P = 2(L + W)
P = 22
L = 2W + 2

22 = 2(2W + 2 + W)
22 = 2(3W + 2)
22 = 6W + 4
22 - 4 = 6W
18 = 6W
18/6 = W
3 = W.....this is the width

L = 2W + 2
L = 2(3) + 2
L = 6 + 2
L = 8 meters <=== this is the length

P=2(l+w)
P= perimeter= 22m
l=length= (2w+2)
w=width

Step 1:
Solve for w
substitute l=(2w+2) in equation

22=2[(2w+2)+w]
combine like terms inside parentheses

22=2(3w+2)
use distributive property to multiply 2 by everything inside parentheses

22=(2*3w) + (2*2)
22=6w+4
subtract 4 from both sides
18=6w
divide both sides by 6
3 meters=w= width

Step 2:
Solve for length by substituting w=3

22=2(l+w)
22=2(l+3)
22=(2*l) + (2*3)
22=2l+6
16=2l
8 meters = l= length

Check:
22=2(l+w)
22=2(8+3)
22=2(11)
22=22

Hope this helps! :)

Hannah earns $48 in 4 hours at this rate how many dollars will she earn in 20 hours?
baherus [9]
Hannah will earn $240 in 20 hours

Explanation: Since it tells you she earns $48 in 4 hours, you have to find how much she earns in 1 hour. So you do 48 divided by 4 (12) and that is how much she earns in 1 hour. Since the question is, how much does she earn in 20 hours, you multiply 12 x 20 and that equals 240 which means she earns $240 in 20 hours

Rafael want to buy the same number of gifts bags and bows gifts bags are sold in packs of 6. Bows are sold in packs of 9. What i
GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

Rafael should buy 9 gift bags and 6 bows packet so, that she can have SAME NUMBER OF ITEMS, i.e 54.

Step-by-step explanation:

The gift bags are sold in the packs of 6.

So, the number of gift bags in 1 packet  = 6 gift bags

The number of gift bags in 2  packet  = 6 x 2 gift bags  = 12  gift bags

The number of gift bags in 3  packet  = 6 x 3 gift bags  = 18  gift bags

And continuing similarly, we get

The number of gift bags in 9  packet  = 6 x 9 gift bags  = 54 gift bags.. (1)

The bows are sold in the pack of 9.

So, the number of bows in 1 packet  = 9 bows

The number of bows in 2 packet   = 9 x 2 bows  = 18 bows

The number of bows in 3 packet   = 9 x 3 bows  = 27 bows

And continuing similarly, we get

The number of bows in 6  packet  = 9 x 6 bows  = 54 bows... (2)

Here, comparing both equations (1) and (2) , we get

The number of gift bags = 54  = The number of bows.

Hence, Rafael should buy 9 gift bags and 6 packet of bows so, that she can have SAME NUMBER OF ITEMS, i.e 54.
