The perimeter of a rectangle is 40 cm. The length is 14 cm. Let x = width of the rectangle. Ravi says he can find the width usin

g the equation 2(x + 14) = 40. Fran says she can find the width using the equation 2x + 28 = 40. Answer the questions to solve the equations and to compare the steps and solutions. 1. Which of these is the most helpful first step for solving Ravi's equation, 2(x + 14) = 40? Circle the best answer. Add 14 to both sides Subtract 14 from both sides Divide both sides by 2 Multiply both sides by 2

Answer:

Divide both sides by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the equation

2(x + 14) = 40

We divide both sides by 2

2(x + 14) = 40/2

x + 14 = 20

x = 20 - 14

x = 6

Therefore, the most helpful first step for solving Ravi's equation is: Divide both sides by 2

Let's solve for x ~

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:4x - 16 = 64

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:4(x - 4) = 64

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:(x - 4) = 64 \div 4

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:x - 4 = 16

\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \:x  = 16 + 4

Determine the value of w and x in the figure below. (Thanks for the help I really appreciate it!)​
storchak [24]
Triangle HAM looks like an isosceles triangle, and we know that in an isosceles triangle 2 of the angles are the same.

so :
180 - 106 = 74 ( sum of the other 2 angles )
74/2 = 37 ( sum of angle HMA / HAM )

angles on a straight line add up to 180.
180-37=143 ( angle x )

since triangle YMH is also an isosceles,
180-37=143
143/2=71.5 ( angle w )

The weights (to the nearest pound) of some boxes to be shipped are found to be:. Weight 65 68 69 70 71 72 90 95 frequency 1 2 5
Lena [83]
So the mean is 72.97

We need to subtract the mean from each value and square it.
(65-72.97)^2= 63.5209
(68-72.97)^2=24.7009
(69-72.97)^2=15.7609
(70-72.97)^2=8.8209
(71-72.97)^2= 3.8809
(72-72.97)^2=0.9409
(90-72.97)^2=290.0209
(95-72.97)^2=485.3209

Now we add up the new values ( also consider their frequency) and find their mean.
Add the values
63.5209+(2 •24.7009=49.4018)+(5•15.7609=78.8045)+(8•8.8209=70.5672)+(7•3.8809=27.1663)+(3•0.9409=2.8227)+(2•290.0209=580.0418)+(2•485.3209=970.6418)= 1,842.967
Divide by total numburs to find the mean
1,842.967/ 30=61.43223333

The standar deviation is the square root of the mean so is
Square root of 61.43223333=7.837871735
Round to the nearest tenth
Standard Deviation is 7.8
