Answer:

area = 960cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2 x (length + width) ------(1)

Perimeter = 124cm

Let length be x

Given width is 2cm shorter than length , that width = x -2

    Perimeter = 2 (x + (x -2))\\\\124 =  2(x +x -2)\\\\62 = 2x -2 \\64 = 2x\\x = 32

Length = 32cm

Width = 32 - 2 = 30cm

Area = length x width

  = 32 \times 30 = 960cm^2

Rectangle Perimeter = 2 Length x 2 Width
Perimeter = 124cm
Length = L
Width = L-2
2 Length = 2 L
2 Width = 2 L - (2x2)
=2 L - 4

=124cm - 4cm
= 120cm
=120/4
=30cm
Width= 30cm
Length = 30cm + 2cm
= 32

Perimeter:
=2 x 32cm + 2 x 30cm
=64cm + 60cm
= 124cm

What is the value of x?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box. <br><br> x = ___
lapo4ka [179]
Answer:

x=8

Explanation:

The picture tells us that the triangle is equilateral (this means that each angle is 60°). We can assume this because each side has been marked with the same line.

Because each angle is equal to 60°, this means that:

7x+4=60

Now solve for x:

7x=56
x=8
