The formula for the perimeter is P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>, where <em>w</em> is the width and <em>l</em> is the length. It is given that the width = (x+2) and the length = (x+6). Therefore, we can make this equation:
P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>
64 = 2(x+2) + 2(x+6) ⇒ Distributive property
⇒ 64 = 2x + 4 + 2x + 12 ⇒ Combine like terms
⇒ 64 = 4x + 16 ⇒ Subtract 16 from both sides
⇒ 48 = 4x ⇒ Divide both sides by 4
⇒ x = 12
Then, we use x = 12 and substitute it in to find the length and width
<em>Width</em> = (x+2) = (12+2) = 14
<em>Length</em> = (x+6) = (12+6) = 18
The dimensions of the patio is <u>14 by 18</u>
Answer:
b -1
Step-by-step explanation:
it's the line that the curve ends on and is linear on
Find the mean of the first four test scores first.
(Add all numbers in set and divide by how many numbers there are)
81 + 87 + 71 + 89 = 328 / 4 = 82
Then, find the mean with the 85 added as the fifth term.
81 + 87 + 71 + 89 + 85 = 413 / 5 = 82.6
The impact that the 85 had on the mean test score was that the mean/average increased by 0.6.
This correct answer is 10
