Answer:
P = 16x+26y units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length is (x+8y) units
Width = (8x-x+5y) units
We need to find the perimeter. We know that the perimeter is equal to the sum of all sides.
P = 2[(x+8y) + (8x-x+5y)]
= 2[(8x+8y+5y)]
= 2[8x+13y]
= 16x+26y
Hence, the required perimeter is 16x+26y.
It’s false because if you take a negative number away from another negative number it would give you another negative number not a positive number!
Answer:
34
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
2x - 7 = 9 ← solve for x
Add 7 to both sides
2x = 16 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 8
Substitute x = 8 into 5x - 6
5x - 6 = (5 × 8) - 6 = 40 - 6 = 34
