Length(l)= 2w
width(w)= w
Perimeter(P)= 2w+2l= 72 (simplify expression: divide each side by 2 )
P= w+l= 36 (plug in "2w" for "l")
P= w+(2w)= 36
P= 3w= 36 (divide each side by 3 to find the width)
w= 12 units
find length:
l=2w
l= 2(12)
l= 24 units
Answer:
The length of this rectangle is 24 units and the width is 12 units.
Answer:
a,d
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction will 4/7 you cannot simplify 4/7
Answer:
2%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the first number
It increases by 70 %
The new number is
m = x+ .70x
= 1.7x
Let y be the second number
It decreases by 40 %
The new number is
n =y - .40 y
= .6y
The product of the original numbers is xy
The product of the new number is
mn = (1.7x * .6y) = 1.02xy
The new number is larger than the old number so it is an increase.
Percent increase is new - original divided by original times 100%
Percent increase = (1.02 xy - xy)
----------------- * 100%
xy
= .02 xy
------- * 100 %
xy
= .02 * 100 %
= 2%
