Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4x - 5(x + 3) Remove the brackets. Watch the - sign and -5*3
4x - 5x - 15 Combine the xs
-x - 15
Answer:
The answer is 12
If you look at the set of data 12 is shown the most or there more then once when the others aren't
Assume that the length of the rectangle is "l" and that the width is "w".
We are given that:
(1) The length is one more than twice the base. This means that:
l = 2w + 1 .......> equation I
(2) The perimeter is 92 cm. This means that:
92 = 2(l+w) ...........> equation II
Substitute with equation I in equation II to get the width as follows:
92 = 2(l+w)
92 = 2(2w+1+w)
92/2 = 3w + 1
46 = 3w + 1
3w = 46-1 = 45
w = 45/3
w = 15
Substitute with w in equation I to get the length as follows:
l = 2w + 1
l = 2(15) + 1
l = 30 + 1 = 31
Based on the above calculations:
length of base = 31 cm
width of base = 15 cm
