The triangle and square have equal perimeters. What is the perimeter of the triangle?

Mathematics

Answer:

E. 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of the triangle = 4x+4x+(x+7)

Perimeter of square = 4(x+3)

We know that the perimeters are equal so we can form an equation to solve for x:

9x+7 = 4x + 12

Now we can subtract 4x from both sides to move the xs to the left side, and the same with the 7 so we have the variable on one side and the constant on the other:

9x+7-7-4x=12+4x-4x-7

5x = 5

Now we divide both sides by 5 to get:

5x/5 = 5/5

x = 1

Now we can use this value to figure out the perimeter of the triangle:

P = 9x + 7

x=1, substitute into equation:

P = 9(1) + 7

P = 16

Hope this helped!

what is an equation of the line that is parallel to y equals negative 4x - 5 and passes through the point -2, 6
Bond [772]

y = - 4x - 2

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 4x - 5 is in this form

with slope m = - 4

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, 6 ) into the partial equation

6 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 8 = - 2

y = - 4x - 2 ← equation of parallel line
