If you are using cm then the perimeter-P=5+5+4+4=18cm
The ratio is 12:16, which, when simplified, is 3:4.
For every three girls, there are four boys.
Answer:
12 in
Step-by-step explanation:
she has square pillow, so 12*12=144 sq in
Answer:
Letter c
Step-by-step explanation:
You are distributing the 7 to each term in the parentheses.
7(8x) is 56 x
Here is the tricky part. You can think of it a couple of ways:
7(-4y) = -28y a positive times a negative is a negative.
or 7(4y) = 28 , but then remember that you are subtracting so it will become -28
7(6) = 56
56x - 28y +42
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a = 4x
b = x + 2
c = 3x + 4
Solution
(4x)^2 + (x + 2)^2 = (3x + 4)^3 Remove all the brackets.
16x^2 + x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Collect like terms on the left
17x^2 + 4x + 4 = 9x^2 + 24x + 16 Subtract the terms on the right
8x^2 - 20x - 12 = 0
This factors into
(4x - 12)(2x + 1)
There are 2 answers
4x - 12 = 0
4x = 12
x = 12/4
x = 3
or
2x + 1 = 0
2x = - 1
x = - 1/2
You have to look at x = -1/2 carefully. The problem is that 4x = 4*(-1/2) = - 2 which is not possible in Euclidean Geometry.
So the only answer is x = 3
