x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 15 = 5x - 12 (since it is parallel)

15 + 12 = 5x - 2x

27 = 3x

x = 9

The sum of two numbers is 56. One number is 3 times as large as the other. What are the numbers?
MissTica
42 and 14

explanation:

x+y = 56
x = 3y

Substitute for x in the first equation:
x + y = 56
x = 3y
3y + y = 56
Combine like terms:
4y = 56
Divide both sides by 4:
y = 14

So if y = 14, and x = 3y, then x = 42.

Now substitute for both x and y in both of the original equations to prove they are the correct values.

x + y = 56
x = 42
y = 4
42 + 14 = 56
56 = 56

x = 3y
x = 42
y = 14
42 = 3*14
42 = 42

So the two numbers, x and y, are 42 and 14.

The perimeter of a basketball court is 278ft. The length is 41ft longer than the width. Find the dimensions of the court.
inysia [295]
Since Perimeter is Length+ Width, and there are "two lengths" and "two widths", the formula needed here is p=2l+2w. We have the P, so using that, along with knowing that l is 41ft longer than w;
p = 278 , l = w+41
278 = 2l + 2w

278 = 2(w+41) + 2w

We'll use the DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY first: 278 = 2w + 82 + 2w

Then we'll COMBINE LIKE TERMS: 278 = 4w + 82

Next we'll subtract 82 from both sides: 196 = 4w

And finally divide both sides by 4:
49 = w

Since the length is w+41 and we now know the width, we can see what the length is: l = w+41 , l = 49 + 41 , l = 90.

Now that we know the length, we can see what the dimensions of the court are:
Perimeter is 278ft
Width is 49ft
And the Length is 90ft.
