Answer:

length = 20 cm

width = 9 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter =  58 cm

58cm = 2*L+2*w equation 1

L = 3w -7 equation 2

where:

L= length

w=width

so we have:

58 = 2(3w -7) +2w

58 = 6w -14 +2w

58 +14 = 8w

72 = 8w

w = 72/8

w = 9 cm = width

we have:

L = 3(9) -7 = 20 cm = length

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Alecia lives farther from school

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Georgia</em>

we know that

The distance from the school to her home is 67/100 of a mile

\frac{67}{100}=0.67\ miles

<em>Alecia</em>

we know that

The distance from the school to her home is

3/10 of a mile plus 4/10 of a mile

so

\frac{3}{10}+\frac{4}{10}=\frac{7}{10}=0.7\ miles

Compare the distances

0.7\ miles>0.67\ miles

therefore

Alecia lives farther from school

Solve the system of equations y=9x+13 y=2x+48
MakcuM [25]
Both are equal y. So you can set them equal to each other

9x+13=2x+48

Subtract 2x from both sides

7x+13=48
Subtract 13 from both sides

7x= 35

X=5

amid [387]

Answer:

Your answer is 37

Step-by-step explanation:

Caanan is 62 miles away and since he drives at 50 miles per hour, and if it is 2:30 then 30 minutes is half a hour, which means you divide 50 in half by 2 and get 25. After you do that then you subtract 62 and 25 to get your answer 37. Have a good day!!! :)
