There are two equation of the system
(1) The perimeter
     2(w + l) = p
     2(w + l) = 86
(2) The length and the width
      2w = l + 2

From the second equation
2w = l + 2
l + 2 = 2w
l = 2w - 2

Subtitute l with 2w - 2 in the first equation to find the width
2(w + l) = 86
2(w + 2w - 2) = 86
2(3w - 2) = 86
6w - 4 = 86
6w = 90
w = 15

Now, find the length by subtituting w with 15
l = 2w - 2
l = 2(15) - 2
l = 30 - 2
l = 28

The dimension of the rectangle
length = 28 cm
width = 15 cm

REY [17]
After a thorough search, I found the same question on the internet. Please refer to the attached picture. If it's the same one with yours, then the answer is letter C - The constant 10 refers to the cost of setting up the food stall even if no cheeseburger was sold.

It is like a fixed cost that is incurred by the food stall that they need to pay for not considering the sales or income they would earn.

One card is randomly selected from a deck of cards. Find the odds against drawing a three​
Burka [1]

The answer is 12:1

note: this is often read as "12 to 1"

==============================================

Explanation

We have exactly four card that are labeled "3" and 52 cards total. So there are 52-4 = 48 cards that are not labeled "3".

From here you write the ratio 48:4 to indicate the odds against drawing a 3. There are 48 ways to lose, 4 ways to win. You list the number of ways to lose first when it comes to "odds against" type of problems.

Next step is to reduce the ratio 48:4 to get 12:1, note how I divided both parts by the GCF 4

48/4 = 12

4/4 = 1

So thats how 48:4 reduces to 12:1

If you focus on one suit, say the spades, then we have 12 cards that arent a 3 of spades while exactly one card is a 3 of spades. This is one way to see why 12:1 is the answer. If you were saying this out loud to a friend, then you might say something like "the odds against drawing a three are 12 to 1".
