The answer is that y is equal to -3 and x is equal to 7
2x-y=17
-2(x-y)=10 )
--------------
2x-y=17
-2x+2y=-20
----------------
y=-3
x-y=10
x-(-3)=10
x+3=10
-3 -3
----------
x=7
Answer:
infinite
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
-7(-3r+2)=3r-6
Distribute the - 7
21r-14=3r-6
Add 14
21r=3r+8
Subtract 3r
18r=8
Divide 18r by 8
2.25 should be the answer to r.
There is no other way to rewrite the expression from fractional form
Answer:
17.5 in
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given
The perimeter of a rectangle is 53 inches
let the two shorter sides be the width w
so w+w= 18in
the two longer sides is L
L+L=2l
Step two:
but the expression for the perimeter of a rectangle is
P=2W+2L
53= 18+2L
53-18=2L
35=2L
divide both sides by 1
L=35/2
L=17.5
