We’ll use x to represent the mystery number.

“Sixteen less than” means subtraction, so we have 16 -

“Less than a number” simply means 16 - x

“Equals - 19” sets 16 - x equal to -19. In other words, 16 - x = -19

To solve, we subtract 16 to get x alone:

-x = -35

Divide the entire equation by -1 to make x positive:

-1(-x = -35) leaves us with x = 35

The number is -3 because -3 minus 16 equals -19.

A square room has a perimeter of 40 feet. What is the area of the room?
Trava [24]

Answer:

100 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 congruent sides in a square

Perimeter = 4x

40 = 4x

x = 10

Area = base x height or length x width

Since all sides are the same, 10 is base and height

10x10 = 100

units = ft²

Answer = 100 ft²
