y=66
Substitute y+5 in for the bottom equation to get y+5+y=66. Simplify to get 2y+5=66. Subtract 5 from both sides and get 2y=61. Divide by 2 to get y=30.5. This is the smaller number. Add 5 to get the bigger number, which is 35.5
