how do you work out the value of "d" in the equation: 7d=4d+21

Answers

Subtract 4d from each side. / / / 3d = 21. / / / Divide each side by 3. / / / d = 7 .

I'm not completely positive but I believe this is how you do it.

7d=4d+21

7d - 4d = 21

3d = 21

3d / 3 = 21 / 3

d = 7


What is the length of the side of a square field whose perimeter is 72 mº.

Answers

Answer:

18 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

"Perimeter" is all 4 sides added together, right?

Since it's a square, all four sides are equal, so the problem looks like this:

s + s + s + s = 72  where s = side length

Before doing any math, can you think of a number that you could add to itself 4 times and get 72?  If not, you get to do some algebra:

s + s + s + s = 72  reduces to:

4s = 72  Then solve for s:

s = 72/4 = 18 m

Check your work by seeing if 4 x 18 = 72.  It does, so the answer is correct.
