A rug maker is using a pattern that is a rectangle with a length of 96 inches and a width of 60 inches. The rug maker wants to increase each dimension by a different amount. Let l and w be the increases in the length and width. Write and simplify an expression for the perimeter of the new pattern.
p=2(96+l)+2(60+w)
This is the equation. p is for perimeter. (96+l) represents the original length plus the change in length. The 2 before (96+l) represents that there is one length on each side of the rectangle.
Same for the width. (60+w) represents the original width plus the change in width. The 2 before (60+w) represents that there is one width on each side of the rectangle.
The simplified equation is p=(192+2l)+(120+2w) (this is your answer)
I hope this helps!
Answer:
The equation i came up with is $55= 7.8x - 47.20
The distance between Car A and car B,When Car A crosses the start line is:
distance =speed car B* time
distance=(15 m/s)(3 s)=45 m
Distance traveled by car A =x, (when the car B is at the same distance from the start line)
time of car A=t
x=10 m/st ⇒ x=10t (1)
Distance traveled by car B=x
time of car B=t-3
x=15(t-3) (2)
With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:
x=10t
x=15(t-3)
We solve this system of equations:
10t=15(t-3)
10t=15t-45
-5t=-45
t=-45 / -5
t=9
t-3=9-3=6
x=10 t=10 (9)=90
Answer: The time would be 9 seconds for Car A and 6 seconds for car B and the distance would be 90 meters.
I’m pretty sure but not so sure I think it is 180
I may be wrong but I think it is "True"
