A rectangle has a perimeter of 84 meters and a length of 35 meters. What is the width of the rectangle?
2 answers:
To find the perimeter of a rectangle, we can use this formula: 
Where L is the length and W is the width.
We know the perimeter and we know the length and we want to find the width.
Substitute the values back into the formula.
2(35) + 2W = 84
70 + 2W = 84
2W = 14 <-- Subtract both sides by 70
W = 7 <-- Divide both sides by 2
So, width is 7 meters long.

Answer:
2x + 3y ≥ 5
Step-by-step explanation:
See the graph attached.
The bold straight line passes through the points (1,1) and (4,-1).
Therefore, the equation of the straight line will be
⇒ 3(y + 1) = - 2(x - 4)
⇒ 3y + 3 = - 2x + 8
⇒ 2x + 3y = 5 ............. (1)
Now, the shaded region i.e. the solution to the inequality does not include the origin(0,0).
So, putting x = 0 and y = 0 in the equation (1) we get, 0 < 5
Therefore, the inequality equation is 2x + 3y ≥ 5 (Answer)
