3 0

Answer:

I simply listed the factors of 24, and tested which ones worked in this equation: P = 2a + 2b.

So the factors listed were:

24 x 1

12 x 2

8 x 3

6 x 4

After testing each one of these, 6 and 4 had worked for me.

P = 2(6) + 2(4)

P = 12 + 8

P = 20

Therefore, the dimensions of this rectangle are 6 and 4.

The weight of an object is equal to 3\4 of its own weight plus 3\4of a pound. What is the weight?

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

The weight of the object is 3 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Let object weight be x kg.

Now, as per the available data,

3/4 kg + 3/4 (x kg) = x kg

Step 2:

3/4 (1 + x) = x

1 + x = 4x/3

1 = x (4/3 - 1)

x = 1 / (1/3)

x = 3

Weight of Object is 3 kg.

Step 3:

Let's check if this value satisfies the first equation.

3/4 + 3/4 x 3 = 3/4 + 9/4 = 12/4 = 3

Hence proved.
