Hello!
When finding the perimeter of a rectangle, you have to consider the properties of a rectangle. A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides where one is the width, while the other one is the length.
Now looking back at your question, it says "... a rectangle that is x units wide" ⇒ you let the width = x ; this is the same with "y units long" ⇒ length = y. Perimeter can just be : P = 24.
Therefore,
The equation would be:
x + x + y + y = P.
2x + 2y = P.
(Sub in P = 24)
∴ 2x + 2y = 24. (This should be your answer.)
:) Good luck (Message me if you have any problem)

The perimeter of a rectangle is 24. If the length is 5 times the width, what is the area?

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: Area is 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle is 24

Let the length be x

Let the breadth be Y

Length is 5times the breadth

I.e

X=5y

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle is

2(length + breadth)

= 2(x+y)

Substitute for x=5y

2(5y+y)=24

2(6y)=24

6y=24/2

6y=12

Y=12/6

Y=2

Breadth = 2

Since length =5y

Length=5(2)

Length = 10

Area of a rectangle = length × breadth

Area= 10×2

Area = 20

Area of the rectangle is 20

Three added to eight times a number is the same as three times the value of two times the number -1

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

The number x is -3

Therefore x=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given problem is "Three added to eight times a number is the same as three times the value of two times the number -1"

Let x be the number

It can be written as

$3+8\times x=3(2\times x-1)$

$3+8x=3(2x-1)$ ( applying the distributive property )

$3+8x=3(2x)+3(-1)$

$3+8x=6x-3$

subtracting (6x-3) on both sides we get

$3+8x-(6x-3)=6x-3-(6x-3)$

$3+8x-6x+3=6x-3-6x+3$

$6+2x=0$ ( ading the like terms )

$2x=-6$

$x=-\frac{6}{2}$

Therefore x=-3

The number x is -3
