P = perimeter = 2L + 2W = 86 cm. Also, L = W + 4. Subst. W + 4 for L,
P = 2(W + 4) + 2W = 86 cm. Then 2W + 8 + 2W = 86 cm, and 4W = 78 cm.
Finally solving for W, W = (78 cm)/4, or 19.5 cm.
If W = 19.5 cm, then L = W + 4 cm = 19.5 cm + 4 cm = 23.5 cm
The rectangle's dimensions are 19.5 cm by 23.5 cm.
Tomas used incorrectly the rule of signs, the expression should be simplified as follows:
-2.6 + (-5.4)
-2.6 -5.4 = 8
<h3>

What mistake did Tomas likely make?</h3>
Here Tomas wants to perform an addition between two numbers:
-2.6 + (-5.4)
And the outcome that Tomas gets is:
-2.6 + (-5.4) = 2.8
Here his mistake seems to bee that he thought the second number was a positive number, and he solved the operation:
-2.6 + 5.4
So, he used wrong the rule of signs.
Remember that the rule of signs says that:
(-)*(+) = (+)*(-) = (-)
Using that, we can rewrite the original expression:
-2.6 + (-5.4)
to:
-2.6 - 5.4
Solving that, we get:
-2.6 - 5.4 = -8
Which is the outcome that Tomas would have gotten if he had used correctly the rule of signs.

If 19 is half (50%) of something, find that number you would just have to multiply 19 by 2.
This means that 19 is 50% of 38.
