If this first answers correct what is the answer to the second question? Are they even connected?

see below (I hope this helps!)

Step-by-step explanation:

9) We know that the perimeters of the square and triangle are equal so to find x, we can write:

4(x - 5) = x + x + 12

4x - 20 = 2x + 12

2x = 32

x = 16

10) To find the perimeter, we can substitute x = 16 into 4(x - 5) which would be 4(16 - 5) = 4 * 11 = 44.

the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996

step-by-step explanation:

in synthetic division, use -6 as the divisor and use the coefficients {4, -3, 5, 6}:

-6     )   4     -3     5     6

                -24   162 -1002

          4   -27   167   -996

thus, the quotient is 4x^2 - 27x + 167 with a remainder of -996.

note:   your "4x°-3x+5x+6" is ambiguous / incomplete.   i had to assume that you meant '4x^3 - 3x^2 + 5x + 6."

75

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75
