Formula for perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + W)
let the number be x
width = 2x + 8
length = 3(2x + 8)
substitute respectively
96 = 2 (2x + 8 + 3(2x + 8)) open the bracket
96 = 2 ( 2x + 8 + 6x + 24) collect like terms
96 = 2 (8x + 32) open the bracket
96 = 16x + 64
collect like terms
96 - 64 = 16x
32 = 16x
divide both sides by 16
32/16 = 16x/16
2 = x
therefore, the width = 2x + 8 = 2(2) + 8 = 4 + 8 = 12.
and the length = 3(2x + 8) = 6x + 24 = 6(2) + 24 = 12 + 24 = 36.

How to solve this Algebra question?

  • Slope formula: \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Firstly, let's set up our equation. Place the two coordinates in the slope formula and have it equal 8: \frac{3k-4-k}{5-(-2)}=8

Next, combine like terms: \frac{2k-4}{7}=8

Next, multiply both sides by 7: 2k-4=56

Next, add 4 onto both sides of the equation: 2k=60

Lastly, divide both sides by 2 and <u>your answer will be k=30</u>

Coach Rivas can spend up to $750 on 30 swimsuits for the swim team. The inequality shown can be used to find the maximum amount
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

$0 < p ≤ $25

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that coach Rivas can spend up to $750 on 30 swimsuits.

This means that the maximum cost that the coach can afford to pay is $750, then if the cost for the 30 swimsuits is C, we have the inequality:

C ≤ $750

Now, if each swimsuit costs p, then 30 of them costs 30 times p, then the cost of the swimsuits is:

C = 30*p

Then we have the inequality:

30*p ≤ $750.

To find the possible values of p, we just need to isolate p in one side of the inequality.

So we can divide both sides by 30 to get:

(30*p)/30 ≤ $750/30

p ≤ $25

And we also should add the restriction:

$0 < p ≤ $25

Because a swimsuit can not cost 0 dollars or less than that.

Then the inequality that represents the possible values of p is:

$0 < p ≤ $25
