Answer:

(B) 18 cm x 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

let the length be x,

then the width is \frac{1}{3}x + 2

2( \frac{1}{3}x + 2 + x ) = 52

\frac{1}{3}x + 2 + x  = 26

\frac{4}{3} x = 24

x = (24*3)/4

x = 18

then the length is 18 cm

and width is (1/3)*18 + 2 = 8

Therefore the dimensions are length:width = 18 cm : 8 cm

Answer:

(B) 18cm x 8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle  =  52 cm

2(length + width)  =  52 ==>  l + w  =  26

Let x be the length

width  =  (x/3) + 2

x + (x/3) + 2  =  26

[(3x + x)/3]  + 2 =  26

4x / 3  =  24

4x  =  24 (3)

x  =  6(3) ==>  18 cm

Width  =  (18/3) + 2

=  6 + 2  =  8 cm

So, the required dimension is 18 cm x 8 cm.

What’s the midpoint of a line segment joining the points (5,-4) and(-13,12)?
Dafna1 [17]

Great question! A midpoint is exactly what it sounds like; the point in the middle of two objects (in this case it's the middle of these two coordinates). Another way to think of the middle of something in math is by using the average. To find the midpoint of two points, we just find the average of the x-values and the average of the y-values:

((x1 + x2)/2 , (y1 + y2)/2)

((5 + -13) / 2 , (-4 + 12) / 2)

( -8 / 2 , 8 / 2)

(-4 , 4)
