Let the length and breadth of the rectangle be x and y.

Area of rectangle is A = xy

Therefore, the new length will be = x-5

Therefore, the new breadth will be = y + 3

So new area will be xy-9

Now the new relation will be (x+3)(y+2)=xy+67

.

Cross – multiplication method–

\dfrac{x}{{{b_1}{c_2} - {b_2}{c_1}}} =\dfrac{y}{{{a_2}{c_1} - {c_2}{a_1}}} = \dfrac{1}{{{a_1}{b_2} - {a_2}{b_1}}} || x = \dfrac{{{b_1}{c_2} - {b_2}{c_1}}}{{{a_1} {b_2} - {a_2}{b_1}}} y = \dfrac{{{a_2}{c_1} - (c_2}{a_1}}}{{{a_1}{b_2}-{a_2}{b_1}}}\\

\Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{{305 - ( - 18)}} =\dfrac{y}{{ - 12 - ( - 183)}} = \dfrac{1}{{9 - 10)}}\\\

\Rightarrow \dfrac{x}{{323}} = \dfrac{y}{{171}} = \dfrac{1}{{19}} \\\Rightarrow x = 17, y = 9 \\

Therefore, the length is 17 and breadth is 9.

mina [271]

Answer: 22 1/2


Step-by-step explanation: first convert 4 1/2 into a mixed # = 9/2

The divide that by 5 (mult by reciprocal)

Reciprocal is the # flipped so,

9/2 x 1/5

= 45/2

divide 45 by 2

Choice 1
Choice 1 and 3 shows parallel, choice 2 and 4 shows perpendicular. So cross out choices 2 and 4. We’re left with choices 1 and 3. I would go with choice 1 since choice 3 shows RAY A is parallel to RAY B, which isn’t true, they’re not parallel.

Hello.

Taking a look at our screenshot provided, we can conclude that we need to find the missing angle degree out of 90 degrees, as we are dealing with a right angle.

Let's set this up as an Algebraic formula and solve for the variable;
5x + 15 + 50 = 90

First, let's combine like-terms (15 and 50).

5x + 65 = 90

Now, isolate our variable by subtracting 65 from each side of the equation.

90 - 65 = 25
65 - 65 = 0

5x = 25

Now, divide both sides by 5 to solve for x, our missing angle degree.

x = 5

Your answer is A.) 5

I hope this helps!
