Step-by-step explanation:
For example, 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent fractions. If you simplify 2/4 by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2, you'll get 1/2, the same as the other one. Remember, our number line is a line with evenly spaced tick marks that show us our numbers.
The little lines on each side of the rhombus mean that all the sides are the same length.
We can set line LM and MN equal to solve for X, then we can solve the length of a side.
3x-3 = x+7
Add 3 to each side:
3x = x +10
Subtract x from each side:
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 10/2
x = 5
Now we have the value for x, replace x in one of the side formulas:
x +7 = 5+7 = 12
Each side = 12 units.
The perimeter would be 12 + 12 + 12 + 12 = 48 units.
Answer:
18x+21
Step-by-step explanation:
First multiply each equation by 2 since there is 2 sides for both the length and width.
2(2x+3) 2(7x+9)
4x+3 14x+18
Then combine like terms
4x+14x 3+18
18x 21
