Answer: 20x-6 = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of rectangle is represented by 8x - 3.

The width of the rectangle is represented by 2x.

The perimeter is 34 inches.

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (length + width)

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (8x-3+2x)

Perimeter of rectangle = 2 (10x-3)

Perimeter of rectangle = 20x-6

Thus , the required equation that represent the perimeter: 20x-6 = 34

Miguel has a total of 27 dimes and nickels. The total value of the coins is $1.80. How many dimes and nickels does he have?

soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

There are 9 dimes and 18 nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d = be the number of dimes

n = be the number of nickels

d + n = 27...eq.1

0.10d + 0.05n = 1.80...eq.2

Solve the system of equations

d + n = 27

10d + 5n = 180 ( multiply eq.2 by 100 )

-5d - 5n = -135

5d = 45

d = 9 , there are 9 dimes so,0.90

n = 27 - 9 = 18, there are 18 nickels so, 0.90

To check: 9 dimes + 18 nickels = 27 coins

0.90 + 0.90 = $ 1.80 total value of the coins

How can two different rectangles both have a perimeter of 24 cm

dem82 [27]

Explanation:

Perimeter is simply the sum of all the edges. The same way 10 can be made of 4+6 or 3+7, the perimeter can be made by many combinations. if you know the 2 must equal 24cm, then we can create numerous combinations.
