Legnth are x and y
x+y=100
one is 16 more than other
x is 16 more than y
x=16+y
x=16+y therefor we can put 16+y for x
(16+y)+y=100
16+y+y=100
16+2y=100
minus 16 both sides
2y=84
divide by 2
y=42
sub back
x=16+y
x=16+42
x=58
the legnsh are
42 cm and 58cm
Assuming you are supposed to solve for the variable "t",
9 - (t ÷ 6) = 5
Subtract 9 from both sides.
9 - 9 - (t ÷ 6) = 5 - 9
Simplify.
- (t ÷ 6) = -4
Distribute -1 throughout the parenthesis.
-t ÷ -6 = -4
Multiply both sides by -6.
-t ÷ -6 × -6 = -4 × -6
Simplify.
-t = 24
Divide both sides by -1.
-t ÷ -1 = 24 ÷ -1
Simplify.
t = -24
5x=2x=35
7x=35
x=35/7
x=5
5x=25 girls
2x=10 boys
hope i helped you
The first three you should check off because the man lost less so the last few questions would be wrong
