Yep your very smart
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 9
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up equations:
x + y = 15
x - y = 3
Let's rearrange one of these equations to use the substitution method:
x - y = 3
Add y to each side:
x = y + 3
Substitute in for x:
x + y = 15
y + 3 + y = 15
Combine like terms:
( y + y ) + 3 = 15
2y + 3 = 15
Subtract 3 from each side:
2y = 12
Divide each side by 2:
y = 6
Substitute this in to find the other variable:
x + y = 15
x + 6 = 15
Subtract 6 from each side:
x = 9
The diagram shows that all the sides of the rectangle are congruent. Since the perimeter all of the sides added up, all you have to do is divide the perimeter by 4.
Therefore, the perimeter, which is 16x + 24, can be divided by 4 to find the length of one side.
16x + 24/4 = length of one side. So, the length of one side is 4x + 6.
Hope this helped!
