The perimeter of a rectangle is 54cm. the area of the same rectangle is 176 cm^2. what are the dimensions of the rectangle? a. 11 cm by 16 cm b. 8 cm by 22 cm c. 5.5 cm by 32 cm d. 4 cm by 44 cm

Given is rectangle with perimeter = 54 centimeters and area = 176 squared centimeters.

Let's consider the length of rectangle = L and width of rectangle = W.

We know the following formulas for rectangle :-

Perimeter = 2 x (L + W)

Area = L x W

So we have 2 x (L + W) = 54 and L x W = 176.

L + W = 27 and L x W = 176

We need to find two positive integers such that their sum is 27 and product is 176.

Using trial and error, we have two such positive integers such that 11 + 16 = 27 and 11 x 16 = 176.

So, the dimensions of rectangle would be 11cm x 16cm.

Hence, option A is correct i.e. 11 cm by 16 cm.

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions

so firstly, we need to isolate the y variables to be able to solve these inequalities. firstly, add 0.5x on both sides of the first inequality and subtract 1.5x on both sides of the second inequality:

now since the slope is positive for the first inequality, this means that the line going upwards belongs to the first inequality, and the line going downwards belongs to the second inequality.

next, since y ≥ in the first inequality, this means that the shaded region will be above the first inequality's line, thus shading regions a and b.

next, since y ≤ in the second inequality, this means that the shaded region is going to be below this line, thus shading regions a and c.

since both lines shade region a, this means that region a is the solution.
