25x+20y=455
x+y=20
20x+20y=400
-25x-20y=-455
-5x=-55
x=11
11+y=20
y=9
Solved it as well, sorry if I wasn't supposed to
A pound is a unit of weight, not volume.
Good luck!
Answer:
51
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey There!
To find the perimeter of any figure all you have to do is add up all of the side lengths
5+5+7+11+7+16=53
so the perimeter is equal to 51
Note: the 18 is from the bottom length of the figure
you would have to add the 5 and 11
the extra seven is from the very right side length
Rearrange to: x^2 + 18x - 25 = 0
Then factorise (I like to do it by completing the square):
(x + 9)^2 -81 -25 = 0
(x + 9)^2 = 106
x + 9 = sqrt(106)
The sol'ns are:
x = -9 + and - sqrt(106)
