Answers:
- x = 4
- AB = 36
- BC = 36
- AC = 36
All three sides are 36 units long.
===========================================================
Explanation:
Triangle ABC is equilateral, so all three sides are the same length.
Pick any two of those sides, set them equal to each other, and solve for x
AB = BC
8x+4 = 11x-8
8x-11x = -8-4
-3x = -12
x = -12/(-3)
x = 4
Use this x value to find each side. We should get the same value (if not, then an error occurred in solving for x).
- AB = 8x+4 = 8*4+4 = 32+4 = 36
- BC = 11x-8 = 11*4-8 = 44-8 = 36
- AC = 9x = 9*4 = 36
We get the same value for the three side lengths, so this confirms we have the correct x value.

K(4, -5)
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
336 feet²
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a rectangle that is 30 by 20 feet, that means the area of that rectangle would be 20 × 30 feet squared, which is 600 ft².
If there is a 3 feet sidewalk surrounding it, that means that the end of the sidewalk will extend 3 feet extra around each side of plot. Since there are two ends to one side, that means an extra six feet is added on to each dimension. Therefore, 36 × 26 are the dimensions of the sidewalk+plot. 36 × 26 = 936 ft².
To find the area of the sidewalk itself, we subtract 600 ft² from 936 ft². This gets us with 336 ft².
Hope this helped!
