Answer:
- square: 12 ft sides
- octagon: 6 ft sides
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be worked in your head.
If the perimeters of the square and regular octagon are the same, the side length of the 4-sided square must be the same as the length of 2 sides of the 8-sided octagon. Since the side of the square is 6 ft more than the side of the octagon, each side of the octagon must be 6 ft, and each side of the square must be 12 ft.
__
We can let s represent the side length of the octagon. Then we have ...
8s = perimeter of octagon
4(s +6) = perimeter of square
These are equal, so ...
4(s +6) = 8s
s +6 = 2s . . . . . . divide by 4
6 = s . . . . . . . . . . subtract s
The octagon has 6-ft sides; the square has 12-ft sides.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y varies inversely as x then the equation relating them is
y =
← k is the constant of variation
To find k use the condition that x = 9 when y = 15
15 =
( multiply both sides by 9 )
k = 135
y =
← equation of variation
Answer:
D)
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to subtract 5 from both sides

Now, square both sides

x - 6 = 49
Now, add 6 to both sides
x - 6 +6 = 49 + 6
x = 55
