The formula for the perimeter is P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>, where <em>w</em> is the width and <em>l</em> is the length. It is given that the width = (x+2) and the length = (x+6). Therefore, we can make this equation:
P = 2<em>w</em> + 2<em>l</em>
64 = 2(x+2) + 2(x+6) ⇒ Distributive property
⇒ 64 = 2x + 4 + 2x + 12 ⇒ Combine like terms
⇒ 64 = 4x + 16 ⇒ Subtract 16 from both sides
⇒ 48 = 4x ⇒ Divide both sides by 4
⇒ x = 12
Then, we use x = 12 and substitute it in to find the length and width
<em>Width</em> = (x+2) = (12+2) = 14
<em>Length</em> = (x+6) = (12+6) = 18
The dimensions of the patio is <u>14 by 18</u>
Answer:
1 roll of ribbon, 1 package of buttons, and 3 packages of beads
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the information you found about how much each makes to answer the question.
Lynette will make 6 decorations.
Since 1 roll makes 6, she needs 1 roll.
Since 1 package of buttons makes 6, she needs 1 package.
Since 1 package of beads makes 2, she needs 3 packages.
Answer:
5 or 6
Step-by-step explanation:
So I did it in a different way than shown in rsm classes. I said that the speed was x-2 and x.
then I said the distance was 6 and 15. If the time taken was 1 hour more, then we can come up with this equation:
Since the time is 6/x-2 or 15/x
15/x-6/x-2=1
multiply everything to get a common denominator then cancel it out to get
(15x-30)-6x=x^2-2x
11x-30=x^2
x^2-11x+30=0
(x-5)(x-6) is factored form.
so x=5 or x=6. this means that the speed of the boat is either 5km/h or 6 km/h
Given that,
Shelley's pet food store sold one customer 5 peanut butter biscuits for $3. She sold another customer 7 beef treats for $4.20.
For peanut, the cost is ratio is
For beef, the ratio is
If we take cross product of these items,
It implies, that the sale is in true proportion. From the cross product, we find that it is equal.
I tried just give it to me anyway
