Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The dimensions of the field is 185 yards by 48 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are interested in calculating the dimensions of the field.

Let the width of the field be x yards

From the question, we are made to know that the length of the field is 7 yards less than quadruple ( 4 times) the width

So mathematically, the length of the field will be ;

(4x -7) yards

The perimeter of the field mathematically is:

2(l + b)

Thus;

2(x + 4x- 7) = 466

2(5x -7) = 466

divide both side by 2

5x - 7 = 466/2

5x - 7 = 233

5x = 233 + 7

5x = 240

x = 240/5

x = 48 yards

Length of field is; 4x -7 = 4(48) -7 = 192 - 7 = 185 yards

The length of a rectangle it twice it's within. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 30 cm, find its area.

Answers

w - width

2w - length (l)

30 cm - perimeter

w + w + 2w + 2w = 6w - perimeter

The equation:

6w = 30    divide both sides by 6

w = 5 cm

2w = 2(5) = 10

l = 10 cm

The area of a rectangle: A = lw.

Substitute:

A = (5)(10) = 50

Answer: The area is 50cm²

Answers

Yes I would agree with a

10. 3x – x +4 = 4(2x-1) 11. 4(2x +1) = 5x + 3x +9

12. 10+ x = 5 (1/5x + 2)

13. 8 (x + 2) = 2x + 16

14. 3+ 3/2x + 4 = 4x – 5/2x

15. 3/2 (2x +6) = 3x +9

16. ½ (2-4x) +2x = 13

17. 12 + 2x – x = 9x +6

18. 4x +1 = 2 (2x + 3)

19. 4 (x + 3) - 4 = 8(½x + 1)

20. X + 5x + 4 = 3(2x – 1)

21. 5 (x + 2) - 3x = 2 (x +5)
