Answer:
6x -7 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c represent the length of the third side. The perimeter is the sum of the three side lengths.
P = a + b + c
(17x -5) = (3x +5) +(8x -3) +c
17x -5 = 11x +2 + c . . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms
6x -7 = c . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 11x+2
The third side is 6x -7 units.
Answer:
The width is 50 yards and the length is 141 yards.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's call: L the length of the field and W the width of the field.
From the sentence, the perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 382 yards we can formulate the following equation:
2L + 2W = 382
Because the perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of two times the length with two times the width.
Then, from the sentence, the length of the field is 9 yards less than triple the width, we can formulate the following equation:
L = 3W - 9
So, replacing this last equation on the first one and solving for W, we get:
2L + 2W = 382
2(3W - 9) + 2W = 382
6W -18 +2W = 382
8W - 18 = 382
8W = 382 + 18
8W = 400
W = 400/8
W = 50
Replacing W by 50 on the following equation, we get:
L = 3W - 9
L = 3(50) - 9
L = 141
So, the width of the rectangular field is 50 yards and the length is 141 yards.
Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
ok negative times negative = positive
and factors of 24 are
1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24
4 x 6 are the two consecutive EVEN numbers
so turn it to negative
-4 x -6 = 24
The largest is -4

Answer:
14 dimes and 4 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
x= number of dimes
y=number of quarters
x-10=y
0.10x+0.25y=2.40
substitute for y
0.10x+0.25(x-10)=2.40
0.35x-2.50=2.40
0.35x=4.90
x=14
y=4
