Define x and y:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Let the length be x.
Let the width be y.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Formula:
----------------------------------------------------------------
Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Construct equations and solve for x and y:
----------------------------------------------------------------
2x + 2y = 56 ---------------------- (1)
2(x+8) + 4y = 82 -----------------------(2)
----------------------------------------------------------------
From equation 1:
----------------------------------------------------------------
2x + 2y = 56
x + y = 28
x = 28 - y
----------------------------------------------------------------
From equation 2:
----------------------------------------------------------------
2(x+8) + 4y = 82
2x + 16 + 4y = 82
2x + 4y = 66
x + 2y = 33
----------------------------------------------------------------
Substitute x = 28 - y into equation 2:
----------------------------------------------------------------
x + 2y = 33
(28 - y) + 2y = 33
28 - y + 2y = 33
y = 5
----------------------------------------------------------------
Substitute y = 5 into equation 1:
----------------------------------------------------------------
x = 28 - y
x = 28 - 5
x = 23
----------------------------------------------------------------
Find Length and Width
----------------------------------------------------------------
Length = x = 23 m
Width = y = 5m
----------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Length = 23m and Width = 5m
----------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
3:5 <em>the colon is needed to represent the ratio</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
r = 10
g = 4
y = 30 - 14 = 6
y = 6
so ratio of total balls is 10:4:6
and ratio of y:r is
6:10
simply by dividing by 2
3:5
Answer:
$176
Step-by-step explanation:
$200 x 12%
12% --> 0.12
200 x 0.12 = 24 --> discounted off amount
200 - 24 = 176
9+10=19 it’s an addition problem and the sum is 19
