The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the formula,

We substitute,
and

into the above formula to obtain the expression,


We now group the x and y terms on the Left Hand Side of the equation to get.


We now divide through by 2 to get,

Therefore the width of the rectangle is

Answer: a= b/ b+2
Step 1: factor out variable a.
a(b+2)= b
Step 2: divide both sides by b+2.
a(b+2)/ b+2 = b/b+2
Answer:
456
Step-by-step explanation:
11.5 oz would be 2 standard deviations below the mean... z -score = -2 = .0228 (from Z-Score table)
22.8% of 2000 = 456
EXPLANATION
Let's see the facts:
$Sandwiches= 3*$Salads
Bill = $24.92
We can represent this in an equation:
Total Bill = Sandwiches + Salads
Let's call to Sandwiches "x" to Salads "y" and to Bill "B"
Then, the equation will be:
B = x+y = (3*y) + y
Applying distributive property:
24.92 = 3y + y
Adding similar terms:
24.92 = 4y
Dividing both sides by 4:
6.23 = y
Switching:
y=6.23
As we know, y variable represent the salads cost, so:
Answer is $6.23.
17,98 $ (subtraction)
