Answer: The length of the rectangle is 15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L represent the length of the rectangle.

Let W represent the width of the rectangle.

The perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as 2 length + 2 width

Perimeter = 2(L + W)

The rectangle has a perimeter of 52 inches. It means that

2(L + W) = 52

L + W = 52/2 = 26 - - - - - - - 1

The length of the rectangle is 4 inches more than its width. It means that

L = W + 4

Substituting L = W + 4 into equation 1, it becomes

W + 4 + W = 26

2W = 26 - 4 = 22

W = 22/2 = 11

L = W + 4 = 11 + 4 = 15

Which of the following is the solution
serg [7]
|x| + 9 ≤ <span>7
</span>
Add -9 from each side
<span><span>|x| + 9 </span>+ <span>−9 </span></span>≤ <span>7 + <span>−9
</span></span><span>|x| </span>≤ <span>−<span>2
</span></span>
Now solve the absolute value
(You can't because the absolute value would end up less than 0 and it's not possible for that to happen)

What is the area of this figure?​
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Area is measured in "square" units. The area of a figure is the number of squares required to cover it completely, like tiles on a floor. Area of a square = side times side. Since each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one side squared.

Step-by-step explanation: hope this helps
