Let x represent the shorter sides, then 2x + 1 would represent the longer sides. There are four short sides and two long sides. The perimeter is 162 cm. The equation: 4x + 2(2x + 1) = 162 4x + 8x + 2 = 162 8x + 2 = 162 Subtract 2 from both sides. 8x = 160 Divide both sides by 8. x = 20 The shorter sides are 20 cm in length. The longer sides are 2x + 1, or 41 cm in length. Check: 4 * 20 + 2 * 41 = 162 80 + 82 = 162 162 = 162, values check.
Adding the student with eight siblings will increase the class average amount of siblings because this student has more siblings than the average.
Therefore, the average number of siblings that each student has is larger than the original average.
you are right.
they all go up into a positive region and out of a negative region
hopes this helps
