Answer:

  The rectangle is 10 cm by 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance from the center of the rectangle to the longer side. Then the distance to the shorter side is x+4. The short side of the rectangle will have length 2x, and the long side will have length 2(x+4) = 2x+8.

The perimeter is twice the sum of the side lengths, so is ...

  56 = 2(2x +(2x+8)) = 8x +16

  40 = 8x . . . . . . . subtract 16

  40/8 = x = 5 . . . divide by the coefficient of x

The side lengths are 2x=10 and 2x+8 = 18 centimeters.

PLEASE HELP! What is the volume of the pyramid shown below?
mezya [45]
The formula for the volume of a pyramid is,

V=1/3Bh


Since the base of the pyramid is a square, the base area is 11^2

which equals 121 sq. units

So, substitute 121

for B

and 6 for h, in the formula.

V=1/3(121)(6) = 242 cu. units

Or alternatively 1/3(11^2)(6) = 242 cu. units

A(n) = -5 + 6(n - 1)a(n)=−5+6(n−1)a, left parenthesis, n, right parenthesis, equals, minus, 5, plus, 6, left parenthesis, n, min
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The 12th term is 61

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that your a(n) = -5 + 6(n - 1) is correct; the rest is redundant (duplicative, unneeded).

To find the 12th term, substitute 12 for n in the above formula:

a(12) = -5 + 6(12 - 1) = -5 + 6(11) = 66 - 5, or 61

The 12th term is 61

Solve for x in<br> 2 - 3(x + 4) = 8
AysviL [449]

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 - 3(x + 4) = 8

=> 3(x + 4) = 2 - 8 = -6

=> x + 4 = -6/3 = -2

=> x = -2 - 4 = -6
