Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: 3
Discussion:
The perimeter of a polygon is the sum of the side lengths.
Perimeter of top polygon is (x+2) + 2x + (x + 2) + (4x + 1) = 8x + 5
Perimeter of bottom triangle is 4x + 2x + (3x+2 ) = 9x + 2
The perimeters are the same when
8x + 5 = 9x + 2
Subtract 8x from both sides:
5 = (9x - 8x) + 2 or
5 = x + 2
Subtract 2 from each side to get x = 3:
5 -2 = 3 = x
The perimeter of either figure is 29

<span>Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. For every game, there is 2 team playing. The order is not important because A vs B is same as B vs A
So you just need to makes a combination of 2 that have a result of 21. If there is t number of teams, the number of matches would be:
tC2 = t!/2!(t-2)! = 21
</span>t! / (t-2)! = 21 *2
(t)(t-1)= 42
t^2 -t -42=0
(t-7)(t+6)
t=7 ; t=-6
Excluding the minus result, you got 7 teams.
Answer: 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Goals=30
the ratio is 6 units to 7 units
goals=6 units
goals=30
30=6 uints
divide by 6
5=1 unit
so miss=7 units
5 per unit times 7 units=35
answer is 35 miss
