Parallelogram have 4 sides.
Use the distributive property. 2 multiply the last and negative 4 in the parentheses.
2l + 2(l - 4) = 72 m
Combine Like terms
2l + 2l - 8 = 72 m
4l - 8 = 72 m
Get l all by itself by adding 8 to both sides
4l - 8 = 72 m
+8. +8
Divide both sides by 4
4l = 80
4. 4
l= 20
The width of the parallelogram is four meters less than its length.
4 sides
2 length = 20
2 width = 16
I got 16 by subtracting 4 from 20

Answer: 
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Answer:
40% . The single reduction together is 40%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the bicycle cost is x before reduced price.
First 25% is reduced and again 20% further reduced.
Let the single reduction is y% if the two reduction together are equal.
Solution,
Case .1
reduction cost
%


The cost of bicycle after reduction of 25% is

cost of reduction further reduction of 20%
%


The new cost of bicycle is further reduction of 20% is



Case.2
if single reduction is done new cost of cycle is equal
%=



%
single reduction of a cycle is 40%
Y = -x +8 is the answer for this one.

does this make sense to you? Do you have any questions about raising numbers to a negative value?
