Cross multiply to get 8k+24=56 then solve for k so subtract 24 from each side to get 8k=32 so k=4
B = block p = park
2b + p = 10 min 2 runs around the block takes 10 minutes
2b + 3p = 22 min 2 runs around the block plus 3 runs around the park takes 22 minutes
To solve, I will use substitution. First, I will divide the first equation by 2 to get b by itself and subtract p from both sides to get b by itself. Then, substitute 5 - 1/2p in for b in the second equation because they have equal values. Then, subtract 10 from both sides to eliminate it. Divide by 2 to both sides to get 'p' by itself.
2b + p = 10 min ---------→b + 1/2p = 5 ----------→ b = 5 - 1/2p
2(5 - 1/2p) + 3p = 22 ---------→ 10 -p + 3p = 22 --------→ 10 + 2p = 22
10 + 3p = 22 ----------→ 2p = 12
2p = 12 -------------→ p = 6
It takes 6 minutes to jog around the park
Hope this helps!

Answer:
No.
If two rectangles are congruent, it means they are the exact same shape and size.
I have uploaded an image with this answer. In the image, you can see two rectangles with the same perimeter. However, they are not congruent because they are not of the same size (even though they are of the same shape - a rectangle).
Hence, two rectangles may not be congruent if they have the same perimeter.
