The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2L + 2W, where L is the length and W is the width. Because we don't know either the length or the width we can't solve the problem...too many unknowns. BUT we do have some information that will help with this problem. We are told that the length is 2 feet longer than the width, so we can use that: L = W+2. Now we can make the substitution into the formula along with the value for the perimeter that was given to us: 36=2(W+2) + 2W, and 36 = 2W + 4 + 2W; 36 = 4W + 4; 32 = 4W and W = 8. Now go back to where you said that the length is 2 feet longer than the width. If the width is 8, then 8+2 = 10 for the length.
The value is 1/62

Hey there!!
Given equation :
... 2 ( x - ( 3 + 2x ) + 9 ) = 3x - 8
Using the distributive property.
... 2 ( x - 3 - 2x + 9 ) = 3x - 8
... 2 ( -x + 6 ) = 3x - 8
Using the distributive property.
... -2x + 12 = 3x - 8
Subtracting 12 on both sides.
... -2x = 3x - 8 - 12
... -2x = 3x - 20
Subtracting 3x on both sides.
... -2x - 3x = -20
... -5x = -20
Dividing by -5 on both sides.
... x = -20 / -5
... x = 4
<em>Hence, the answer is 4. </em>
Hope my answer helps!
11/12 hours left. 1 2/3 - 3/4 = 11/12. First, find the common denominator (12) . The problem is now 1 8/12 - 9/12. Use the 1 in (1 8/12) to borrow. Multiply the denominator by 1 (12) and add that to the numerator. The question is now 20/12 - 9/12. I assume that you can finish it off from there.
Answer:
-3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find rise / run. It goes down 3 (so -3) and right 2 (so positive 2)
-3/2
