Answer:
DE = 80.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the 2 lines are congruent:
5x = 3x + 32
2x = 32
x = 16
So DE = 3(16) + 32
= 48 + 32
= 80.
To find the perimeter, you would add all the sides. Because we know the perimeter, we can represent this as an equation that needs solved.
362 = x + (2x) + (3x + 2), combine the like terms
362 = 6x + 2, subtract 2 from both sides
-2 -2
<u>360</u> = <u>6x</u>, divide both sides by 6
6 6
x = 60 feet
side 1 = 60 feet
side 2 = 120 feet
side 3 = 182 feet
check your work: 60 + 120 + 182 = 362 feet
Answer:
r = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
3(5 + 4r) = -18r
15 +12r = -18r by distributive property
15 = -12r - 18r
15 = -30r
r = - 1/2r
