Answer:
-20x+128
Step-by-step explanation:
–8(x – 4) - (12x – 8)
distribute: -8x+32-12x+96
combine like terms
-20x+128
P = perimeter
Perimeter of a rectangle = l + l + w + w
or P = 2l + 2w
You know:
P = 150 m
l = w + 5 [length is 5 m greater than the width]
P = 2l + 2w Plug in what you know
150 = 2(w + 5) + 2w Simplify, distribute/multiply 2 into (w + 5)
150 = 2w + 10 + 2w
150 = 4w + 10 Subtract 10 to both sides of the equation
140 = 4w Divide 4 on both sides
35 = w
PROOF l = w + 5 ---> l = 40
P = 2l + 2w
150 = 2(40) + 2(35)
150 = 80 + 70
150 = 150
Answer: x = -8 ; y = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
1*x-2*y=4
1*x = 4 + 2*y
x = 4 + 2*y
Now you replace the value of x on the following equation:
-1*x+10*y=8
-1*(4 + 2*y) = 8
-4 - 2*y = 8
-2*y = 8+4
-2*y = 12
y = -12/2
y = -6
You replace the value of y in the previous equation:
x = 4 + 2*y
x = 4 + 2*(-6)
x = 4 - 12
x = -8
