If a rectangle has perimeter of 70 a length of x and a width of x-9, find the value of the length of a rectangle

length = 22

width = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula

P =2(l+w)

we know the length is x

width is x-9

P =70

Substituting this into the equation

70 = 2(x+x-9)

Combining like terms

70=2(2x-9)

Distributing the 2

70 = 4x-18

Adding 18 to each side

70+18 = 4x-18+18

88 = 4x

Divide by 4

88/4 = 4x/4

22= x

we know the length is x

length = 22

width is x-9

width = 22-9= 13

answer: the answer is 40.82

step-by-step explanation: 3.14 x 13(or half of 26) to the power of 2

answer:  

step-by-step explanation:

here x represents the height of the pole,

and, the height of the shadow of the pole is 12 feet.

also, the angle of elevation from the top of the pole is 40°,

therefore,

by the low of sine,

which is the required equation for finding the value of x,
