Answer:

The width of the rectangle is 5 meters, while the length of the rectangle is 12 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its lenght and its width, and the perimeter is 34 meters and its lenght is 2 meters more than twice its width, to determine the length and width of the rectangle the following calculation must be done:

(2X + 2 + X) x 2 = 34

(3X + 2) x 2 = 34

6X + 4 = 34

6X = 34 - 4

X = 30/6

X = 5

(2x5 + 2 + 5) x 2 = 34

(10 + 2 + 5) x 2 = 34

17 x 2 = 34

34 = 34

Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 5 meters, while the length of the rectangle is 12 meters.

Answer:

x = 5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram. diagonals bisect each other.

This means $ \overline{CE} = \overline{BE} $.

$ \implies 15 - x = 2x $

$ \implies 15 = 3x$

$ \implies x = 5 $.

Therefore, the length of x = 5 units.

Ann spent $7.74 on oranges. If each orange costs $0.36 per pound, how many pounds of oranges did Ann buy?
solmaris [256]
Set variables for the quantities we want to find. Let x = number of applesLet y = number of oranges  Next, we use these variables to write equations that describes the whole story. Since the total price is $7.75 and each type of fruit has their own price, we can say 0.40x + 0.35y = 7.55  The other equation will represent the total number of fruits bought all together, as Mark mentioned.  Once you have those equations, you solve the system using substitution and elimination methods to solve for the variables x and y.

The center of a circle is the point (3, 2). if the point (6, −2) lies on this circle, find the standard equation for the circle.
garri49 [273]
Given 
centre of circle O(3,2)=O(x0,y0)
point on circle P(6,-2)

Standard equation of circle:
(x-x0)^2+(y-y0)^2=r^2

r=radius of circle
= (distance OP)
= sqrt((6-3)^2+(-2-2)^2)
=sqrt(3^2+(-4)^2)
=sqrt(25)

=> 
r^2=(sqrt(25))^2=25

Equation of circle
(x-x0)^2+(y-y0)^2=r^2
(x-3)^2+(y-2)^2=25   ............... standard equation of circle
