Answer:

74 feet and 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Mentioned that

The  Length of the dog park is = (8x + 2)............(i)

And,

The Width of the park is = (2x -12)..................(ii)

Perimeter = 160 feet

Now here we use the perimeter formula which is

Perimeter is

= 2 (length + width)

160 = 2 (8x + 2 + 2x - 12)

160 = 2 (10x - 10)

160 = 20x - 20

180 = 20x

x = 9

Now put the x value into the equation 1 and equaton 2

For the equaton 1, the length us

= 8x + 2

= 8(9) + 2

= 74 feet

And, the width is

= 2x - 12

= 2(9) - 12

= 18 - 12

= 6 feet

Can someone please help me with math.
Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

9) C. 35 + 0.12x = 44.36

10) B

11) A. 32

Step-by-step explanation:

9)

44.36 is the TOTAL so the equations have to EQUAL it.

PER mile means it's a variable so it's 0.12x:

35 is a constant so there's no variable attached:

35 + 0.12x = 44.36

10)

B because you have to cancel the y values and to do that, you multiply the 1st equation by 3.

11)

0.1x + 0.25(46 - x) = 6.70

0.1x + 11.5 - 0.25x = 6.7

-0.15x = 6.7 - 11.5

-0.15x = -4.8

x = 32
