Area of rectangles = width * length.
So x*12 = 12x = area of first rectangle
So 16*(x-2) = 16x -32 = area of second rectangle

The question states to make them equal, so:
first rectangle = second rectangle
12x = 16x -32
Solve for x
-4x = -32
4x = 32
x = 8

Please help, the word cut off is slope: 3

Sidana [21]

Answer:

1. y=3x-2

2. y=-1/4x+5

These equations are in slope-intercept form (y=mx+b). IN this equation m represents the slope and b represents the y intercept. Therefore, y=3x-2 and y=-1/4x+5 are correct

On babylonian tablet ybc 4652, a problem is given that translates to this equation: x x plus startfraction x over 7 endfraction

seraphim [82]

The correct option is (A). The solution of the equation is x=48.125.

Given an equation $x+\frac{x}{7}+\frac{1}{11}\left(x+\frac{x}{7}\right)=60$ .

A statement that uses the equal sign to show that two expressions have the same value is called an equation. The equation is represented as ax+by=c.

Firstly, we will apply the distributive property to the given equation a×(b+c)=ab+ac, we get

$x+\frac{x}{7}+\frac{x}{11}+\frac{x}{77}=60$

Now, we will simplify the right-hand side equation by taking LCM, we get

$\begin{aligned}\frac{77x+11x+7x+x}{77}&=60\\ \frac{96x}{77}&=60\end$

Further, we will multiply both sides with 77, we get

77×(96x/77)=77×60

96x=4620

Then, we will divide both sides with 96, we get

96x/96=4620/96

x=48.125

Hence, the solution of the given equation $x+\frac{x}{7}+\frac{x}{11}+\frac{x}{77}=60$ is x=48.125.
