Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
l = 12 feet, w = 5.5
Discussion:
Let w be the width of the pen and "l" the length. From the problem statement
l = w + 6.5 and the perimeter, P, of the fence -= 35.
Now the perimeter of the rectangle is given by the formula
P = 2l + 2w.
In our case, P = 35 and l = w + 6.5 so the equation becomes:
35 = 2(w+6.5) + 2w =>
35 = 2w + 13 + 2w =>
35 = 4w + 13 => (subtract 13 from both sides)
35-13 = 4w =>
22 = 4w =>
w = 22/4 = 5.5 feet
As, l = w + 6.5, l = 5.5 + 6.5 = 12 feet
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
m/10?
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe that it is m/10, since you are dividing the number of muffins by 10 boxes, but this is worded kind of weirdly. Sorry I couldn't be more help.
