Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P = perimeter = 114

P =2 * length +2* width

P = 2(2x - 3) + 2(x)

114 = 4x-6 + 2x

114 = 6x -6

19 = x -1

20 = x

check it

2( 2x -3)+2x = ?

4x -6 +2x=?

6x -6 = ?

6(20)-6 =?

120-6 = 114

yep this is correct

Find the values of a and b such that<br> x^2 + 3x + 4 = (x + a)^2+ b

sesenic [268]

Answer:

$x {}^{2} + 3x + 4 = (x + a) {}^{2} + b \\ x {}^{2} + 3x + 4 = x {}^{2} + 2ax + a {}^{2} + b \\ = x {}^{2} + a {}^{2} + 2ax + b \\ 2a = 3 \\ b = 4 \\ a = \frac{3}{2} \\ b = 4$

Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Pears: 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Constant:

3x + 5x + 2x = 150

10x = 150

x = 15

Multiply ratio with constant from above:

oranges : apples

3 * 15 : 5 * 15

45 : 75 ==> 45 oranges: 75 apples

pears : apples

2 * 15 : 5 * 15

30 : 75 ==> 30 pears: 75 apples

Check:

45 oranges + 75 apples + 30 pears = 150 fruits
