Answer:

Perimeter of the rectangle = 8 x +4

Length of the rectangle = 12 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle as 'x' units.

So, length of the rectangle is 2 more than 3 x.

We can set up expression for length as 3 x+2.

Now, perimeter is sum of all side lengths of the rectangle.

So, perimeter = x+x+3 x+2 +3 x+2

Combine like terms,

Perimeter = 8 x+4

Now, it is given perimeter is 36cm

So,

8 x+4=36

Subtract both sides 4

8 x=32

Divide both sides by 8

x=4

So, width of the rectangle =4

Length =3(4) +2=14

(URGENT!!!! WILL MAKE BRAINLIEST) Write a quadratic equation with -4 and 3/2 as its roots. Write the equation in the form ax² +
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

2X^2+5/2X-3/2=0

Step-by-step explanation:

To identify the equation use the following method

(X-a)(X-b)=0

Put values

a=-4

b=3/2

(X+4)(X-3/2)=0

X^2+4X-3/2X-3/2=0

X^2+(8X-3X)/2-3/2=0

X^2+5/2X-3/2=0
