Answer:

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of both lengths and both widths, which is equal to 54 meters. Let's call Length L and Width W.

The question is saying this: L = 3 meters + 3(W). We have 2 variables, which means we need at least 2 equations to solve. So far we have one, our second equation is from the perimeter.

2 lengths + 2 Widths = 54. Now, it's just a plug and chug.

2(3 + 3W) + 2W = 54.

6 + 6W + 2W = 54

8W = 48

W=6

L = 3 + 3(6) = 21

To double check: 2(21) + 2(6) = 42 + 12 = 54

The Width is 6 meters, and the Length is 21 meters.

Answer:

AAS method can be used to prove that the two triangles are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question for the two triangles one pair of opposite angles are equal. One another pair of angles are equal for the two and one pair of sides are also equal of the two.

Hence, the two given triangles are congruent by AAS rule.

Hence, AAS method can be used to prove that the two triangles are congruent.

Solve the equation. 9x−(3x+9)=2x−25 Select the correct choice below and fill in any answer boxes in your choice. A. The solution
nataly862011 [7]

Answer: Choice A, x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 9x−(3x+9)=2x−25

2. 9x-3x-9=2x-25

3. 6x-9=2x-25

4. 6x-9=2x-25  

   -2x          -2x

5. 4x-9=-25

       +9    +9

6. 4x=-16 (divide both sides by 4)

7. x=-4

Show that the relation R consisting of all pairs(x, y)such that x and y are bit strings of length three or more that agree in th
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

See proof below

Step-by-step explanation:

An equivalence relation R satisfies

  • Reflexivity: for all x on the underlying set in which R is defined, (x,x)∈R, or xRx.
  • Symmetry: For all x,y, if xRy then yRx.
  • Transitivity: For all x,y,z, If xRy and yRz then xRz.

Let's check these properties: Let x,y,z be bit strings of length three or more

The first 3 bits of x are, of course, the same 3 bits of x, hence xRx.

If xRy, then then the 1st, 2nd and 3rd bits of x are the 1st, 2nd and 3rd bits of y respectively. Then y agrees with x on its first third bits (by symmetry of equality), hence yRx.

If xRy and yRz, x agrees with y on its first 3 bits and y agrees with z in its first 3 bits. Therefore x agrees with z in its first 3 bits (by transitivity of equality), hence xRz.
