First you want to make an equation to express the problem. For this one in particular, let's make the length be represented by "L" and the width "W."
The length minus three times the width is 1 foot. This can be represented as L - 3W = 1. This means that L = 3W + 1. This will be our substitute for the length.
The perimeter of a rectangle is 2 times the length plus the width P = 2(L + W). By substituting these variables from what we now know we can find out the dimensions of the rectangle.
42 = 2(3W + 1 + W)
42 = 6W + 2 + 2W Multiply <u>everything in parenthesis</u> by 2.
42 = 8W + 2 Add the like terms.
40 = 8W Subtract 2 on both sides to get the <em>variable (W) </em>by itself.
5 = W Divide 8 from 40 to get what W equals.
The width is equal to 5. We can now plug in this answer to the original equation (P = 2(L + W)) or the length equation we made earlier (L = 3W + 1) to find the length.
42 = 2(L + 5)
42 = 2L + 10 Multiply <u>everything in parenthesis<em /></u><u><em /></u> by 2.<u />
32 = 2L Subtract 10 from both sides to get the <em>variable (L) </em>by itself.
16 = L Divide 2 from 32 to get what L equals.
<u>Or</u><u />
L = 3(5) + 1 Replace the <em>variable (W) </em>with 5.
L = 15 + 1 Multiply 3 by 5 to get 15.
L = 16 Add the remaining terms!
So the dimensions of the rectangle are 5 and 16, where 5 is the width and 16 is the length. I hope this answer made sense and that you can solve these on your own in the future!

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
None of them
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 30+135+45 add up to 210 then if you add 30, or 45 degrees it will be more than 180 degrees. If you subtract -15 from 210 you will get 195 which is still not right. So the best answer is none of the above
Hope this helps
we need to see the table, olease link the pic so I can solve it
