5.3 repeating is the answer
Answer:
w = 
Step-by-step explanation:
p = 2l + 2w Subtract 2l from both sides of the equation
p - 2l = 2p Divide both sides by 2
= w
So first, we multiply out the brackets.
-15x - 18 + 2 = 17 + 16x -1
Then, bring all the terms onto one side so you can solve.
-15x-18+2-17-16x+1=0
Then, we simplify this.
-31x-32=0
Then, isolate x
-31x=32
x=32/-31 or -1.03 (nearest hundredth )
The first step to solving this problem is Multiplying In(x-1).
It is easier to write the equivalent ratios first, then use that information to find the missing values.
3. ratio: cars/trucks = 3/5, or trucks/cars = 5/3. Missing value: 6/3*5 = 10.
4. ratio: TVs/Computers = 2/7, or Computers/TVs = 7/2. Missing value: 21/7*2 = 6.
