The simple way of calculating a perimeter is to add all of the sides.
For a rectangle this would equal 2 x length + 2 x width
P = 2(6x + 3) + 2(-2x - 5)
= 12x + 6 - 4x - 10
= 8x - 4
At a higher level both the length and width must be greater than zero (= zero is a trivial rectangle)
6x + 3 > 0
6x > -3
x > -0.5
-2x - 5 > 0
2x + 5 < 0 (multiplying by -1 reverses the inequality)
2x < -5
x < -2.5
This rectangle cannot exist as x cannot be < -2.5 and > -0.5 at the same time!
Answer:
x = -11/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
-2 = 5 / (2x+3)
Multiplying both sides by (2x + 3)
-2(2x + 3) = 5
"-" sign will alter the inner signs
-4x -6 = 5
Adding 6 on both sides:
-4x -6 +6 = 5 + 6
-4x = 11
Dividing both sides by -4
-4x/-4 = 11/-4
x = -11/4
i hope it will help you!
5x - 3y = -11 (×2)
2x - 6y = -14 (x5)
10x - 6y = -22
10x - 30y = -70
---------------------- -
24y = 48
y = 2
This is an linear equation, so
y=mx + b
m= money w=weeks
m= -20w +200
Your teacher just wants you to replace pi any equations with 22/7 because it is close to pi
