Length = l = 3x
Width = w = 2x
P = 2l + 2w
P = 2(3x) + 2(2x)
530 = 6x + 4x
530 = 10x
53 = x
Length = 3x = 3(53) = 318 / 2 sides = 159
<span>Width = 2x = 2(53) = 212/ 2 sides = 106
the length of the lot is 159 yards
the width of the lot is 106 yards</span>
Let the number be x;
(2/3)x=-6
2x=-6×3
2x=-18
x=-9
Therefore, the number is -9.
Hope I helped :)
Answer:
x=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the problem into y=mx+b format we knoe the inital value b is 6 now m is 3 and y the overall price is 24. Use the distributive property.
24=6+3x y=6+3x y=24
-6 -6
<u>18</u>=<u>3x</u>
3 3
6=x
x=6
Two ratios are 3:4 and 18:24
