let the length of each shorter side be x
length of longer side= x+14
2(x+14) + 2x = 48
2x + 28 + 2x = 48
4x + 28 = 48
4x = 48-28
4x = 20
x = 5
shorter side = 5cm
Answer:
-20 units??
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
X>5/4
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the solution to x 4 – 12x 2 + 10 > 0?
Hello!
If Nia is three years older than half of Jordan's age, we must divide Jordan's age by 2 (to find half of his age).
Jordan is eight years old:
8 divided by 2 equals 4
4 years old is half of Jordan's age. Now, to find Nia's age, we must add 3 to half of Jordan's age (4).
4+3= 7
Nia is 7 years old.
I hope this helps answer your question! Have a great day!
