Formula for triangle perimeter is: a + b + c. In this scenario we have:
a = 3 feet 8 inches
b = 2 feet 10 inches
c = 4 feet
a + b + c =
= 3 ft + 8 in + 2 ft + 10 in + 4 ft =
= 9 ft + 18 in
We know that 1 foot is 12 inches, so we can simplify the result to this form:
10 ft + 6 in
or:
<u>10.5 feet</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5(x - 1.5) = 22.5
5x - 7.5 = 22.5
5x = 15
x = 3
Answer:
<h2>P = 48</h2><h2>A = 144 </h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of regular polygon with <em>n</em> sides of length <em>b</em> and apothem <em>a</em>:

We have:
n = 6
b = 8
a = 6
Substitute:

The perimeter:

Area = (x - 5)(x – 7)
Area = x(x - 7) - 5(x - 7)
Area = x^2 -7x -5x + 35
Area = x^2 -12x + 35
algebraic expression that represents its area: x^2 -12x + 35
x^2 - 12x + 35 = 195
x^2 - 12x + 35 - 195 = 0
x^2 - 12x - 160 = 0
x^2 - 8x - 20x - 160 = 0
x (x + 8) - 20 (x + 8) = 0
(x + 8) (x - 20) = 0
(x + 8) = 0
(x - 20) = 0
x = - 8 (not a solution)
x = 20
hence,
length = x - 5
length = 20 - 5
length = 15 m
width = x - 7
width = 20 - 7
width = 13 m
perimeter = 2(13) + 2(15)
perimeter = 26 + 30
perimeter = 56 m²
