<span>Reorder the terms: -2.3(-1.2 + x) = -9.66 (-1.2 * -2.3 + x * -2.3) = -9.66 (2.76 + -2.3x) = -9.66 Solving 2.76 + -2.3x = -9.66 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-2.76' to each side of the equation. 2.76 + -2.76 + -2.3x = -9.66 + -2.76 Combine like terms: 2.76 + -2.76 = 0.00 0.00 + -2.3x = -9.66 + -2.76 -2.3x = -9.66 + -2.76 Combine like terms: -9.66 + -2.76 = -12.42 -2.3x = -12.42 Divide each side by '-2.3'. x = 5.4 Simplifying x = 5.4</span>

A rectangle has a perimeter of 54 cm. It has a length of 15 cm. What is its area? *

d1i1m1o1n [39]

the area is 180 cm. to find the perimeter you would do 15+15+14+14 to get 54 cm. So for area you do (l×w) which is 15×14=180.

Find the measure of an angle between 0º and 360º coterminal with an angle of –110º in standard position

kondor19780726 [428]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

An angle measures how how much you have to rotate one line called <em>initial side</em> so it lies on the top of other line called the <em>terminal side. </em>Angles whose vertex is located at the origin having the initial side on the positive x-axis is said to be in standard position. On the other hand, coterminal angles are angles in standard position having the same terminal side. In this way, for the angle:

$-110^{\circ} \\ \\ Its \ coterminal \ is: \\ \\ \alpha=360^{\circ}-110^{\circ}=\boxed{250^{\circ}}$

Find the perimeter of triangle PQR. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

BabaBlast [244]

We are given the coordinate of the 3 vertices. From these coordinates we can find the length of the sides using the distance formula and the sum of all the sides will be equal to the perimeter of the triangle.

Side PQ = $\sqrt{ (6-(-2))^{2}+ (1-1)^{2} }=8$

Side QR = $\sqrt{ (4-6)^{2}+ (-3-1)^{2} }=4.5$

Side RP = $\sqrt{ (2-(-4))^{2}+ (-3-1)^{2} }=7.2$

So, the perimeter of the triangle will be 8 + 4.5 + 7.2 = 19.7

You probably misplaced the digits in option A. The correct answer is 19.7 units.
