Answer:

W=4 l=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width

Let l = length

Since the length is 4 times the width, l=4w

Perimeter of rectangle = 2l + 2w

= 2(4w)+2w

=10w

The perimeter of the rectangle =40, so

40=10w and w=4

Plug w into the length equation : l=4w=4(4)=16

Someone please help me on this math problem!

Look at the picture.

Therefore we have the equation:

10y - 29 = 7y + 19       <em>add 29 to both sides</em>

10y = 7y + 48          <em>subtract 7y from both sides</em>

3y = 48      <em>divide both sides by 3</em>

y = 16



3x + 7 = 5x - 21            <em>subtract 7 from both sides</em>

3x = 5x = -28         <em>subtract 5x from both sides</em>

-2x = -28     <em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>

x = 14

The pyramid shown has a square base that is 12 inches on each side. It has a surface area of 336 square inches. What is the slan
blagie [28]
Let b and h represent the length of the side of the base and the slant height, respectively. Then the total surface area is
  A = b² + 4*(1/2)bh
  A = b² +2bh

Substituting the given numbers, you have
  336 = 12² +2·12·h
  192 = 24h . . . . . . . . . subtract 12² = 144
  8 = h . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 24

The slant height is 8 inches.

Kelly solved an equation: H/ 4 - 11 = 13 using two inverse operations of adding 11 to both sides of the equations, and then divi
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

She should have multiplied by 4, not divided

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{H}{4} - 11 = 13 ( add 11 to both sides ) ← correct

\frac{H}{4} = 24 ( multiply both sides by 4 to clear the fraction )

H = 4 × 24 = 96

H is divided by 4, thus the inverse operation is to multiply
