Answer:

L = 70

W = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

P = 2L + 2W

P 204 feet

W = x

L  = 2x + 6

P = 2L + 2W

P = 2*(2x + 6) + 2*x

P = 4x + 12 + 2x

P = 6x + 12

But we know that P = 204  So 6x + 12 = 204

6x + 12 = 204                    Subtract 12 from both sides

6x + 12 - 12 = 204 - 12       Collect like terms on the right

6x = 192                             Divide by 6

x = 192/6

x = 32

Answer

W = 32

L = 2*W + 6

L = 2*32 + 6

L = 64 + 6

L = 70

Decimals- do i move the decimal when adding or multiplying
EastWind [94]

Answer:

when adding you just line the decimals up like this, let's say you had to add 1 to 2.58.

2.58

+ <u> 1 .00</u>

3.58

when multiplying you might have to move it, say you had to multiply 1.5 by 2.2. (you don't have to line up the decimals like with addition)

1 .5

<u> </u><u>×</u><u> 2.2</u>

30

<u> </u><u>+</u><u> 300</u>

3.30

1.5 has one decimal place and 2.2 also has one decimal place so you put those 2 decimal places in your answer.

sorry if this is a bit confusing lol
