Answer:

That's called system of equations. it is like adding and subtracting.

Step-by-step explanation:

first you want to find x or y. i will choose x. in order to do that you need to put one, ill do the first one but you can do first or second, and change it to negative (-6x+6y=6) or -(-6x+6y=6), changing it to 6x - 6y = -6. then the two x's will be cancled since 6-6 is 0. now you add 6y and 3y, and 6 with -12. get your answer, and do the same thing to y, too. sorry if its a bit confusing, took me a while to learn it too. this is highschool stuff so thats why you will although im im middle too!

Give your answer in minutes.

Illusion [34]

In an hour there are 60 minutes.

6:38 PM + 22minutes = 7 PM
From 7 PM to 7:23 PM there are 23 minutes

So, (23 + 22) minutes = 45 minutes.

The formula for finding the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2L + 2W. If a rectangle has a perimeter of 68 inches and the length

Artemon [7]

Answer:

Width = 10 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the perimeter of a rectangle of 68 inches, and a length that is 14 inches longer than its width.

We can establish the following values to help us solve for the width of a rectangle:

Perimeter (P) = 68 inches

Length (L) = 14 + W inches

Width (W) = unknown

<h3 /><h3><u>Solve for the Width (W)</u></h3>

P = 2(L + W) ⇒ This is the same as P = 2L + 2W, except that 2 is factored out from the right-hand side.

Divide both sides by 2:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{P}{2}\:=\:\frac{2(L\:+\:W)}{2}}$

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{P}{2}\:=L\:+\:W}$

Substitute the value of the Perimeter and the length (L) into the formula:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{68}{2}\:=14\:+W\:+\:W}$

Combine like terms on the right-hand side, and simplify the left-hand side of the equation:

$\displaystyle\mathsf{34\:=14\:+2W}$

Subtract 14 from both sides:

34 - 14 = 14 - 14 + 2W

20 = 2W

Divide both sides by 2 to solve for the width (W):

$\displaystyle\mathsf{\frac{20}{2}\:=\:\frac{2W}{2}}$

W = 10 inches

Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 10 inches.

<h3 /><h3><u>Double-check:</u></h3>

Verify whether the derived value for the width is correct:

P = 2L + 2W

68 = 2(14 + 10) + 2(10)

68 = 2(34) + 20

68 = 48 + 20

68 = 68 (True statement).

Thus, the length of the rectangle is 34 inches, and the width is 10 inches.
