If you could me with this that would be great. i’m very sick and my brain isn’t functioning right so . if you can’t show your work that is no problem. you : )

a. triangle: 8x-5; rectangle: 12x+3.

b. 9(8x-5) = 5(12x+3); x = 5

c. 234 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The perimeter of a triangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides:

... Pt = (x -3) + (3x -5) + (4x +3) = x(1+3+4) +(-3-5+3)

... Pt = 8x -5

The perimeter of a rectangle is the sum of the lengths of its sides. Since two adjacent sides have the same lengths as their opposite sides, we can add the lengths of adjacent sides and multiply by 2.

... Pr = 2((4x -1/2) + (2x +2)) = 2(x(4+2) + (-1/2+2)) = 2(6x +3/2)

... Pr = 12x +3

b. The ratio of the perimeters is 5/9, so we have ...

... Pt/Pr = 5/9

... 9·Pt = 5·Pr . . . . . . . multiply by 9·Pr

... 9(8x -5) = 5(12x +3) . . . . . . a linear equation relating the perimeters

... 72x -45 = 60x +15 . . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses

... 12x = 60 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 45-60x

... x = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 12

c. The area of the rectangle is the product of its length and width.

... A = L·W = ((2x +2) cm) × ((4x -1/2) cm) = ((2·5+2) cm) × ((4·5 -1/2) cm)

... = (12 cm)×(19.5 cm)

... A = 234 cm²

44

step-by-step explanation:

x is greater than 5

step-by-step explanation:

2x+7 is greater than 17

    -7                           -7

2x is greater than 10

divide by 2 each side

x is greater than 5
