B = 3m + 2p Work out the value of p when B= 2 and m = 5
2 answers:
This is called a "substitution problem" is where you have variable that have defined values and plug them in value calculate the expression.
B = 3m + 2p # Starting equation
2 = (3)(5) + 2p # Substitution
2 = 15 + 2p # Multiplication
-13 = 2p # Subtract 15 from both sides
= p # Divide both sides from 2
p = # Use the reflexive property of equality

Answer:
29 ; 37
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is composed by a square, a rectangle, and a right triangle
The perimeter of the square is 6 units
The perimeter of the rectangle is 10 units
The triangle is composed by a side of 6 units and a side of 5 units
The third side can be find with the Pythagorean theorem
= 7,81025
The total perimeter is
6 + 10 + 5 + 7,81025 = 28,81025 = 29
Area of the square = 2^2 = 4 square units
Area of the rectangle = 6 x 3 = 18 square units
Area of the triangle = (5 x 6)/2 = 15 square units
Total area = 4 + 18 + 15 = 37 square units
