Answer:

  8 by 12 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the rectangle. Then the length is 1.5w. The perimeter is 4 more than 3 times this, so is (3(1.5w) +4) = 4.5w+4

The perimeter is given by the formula ...

  P = 2(length + width)

Filling in the given values for the variables, we have ...

  4.5w +4 = 2(w +1.5w)

  4 = 0.5w . . . . . . subtract 4.5w and collect terms

  8 = w . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

  length = 1.5×8 = 12

The rectangle is 8 units wide and 12 units long. The perimeter is 40 units.

The Charleston family has less than 500 Dalmatians. There are six times as many Dalmatians with black spots on their right ears
ANEK [815]
Let x be the number of Dalmatians without black spots.
So, x+6x is close to 500, which means x=71.
71*7=497, which is the total number of Dalmatians.
Giving away 6% of this will give you around 467 Dalmatians left.

Answer:467 Dalmatians
