PT=y,TR=x+3,QT=2y,TS=3x-1 I'm confused and u really need help. My teacher isn't the greatest and wasn't much help.

Answer:

y=10, x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other, PT should be equal to TR and QT should be equal to TS. So, y=x+3 and 2y=3x-1. Multiplying the first equation by 3 gives you 3y=3x+9. Using elimination to subtract these two equations gives you y=10. And since y=x+3, substitute y=10 there. 10=x+3, x=7.

The formula for the volume V of a rectangular prism is V = ℓwh, where ℓ represents the length, w represents the width, and h rep

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer: $w=\dfrac{V}{lh}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The formula for the volume V of a rectangular prism is V = ℓwh, where ℓ represents the length, w represents the width, and h represents the height.

We rearrange this formula by dividing ℓh both sides of the formula to get the new formula for the width of the rectangular prism, we get'

$w=\dfrac{V}{lh}$

Hence, the new formula for the width of the rectangular prism. :

$w=\dfrac{V}{lh}$

The perimeter of a rectangle is 56 inches. The length is 4 more than twice the width. Write and solve a system to determine the

Marianna [84]

Width: x
length: x + 4
Equation: 2(x + x + 4) = 56
2(2x + 4) = 56
4x + 8 = 56
4x = 48, x = 12
Width = 12, 12 + 4 = length
Solution: the length is 16 inch
