The  variable x represent the length of rectangle.

<h3>What is Algebra?</h3>

A branch of mathematics known as algebra deals with symbols and the mathematical operations performed on them.

Variables are the name given to these symbols because they lack set values.

In order to determine the values, these symbols are also subjected to various addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division arithmetic operations.

Given:

Perimeter= 64 units

let the length be x.

So, width = x - 3

So, Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( l + w)

64 = 2( x+ x -3)

32 = 2x -3

29= 2x

x= 29/2

Hence, the variable x represent the length of rectangle.

Answer:

Cost of 1 hamburger = $1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume;

Cost of 1 hamburger = a

Cost of 1 French fries = b

On first trip

3a + 4b = 7.10......eq1

On second trip

2a + b = 3.40....eq2

From eq2 x 4

8a + 4b = 13.6....eq3

From eq3 - eq1

5a = 6.5

a = 1.3

Cost of 1 hamburger = $1.3
