Area of rectangle= LxW
45cm2 divided by 10cm = 4.5cm
B-C= 4.5cm
Perimeter of rectangle= L+W x2
26/2 =13cm -4.5= 8.5cm

QR = 10cm and the area of that rectangle is 45cmsq so to work out PQ you do 45/10 = 4.5cm
PQ= 4.5cm

As BC = PQ they both equal 4.5cm

and the perimeter of ABCD is 26cm you so 26- (4.5x2) = 17
and 17/2 = 8.5cm

AB is 8.5cm

Solve 5c + 4 = -26

mr_godi [17]

<em>1) 5 c + 4 = - 26
5 c = -26 -4
5 c = -30
c = -30 / 5
c = -6 so correct option is B..

2) 3 x - x +2 = 12
2 x +2 = 12
2x = 12-2
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x= 5 so correct option is D

3 ) 3 ( x + 1 )+ 6 = 33
3x + 3 + 6 = 33
3x + 9 = 33
3x = 33-9
3x = 24
x = 24/3
x = 8 so correct option is B

4) y/-6=9
y=9 x -6
y= - 54 there is no such option i guess question is missing

5)(x + 4) /2 = 7
x +4 = 7 x 2
x + 4 = 14
x = 14-4
x = 10 so correct option is D

6)1/3 ( 2x - 8) = 4
2x/ 3 - 8 /3 = 4
2x - 8 / 3 = 4
2x - 8 = 4 x 3
2x - 8 = 12
2x = 12 + 8
2x = 20
x = 20/2
x = 10 so correct option is C
