2.5 / 18 = 6.4 / x
cross multiply
(2.5)(x) = (18)(6.4)
2.5x = 115.2
x = 115.2 / 2.5
x = 46.08 inches

Write the expression for the perimeter of the rectangle
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

perimeter = 2(x + 5)

this is 2x + 10

x = 55 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

this question is a bit weird because they didn't put the units for 5, so I'm assuming it's in inches...

the perimeter of a rectangle will have two of each, so we can put the 2 outside the bracket since it applies to everything. We have x and we have 5 so put those in the bracket with a plus sign because you add when you're calculating the perimeter.

5 + 5 = 10

120 - 10 = 110 inches (this is 2x)

110 ÷ 2 = 55 inches

Find the values of x and y if 5 ˣ⁻³ x 3²ʸ⁻⁸ =225
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

x = 5, y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

{5}^{x - 3}  \times  {3}^{2y - 8}  = 225 \\ {5}^{x - 3}  \times  {3}^{2y - 8}  = 25 \times 9 \\  {5}^{x - 3}  \times  {3}^{2y - 8}  =  {5}^{2} \times  {3}^{2}  \\ equating \: like \: power \: terms \: from \: both \:\\ sides \\ {5}^{x - 3}  =  {5}^{2} \\ x - 3 = 2 (Bases\: are\: equal, \: so\: exponents \: \\will\: also\: be\: equal) \\ x = 3 + 2 \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ x = 5}} \\  \\ {3}^{2y - 8}  = {3}^{2} \\ 2y - 8 = 2(Bases\: are\: equal, \: so\: exponents \: \\will\: also\: be\: equal)  \\ 2y = 2 + 8 \\ 2y = 10 \\ y =  \frac{10}{2}  \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{y = 5}}
