(6 • 2 - 2x + 16) + (4 • 2 + 7x - 55)
(-2x + 16 + 6 • 2) + (7x - 55 + 4 • 2)
(-2x + 16 + 12) + (7x - 55 + 8)
-2x + 28 + 7x - 47
-2x + 7x + 28 - 47
5x + (-19)
5x - 19
So the answer is 5x - 19.
Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=-2 y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
The substitution is basically given to you. Exchange x from the second equation with y-5
Once that is done and you combine the parentheses you get:
2y-10+y=-1
Add 10 on both sides of the equal sign
You get:
3y=9
Divide both sides by 3
You get:
y=3
To check your work you can substitute y in the second equation with 3 and solve it that way to get x=-2 (x equals negative two)
Given width is 24 less than length.
W=L-24
Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(L-24+L)=4L-48
But we're also given perimeter = 172'
Therefore 4L-48=172
solve for L
4L=172+48=220
L=55'
W=55-24 = 31'
Check: Perimeter = 2(W+L)=2(31+55)=2*86=172' good!
Answer: The dimensions of the garden are 31' * 55'
