There are too many solutions to these equations.
I assume that this 'something' has a rectangular shape. If its width is 5m, than the length of two sides is 2 * 5 = 10m. Now if the perimeter is 22 square meters, then the lenght of another two sides is 12 / 2 = 6.
12 because 22 (the perimeter) - 10 (lenght of the 2 sides) = 12 (length of another 2 sides).
Answer:
x=-9/a and a=-9/x
Step-by-step explanation:
(length of tree's shadow)/(height of tree) = (length of person's shadow)/(person's height)
24/x = 8/5
24*5 = x*8
120 = 8x
8x = 120
8x/8 = 120/8
x = 15
The tree is 15 feet tall
Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, add 9 to both sides
3/4x - 9 (+9) = 27 (+9)
3/4x = 36
Next, multiply 4/3 to both sides
(4/3)(3/4)x = 36(4/3)
x = 36(4/3)
Simplify.
x = 12(4)
x = 48
48 is your answer for x.
