Step-by-step explanation:
AO = DO
2x+3 = 5x
3 = 5x-2x
3 = 3x
x = 1
DO = 5(1)=5cm
AC = 2×5 = 10cm
BC =√10²-8²
= √100-64
=√36
=6 cm
therefore, the perimeter of the rectangle
= 2×(8+6) = 2(14) = 28 cm
The first option and the third one
A. would be the answer because if you distribute/factor the expression you would get A.
Apply to Row 2 : Row 2 + Row 1
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y + 4z = -3
2x + 3y + 3z = 5
Apply to Row 3: Row 3 - Row 1
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y + 4z = -3
y = 5
Apply to Row 3: Row 3 - Row 2
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y + 4z = -3
-4z = 8
Simplify rows
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y + 4z = -3
z = -2

Apply to Row 2: Row 2 - 4 Row 3
2x + 2y + 3z = 0
y = 5
z = -2
Apply to Row 1: Row 1 - 3 Row 3
2x + 2y = 6
y = 5
z = -2
Apply to Row 1: Row 1 - 2 Row 2
2x = -4
y = 5
z = 2
Simplify the rows
<u>x = -2</u>
<u>y = 5</u>
<u>z = -2</u>
