My late response (haha): First, you would write a proportion.
Step 1: 2496 over 48 = x over 31
(x represents the area of the land that is not fenced).
Step 2: Cross multiply
2496 times 31 and x times 48
Step 3: Calculate
77376 = 48x
Step 4: Divide both sides by 48
77376/48 = 1612
48x/48 = x
Step 5: Write it as a sentence
The area of the land that is not fenced is 1612 squared meters.
Hope that helped! Good luck! :]
4, 8, and 3 must all go into the number. find the LCM(4,8) is 8. the LCM(8,3) is 24. that's your answer, 24
Answer:
<h2>
RS = 47</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
RV=VU and SW=WT ⇒ ![VW=\dfrac{RS+UT}{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=VW%3D%5Cdfrac%7BRS%2BUT%7D%7B2%7D)
So:
![3x+5=\dfrac{2x+15+6x-37}{2}\\\\3x+5=\dfrac{8x-22}{2}\\\\3x+5=4x-11\\^{\qquad-5\qquad-5}\\3x=4x-16\\^{-4x\qquad-4x}\\-x=-16\\^{\div(-1)\quad\div(-1)}\\x=16\\\\RS=2x+15=2\cdot16+15=32+15=47](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3x%2B5%3D%5Cdfrac%7B2x%2B15%2B6x-37%7D%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C3x%2B5%3D%5Cdfrac%7B8x-22%7D%7B2%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C3x%2B5%3D4x-11%5C%5C%5E%7B%5Cqquad-5%5Cqquad-5%7D%5C%5C3x%3D4x-16%5C%5C%5E%7B-4x%5Cqquad-4x%7D%5C%5C-x%3D-16%5C%5C%5E%7B%5Cdiv%28-1%29%5Cquad%5Cdiv%28-1%29%7D%5C%5Cx%3D16%5C%5C%5C%5CRS%3D2x%2B15%3D2%5Ccdot16%2B15%3D32%2B15%3D47)
