Answer Choices:

96
84

Answers

Answer:

96cm

Step-by-step explanation:

front/back triangles: (4 * 3) / 2 = 6cm

bottom rectangle: 4 * 7 = 28cm

side rectangle (left): 3 * 7 = 21cm

slanted rectangle: pythagoras - 3^2 + 4^2 = x^2

9 + 16 = x^2

25 = x^2

square root of 25 = 5

x = 5

7 * 5 = 35cm

6 * 2 + 28 + 21 + 35 = 96cm

96 is the answer to your question

That’s should he right but also it could of been 54

Answer:

C. j=2 and h=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Create a system of equations for your problem based off what we know.

- we should know that the equation to find the perimeter of something is

[tex]P= 2l+2w[/tex] where P is the perimeter, l is the length, and w is the width.

- we know that the perimeter of Rectangle P is 20 inches and that the perimeter of Rectangle Q is 30

- we know the length and width of both rectangles

Using this information, lets set up our system.:

[tex]\left \{ {{20=2(j+4)+2h} \atop {30=2(3h)+2(j+1)}} \right.[/tex]

Step 2: Using the top equation we're going to try to solve for one of the variables. I chose to solve for variable j.

[tex]20=2(j+4)+2h[/tex]

Start by distributing 2 into j + 4.

[tex]20=2j+8+2h[/tex]

Now subtract 8 from both sides of the equation.

[tex]12=2j+2h[/tex]

Now isolate variable j by subtracting 2h from both sides of the equation.

[tex]12-2h=2j[/tex]

Now condense the equation into simple terms by dividing both sides by its GCF 2 then reorder to get j on the left.

[tex]j=6-h[/tex]

Step 3: Now that we solved for variable j we can now substitute j into one of our equations from the original system. I chose to use the bottom equation and chose to distribute it before substituting.

[tex]30=6h+2j+2[/tex]

Subtract two from both sides to isolate the variables

[tex]28=6h+2j[/tex]

Now we can plug j into our equation

[tex]28=6h+2(6-h)[/tex]

Step 4: Distribute 2 into 6-h

[tex]28=6h+12-2h[/tex]

Step 5: Combine like terms

[tex]28=4h+12[/tex]

Step 6: Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation

[tex]16=4h[/tex]

Step 7: Divide both sides by 4

[tex]4=h[/tex]

Now that we know that h=4 we can plug 4 into one of our earlier equations. I used j=6-h

[tex]j=6-4\\j=2[/tex]

Plug answers into either one of the original equations to check answer
