Answer:

width < 2 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is:

P = 2w + 2l, where 'w'=width and 'l'=length

The forumla for the perimeter of a square is:

P = 4s, where 's'=length of one side

The perimeter of a square with side of 4cm: P=4(4) = 16cm

Since the length of the rectangle = 6cm, we can set up an inequality to find the measure of the other side:

2w + 2(6) < 16 or 2w + 12 < 16

Subtract 12 from both sides: 2w + 12 - 12 < 16 - 12 or 2w < 4

Divide and solve:  2w/2 < 4/2 or w < 2 cm

sophia is 6 years older than her brother eric. the sum of their ages is 28. write and solve an equation to find sophia and Eric'
zimovet [89]

s = 6 + e

s + e = 28

We can use this system of equations to find the exact values of s and e.

We have a current value of s, so we can find the exact value of e now.

e + e + 6 = 28

<em><u>Combine like terms.</u></em>

2e + 6 = 28

<em><u>Subtract both sides by 6.</u></em>

2e = 22

<em><u>Divide both sides by 2.</u></em>

e = 11

Now we have an exact value of e, and can solve for the value of s.

s = 6 + 11

s = 17

Sophia is 17 years old, and Eric is 11 years old.

All we must do is understand some basic keywords, such as times which represents multiplication, less which represents subtraction, and more which can represent addition or multiplication.<span />

Define communicative, associative and distributive property below​
Luba_88 [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

okay  so The commutative property states that the numbers on which we operate can be moved or swapped from their position without making any difference to the answer. The property holds for Addition and Multiplication, but not for subtraction and division.

The associative property states that you can add or multiply regardless of how the numbers are grouped. By 'grouped' we mean 'how you use parenthesis'. In other words, if you are adding or multiplying it does not matter where you put the parenthesis. Add some parenthesis any where you like!.

distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.
