We know that the perimeter of a rectangle is twice the length, plus twice the width.
P = 2L + 2W
We also know that the perimeter is 156.
P = 156
Finally, we know that the width is 12 less than the length.
W = L - 12.
The next thing that we do is substitute the information that we have into the original equation:
P = 2L + 2W
156 = 2L + 2(L - 12)
From this point we start to solve
156 = 2L + 2L - 24 <---we multiplied the '2' through the parenthesis
156 + 24 = 2L + 2L - 24 + 24
180 = 2L + 2L <--- getting like terms on same sides
180 = 4L <---combining like terms
180/4 = 4L/4 <--- getting like terms on same sides
45 = L <---now we have a value for L
Now we take the known value for L and substitute it in to our equation for W
W = L - 12
W = 45 - 12
W = 33
So now we have Length = 45 and Width = 33.
A = 3,953 in²
You find the area of the whole triangle:
1/2bh = 1/2(63+31)(63+62) = 5875
Then subtract the missing rectangle:
lw = (62)(31) = 1922
5875 - 1922 = 3953 inches
Since you're multiplying inches by inches, it's inches².
Answer:65555590
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
One month of gameplay costs $15
Step-by-step explanation:
Angie: 20 + 3x
Kenny: 20 + 2x
(20 + 3x) + (20 + 2x) = 115 --- add their costs together
(20 + 20) + (3x + 2x) = 115 --- collect like terms
40 + 5x = 115 --- simplify
5x = 75 --- subtract 40 from both sides
x = 15 --- divide both sides by 5
Answer:1/16 for each of us
Step-by-step explanation:
Since only 1/4 is left and you and the teachers are splitting it up,you’d get 1/16 each because the half of 1/4 (1/8) was split into 2 (1/16)
