In both problems, the sum of side lengths is the perimeter. Opposite sides of a parallelogram (or rectangle) are equal in length, so you can find the perimeter by doubling the sum of adjacent sides.

There are 300 seats in the theater.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Cost of one VIP ticket = $20
Cost of one regular ticket = $8
Worth of sold out tickets = $3600
Let,
x represent the number of VIP tickets sold
y represent the number of regular tickets sold
20x+8y=3600 Eqn 1
y = 2x Eqn 2
Putting value of y from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1
Dividing both sides by 36
Putting x=100 in Eqn 2
Total = x+y = 100+200 = 300
There are 300 seats in the theater.

Answer:
0,-11
Step-by-step explanation:
-p^2 − 11p = 0
Factor out -p
-p( p+11) =0
Using the zero product property
-p =0 p+11 =0
p =0 p = -11
