l = 5 \\ w = 8

5 + 5 + 8 + 8 = 26 and since 5 x 2 - 2 = 8 it matches with the problem

Let’s say the length is x. That would mean that the width is 2x-2.

using this we would have this equation:
2x+ 2(2x-2) = 26

distribute

2x+ 4x-4= 26

add like terms

6x-4=30

add 4 to both sides

6x=30

divide

x= 5

since x is our length, the length is 5

now for the width, use the 2x-2 equation and plug in x. you should get 8

l= 5
w=8

i hope this helps!!

Solve for the value of z: 90/15 = 6/z
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

90/15 = 6/z

Cross Multiply

15 * 6 = 90 * z

90 = 90z

Divide both sides of the equation by 90

z = 1

Hope this was useful to you!

How do I find the area of this shape
vazorg [7]
There's two ways, you can either multiply 11 and 7 to get 77 and then divide by 2, OR, you can divide 11 by 2 and get 5.5 and multiply that by 7, hope this makes sense, if you don't understand just comment and I'll explain it more :)

Which congruence statements are true? Choose all answers that are correct?<br><br> A: B: C: D:
tester [92]

Answer:

Correct choices are A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Inscribed angles property: The inscribed angles subtended by the same arc are equal.

1. Angles EFH and EGH are both inscribed angles subtended by the arc EH. Therefore, these angles are congruent (option A is true).

2. Angles GHF and GEF are both inscribed angles subtended by the arc GF. Therefore, these angles are congruent (option C is true).

3. Angles EGH and FHG are interior angles of the triangle KGH and can be congruent (if triangle is isosceles) or can be not congruent (in general). Thus, option B is false.

4. Angles EFH and FHG in general are not congruent. They can be congruent only when arcs EH and FG have the same measure. In general, option D is false.

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

12 ≠ 14

Step-by-step explanation:

(4+8)=2+(6x2)

12 = 2 + 12

12 ≠ 14.

So the equation is false.
