Answer:
<h2>x = -17</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
v=18
Step-by-step explanation:
10-3v-1=5(9-v)
first open the bracket
10-3v-1=45-5v
5v-3v=45-9
2v=36
v=18
Step 1:Solve one of the equations for either x = or y = .
Step 2:Substitute the solution from step 1 into the other equation.
Step 3:Solve this new equation.
Step 4:Solve for the second variable.
I hope this helps!
Answer:
(a)i. Area=72 square feet
ii. Perimeter =34 feet
(b) Baseboard - perimeter
Carpet - area
Step-by-step explanation:
The room is 9ft x 8ft, therefore it is rectangular shaped.
Length=9ft; Breadth=8ft
(a)i. Area of a Rectangle= Length X Breadth
Area of the room=8X9=72 square feet
ii. Perimeter of a Rectangle=2(Length+Breadth)
Perimeter of the room=2(8+9)=2 X 17 =34 feet
(b) A baseboard goes around the edge or boundary of the room, so it has to do with perimeter
A carpet covers the entire floor so it has to do with the area of the room.
L-s=16
4s-5=l
4s-l=5
3s=21
s=7
l-7=16
l=16+7
l=23
The smaller number is 7 and the greater number is 23
