( x + (x  -  9))  \times 2 = 70 \\( 2x - 9) \times2= 70 \\ 4x - 18 = 70 \\ 4x = 70 + 18 = 88
x =  \frac{88}{4}  = 22
the length is 22


and the width is
22-9=17





good luck

A grocery store sells 5 bottles of water for $3 and 15 bottles of water for$8 is the cost of the water proportional to the numbe
egoroff_w [7]
Hi there! 5 bottles of water for $3 would make $0.60 per bottle. 0.6 * 15 = 9. That means 15 bottles of water should equal $9, but instead it is $8. Based on that, no. The costs for bottles of water is not proportional to the numbers sold. Basically, you can divide to find unit prices and multiply the number of another item to see if the numbers are proportional.

Can someone please help me? i hope you can see this omg
Gemiola [76]

Step-by-step explanation:

length = (2x + 3) units

width = (x - 7) units

Area = 2( length × width)

Area = 2( (2x + 3) × (x - 7) )

Area = 2( 2x² - 14x + 3x - 21)

Area = 2 ( 2x² -11x - 21)

Area = 4x² - 22x - 42
