Answer:
The area of the rectangle is 1222 units²
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2(L + W), where L is its length and W is its width
The formula of the area of a rectangle is A = L × W
∵ The length of a rectangle is 5 less than twice the width
- Assume that the width of the rectangle is x units and multiply
x by 2 and subtract 5 from the product to find its length
∴ W = x
∴ L = 2x - 5
- Use the formula of the perimeter above to find its perimeter
∵ P = 2(2x - 5 + x)
∴ P = 2(3x - 5)
- Multiply the bracket by 2
∴ P = 6x - 10
∵ The perimeter of the rectangle is 146 units
∴ P = 146
- Equate the two expression of P
∴ 6x - 10 = 146
- Add 10 to both sides
∴ 6x = 156
- Divide both sides by 6
∴ x = 26
Substitute the value of x in W and L expressions
∴ W = 26 units
∴ L = 2(26) - 5 = 52 - 5
∴ L = 47 units
Now use the formula of the area to find the area of the rectangle
∵ A = 47 × 26
∴ A = 1222 units²
∴ The area of the rectangle is 1222 units²

Answer:
15 minutes or 1/4 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
3 hours = 60*3=180
180/12=15
Answer:
c) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = g(x)
-x+2 = 5x-4
+x +x
2 = 6x -4
+4 +4
6 = 6x
(divide both sides by 6)
1 = x
