The width is 18.

step by step:
1. 2 lengths are 20 which is 20+20 that's 40.
2. 76-40= 36
3. Two widths are 36 cm.
4. so do 36÷2 and that equals 18

The formula of a perimeter of a rectangle:

P = 2(w + l)

We have P = 76 cm and l = 20 cm.

Substitute:

2(w + 20) = 76       use distributive property

(2)(w) + (2)(20) = 76

2w + 40 = 76     subtract 40 from both sides

2w = 36       divide both sies by 2

w = 18

<h3>Answer: the width = 18 cm</h3>

If six times a number is decreased by fourteen, the result is 124. What is the number
denis23 [38]

Answer:

\large\boxed{23}

Step-by-step explanation:

Six times a number is decreased by fourteen, the result is 124.

Write an equation that represents this

(6 * x) - 14 = 124

Multiply 6 by x to remove the parenthesis

6x - 14 = 124

Add 14 to both sides of the equation

6x = 138

Divide both sides of the equation by 6

x = 23

The unknown number is \large\boxed{23}

Hope this helps :)
