Need on number 25 and 26 can you explain how you got the answer ! : )

In both problems, the sum of side lengths is the perimeter. Opposite sides of a parallelogram (or rectangle) are equal in length, so you can find the perimeter by doubling the sum of adjacent sides.

25. 2(x +(x +15)) = (x +45) +(x +40) +(x +25)

The perimeter of each is 240 units.

26. 2(x +(x +2)) = (x) +(x +6) +(x +4)

The perimeter of each is 28 units.

Answer: b 2 = 1.

step-by-step explanation: given equation a = h(b 1+b 2)

also we are given values of a, h and b 1 as :

a = 16, h = 4, and b 1 = 3.

in order to solve it for b 2, we need to plug the given values of   a, h and b 1 .

therefore, plugging values of   a, h and b 1   in given equation, we get

16 = 4( 3 + b 2)

first dividing both sides by 4, we get

4 = 3 + b 2

subtracting 3 from both sides, we get

4 -3 = 3 -3 + b 2

1 = b 2.

therefore, b 2= 1.
