Complete question :
A 12-foot by 15-foot patio is increased by placing a stone border around the patio. The width of the border is the same all around the patio.The perimeter of the patio after it is expanded is 74 feet. The equation which represents x, the width of the border is 2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74. What is the width of the border?
1) 2 1/2 feet
2) 3 feet
4) 5 feet
5) 8 1/2 feet
Answer:
2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving for X in the perimeter equation :
2[(12+2x)+15+2x)]=74
Open the bracket
2[(12 + 2x + 15 + 2x)] = 74
2(27 + 4x) = 74
54 + 8x = 74
8x = 74 - 54
8x = 20
x = 20/8
x = 2.5
Hence, width fo border = 2.5

Answer:
x° = 64°
Explaination:
This is a right angled triangle so one of the angle is 90°.
So, x° + 90° = 154° (Exterior angle property)
x° = 154° - 90° = 64°
Therefore x° = 64°
Answer:
AC = 12.5 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
use cosine law c^2 = a^2 + b^2 − 2ab cos(C)
c^2 = 6^2 + 10^2 - 2(6)(10)(cosin100)
c^2 = 156.84
c= √156.84
c= 12.5 cm
The cosine rule is used when we are given either three sides or two sides and the included angle.
