Answer: 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangle:

  • Length = x
  • Width = x - 2

x + x + (x - 2) + (x - 2) = 52

2x + 2(x - 2) = 52

2x + 2x - 4 = 52

4x = 52 + 4

4x = 56

x = 14

alexandr1967 [171]

Question 1: If shes making 4 hats alone and then Quadruples it shes making 16 hats per week if she quadruples it again she will be knitting 64 hats per week.

4x4=16

16x4=64hats

Question 2: There is an error because 5x5x5 = 5³

Question 3: 2⁴ - 8 x 2 / 4 = 12

2⁴ = 16  - 8 x 2 / 4

8x2 = 16

16/4 = 4

16-4 = 12

What is the solution to the system? <br><br> (___,___)
Rina8888 [55]
For the first line we have a slope of (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(2--2)/(1--1)=4/2=2 so we have:

y=2x+b, now solve for b with either of the points, I'll use: (1,2)

2=2(1)+b

b=0 so the first line is:

y=2x

Now the second line:

(1-10)/(4--2)=-9/6=-3/2 so far then we have:

y=-3x/2+b, using point (4,1) we solve for b...

1=-3(4)/2+b

1=-6+b

b=7 so 

y=-3x/2+7 or more neatly...

y=(-3x+14)/2

...

The solution occurs when both the x and y coordinates for each are equal, so we can say y=y, and use our two line equations...

2x=(-3x+14)/2

4x=-3x+14

7x=14

x=2, and using y=2x we see that:

y=2(2)=4, so the solution occurs at the point:

(2,4)

What is the solution to this systems of liner equations y-x=6 y+x=-10
3241004551 [841]
The solution is the point where the two lines intersect (are equal) so y=y and we can say:

6-x=-10-x  upon adding x to both sides:

6=-10

This is never true so there is no solution to this system of equations.  And for this to be true the two lines must be parallel and have different y-intercepts...
