Answer: b=1/36

Step-by-step explanation:

15 - 1/2b = -3

subtract 15 from both sides

-1/2b = -18

multiply both sides by 2b

-1 = -18(2b)

-1 = -36b

divide both sides by -36

-1/-36 = b

b = 1/36

The width of a rectangle is the sum of the length and 1. The area of the rectangle is 20 units. What is the width, in units, of
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

W=5

Step-by-step explanation:

W=Width=Length + 1

L = Length

Area = Length * Width = 20

Area = L * W = L * (L+1) = 20

Distribute the L:   L^2 + L = 20

Subtract 20 from both sides: L^2 + L -20 = 20-20

Simplify:  L^2+L-20=0

Factor (L-4)(L+5)=0

Solve using the zero property: L-4=0, L=4      L+5=0, L=-5

The two options for length are 4 and -5. Only 4 will work for L since it cannot be negative.   Width is Length + 1 = 5

How can you determine congurence and similarity
leonid [27]
Here you go :) AA (Angle-Angle) If two pairs of corresponding angles in a pair of triangles are congruent, then the triangles are similar. We know this because if two angle pairs are the same, then the third pair must also be equal. When the three angle pairs are all equal, the three pairs of sides must also be in proportion.

It’s MATH who knows how to do this i’m down bad
AysviL [449]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. 7x + 2 = 5x + 22 (alternate interior angles are congruent)

Collect like terms

7x - 5x = -2 + 22

2x = 20

2x/2 = 20/2

x = 10

2. 13x - 6 = 10x + 24 (alternate interior angles are congruent)

Collect like terms

13x - 10x = 6 + 24

3x = 30

3x/3 = 30/3

x = 10

3. (12x + 26)° + 46° = 180° (same side interior angles are supplementary)

12x + 26 + 46 = 180

12x + 72 = 180

12x + 72 - 72 = 180 - 72

12x = 108

12x/12 = 108/12

x = 9

4. (5x + 5)° + 135° = 180° (same side interior angles are supplementary)

5x + 5 + 135 = 180

5x + 140 = 180

5x + 140 - 140 = 180 - 140

5x = 40

5x/5 = 40/5

x = 8

We subsituete

9:6=6:4
treat as fraction
9/6=6/4

9/6=3/3 times 3/2
6/4=2/2 times 3/2

3/2=3/2
