Perimeter = 2(l+b)
74 = 2 ( 23 + b )
b = 14
width = 14 inches

Perimeter, P = 2*(L + W), 

Where L = Length, W = Width

P = 2*(L + W)

74 = 2*(23 + W)

74/2 = (23 + W)

37 = (23 + W)

37 - 23 = W

14 = W

W = 14

The width is 14 inches.

How do you solve -1x+20 is greater than -7+35
rusak2 [61]

\huge\fbox{Hello~there!}

Let's solve this inequality!

\rm{-x+20>-7+35

What can we do to solve this inequality? Well, first of all, we can add -7 and 35:

\rm{-x+20>28

Now, move 20 to the right, using the opposite operation:

\rm{-x>28-20

Subtract:

\rm{-x>8

Divide both sides by -1 to isolate x:

\rm{x (Answer)

_____________

<em>Additional comment</em>

When we divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, we flip the inequality sign.

____________

I hope you find it helpful.

Feel free to ask if you have any questions.

How do you solve this URGENT (50pts)
Aliun [14]

Explanation:

x + 3y = 2

<u>Converting it to slope intercept form</u>:

y = mx + b  [where m is slope, b is y-intercept]

<u>Make y the subject</u>:

\sf \rightarrow  3y = 2 - x

\sf \rightarrow 3y = -x + 2

\sf \rightarrow y = -\dfrac{x}{3} + \dfrac{2}{3}

\sf \rightarrow y = -\dfrac{1}{3} x+ \dfrac{2}{3}

<u>which reveals slope</u>:

\star \   slope: \sf  - \dfrac{1}{3}

Joey earns $12 an hour. Blake earns $16 per hour. Joey receives a raise of $1.50 every six months, and Blake receives a raise of
tino4ka555 [31]

*12 + 1.5x = 16 + 0.50x*

That's the answer, since I'm late.

This is correct because when setting up this sentence as an equation, you need to look at the numbers and how they're used. There are independents and dependents.

indep.:

12,16

dep.:

1.50,0.50

Furthermore, there are 1 of each on both sides of the equation, match them from the equation by name and you get the answer.
