P=2(l+w)
50=2(4+w)
50=8+2w
collect the like terms 50-8=2w
42=2w divide both sides by 2
w=21

What is 2/3, 7/6, 3 1/9, and 5 5/18 written as a decimal?

Paul [167]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2}{3} = 2 \times \frac{1}{3} = 2 \times 0.333 = 0.666 \\ \\ \frac{7}{6} = 7 \times \frac{1}{6} = 7 \times \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{3} = 7 \times 0.5 \times 0.333 = 1.1655 \\ \\ 3 \frac{1}{9} = 3 + \frac{1}{9} = 3 + ( \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{ 3} ) = 3 + (0.333 \times 0.333) = 3 \times 0.11088 = 3.11088 \\ \\ 5 \frac{5}{18} = 5 + (5 \times \frac{1}{18} ) = 5 + (5 \times \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{2} ) = 5 +(5 \times 0.333 \times 0.333 \times 0.5) = 5 + 0.27722 = 5.27722$

I need to figure out how many solutions does the system of equations below have.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The system has one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of solutions of the system, we equal both equations for y.

If we have ax = b, in which both a and b are different of 0, we have one solution.

If both a and b are 0, we have infinite solutions.

If a is 0 and b is not, there are no solutions.

y=6/7x-8 and y=7/9x+10/9

So

$\frac{6x}{7} - 8 = \frac{7x}{9} + \frac{10}{9}$

$\frac{6x}{7} - \frac{7x}{9} = \frac{10}{9} + 8$

$\frac{54x - 49x}{63} = \frac{10}{9} + \frac{72}{9}$

$\frac{5x}{63} = \frac{82}{9}$

$45x = 63*82$

Both a and b are different of 0, so the system has one solution.
