Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Length of the rectangle = x

Width = x - 2

Perimeter = 16 cm

2 * ( length + width) = 16

2 * ( x + x-2 ) = 16

2 * (2x - 2) = 16

2x - 2 = 16 /2

2x - 2 = 8

2x = 8+2

2x= 10

x = 10/2

x = 5

Length of the rectangle = 5 cm

Solve for m. m + -m + 5m − -7m = -12

nevsk [136]

Simplify both sides of the equation
M+-m+5m+7m = -12
Combine like terms
12m=-12
Decide both sides by 12
12m/12=-12/12
The answer is m=-1
