Answer:
First, we need to know how to calculate the area and the permiter of a rectangle.
To calculate the area, we multiply base by height and to calculate the perimeter, we sum all sides.
Knowing this, we can say that the area is 3x * (x+5) and the perimiter is 3x + 3x + x + 5 + x + 5, as we know both are the same, we write it as an equation:
Now we solve the equation:
As the negative result doesn't have sense, we only pick the second one: 1.
If x = 1, then area would be 3*6 = 18 square inches and perimeter 3+3+6+6 = 18 inches
Answer: 15.7 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the time in the beginning (in minutes).
Given: The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race.
First they reduce their time by 2.1 minutes.
Then they are able to reduce that time by 10
If their final time is 3.96 minutes, then
Hence, their beginning time was 15.7 minutes.
