P = 2(l + w)            formula for perimeter

12 = 2(5w + w)       sub in what we know to create an equation

12 = 2(6w)              solve for w
12 = 12w
12/12 = w
1 = w

The width is 1 inch.

Which ordered pair is a solution of this equation? -6x + y = 35 Click on the correct answer. (-1,-7 (-6,-1) (-1,-6) (-7,-1)​
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

The ordered pair (-6, -1) is the only solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x + y = 35

Let's plug in the points.

(-1, -7) --> -6(-1) - 7 = 6 - 7 = -1 which does not equal 35

(-6, -1) --> -6(-6) -1 = 35

(-1, -6) --> -6(-1) - 6 = 0 which does not equal 35

(-7, -1) --> -6(-7) - 1 = 41 which does not equal 35

3. (5 + 2) = (3 . 5) + (3 . 2) *
UNO [17]

Answer:

C) Distributive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

You're <em>distributing</em> in the 3 when you multiply it by the 5 and the 2 in the algebraic process:

 ➦  ➦

3•(5 + 2) = (3 • 5) + (3 • 2)

So, the 3 was <em>distributed</em> between the 5 and 2 when you multiplied.

Hence, this is the distributive property.

6x − 3y = 7, −2x + y = −8 <br><br> x=?<br> y=?
kap26 [50]

Answer:

no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

6x - 3y = 7 → (1)

- 2x + y = - 8 → (2)

multiplying (2) by 3 and adding to (1) eliminates the variables

- 6x + 3y = - 24 → (3)

add (1) and (3) term by term

0 + 0 = - 17

0 = - 17 ← false statement

This indicates the system has no solution
