Answer:

length: 16 m; width: 13 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Write each of the statements as an equation. You know that the formula for the perimeter is ...

P = 2(L +W)

so one of your equations is this one with the value of P filled in:

• 2L + 2W = 58

The other equation expresses the relation between L and W:

• L = W +3 . . . . . . . . the length is 3 meters greater than the width

There are many ways to solve such a system of equations. Since you have an expression for L, it is convenient to substitute that into the first equation to get ...

2(W+3) +2W = 58

4W +6 = 58 . . . . . . . simplify

4W = 52 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 6

W = 13 . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by 4

We can use the expression for L to find its value:

L = 13 +3 = 16

The length is 16 meters; the width is 13 meters.

46) Which of the following is equivalent to the expression below?
ddd [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your question doesn't match the picture. OCR is often inaccurate!—not that it matters much in this case. None of the choices is correct.

(20-4)·6² + 2 + 18 = 16·6² + 2 + 18

= 16·36 + 2 + 18

= 576 + 2 + 18

= 578 + 18

= 596

It cost you $12 to start up your
brilliants [131]

Step-by-step explanation:

let no. of hours be x.

45x - 12 ≥ 117

45x ≥ 129

x ≥ 2.8667 (5sf)

therefore, 3 hours (round up to next whole number).
