If the width is 2 cm less than its length, the expression is this: w = L - 2. The length then is just L. The perimeter formula is 2L + 2w = P. Filling in accordingly, we have 2L + 2(L-2)=52 and 2L + 2L - 4 = 52. 4L = 56 and L=14. The width then is 12. There you go!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If 3/4 of the lot was full and the lot holds 1000 vehicles, then there are 3/4(1000) in the lot. 3/4(1000) = 750. That means there are 750 vehicles in the lot. If 200 cars are in the lot, then 750 - 200 = 550 trucks.

Maria has five orange, seven green, three red, and nine blue toothpicks in a bag. If Maria randomly selects one toothpick out of

Kryger [21]

Well first you have to find how many toothpicks in the bag so O+G+R+B=24. So 24 toothpicks in a bag. And R+B=12 so you can simplify and do 1 of the following

1.12 2. 6 3. 3 4. 2 5. 1
--- -- -- -- ---
24 12 6 4 2

Hope this helps!!

A fertilizer covers 3/8 square foot in 1/6 of an hour? what is the unit rate

snow_lady [41]

Multiply 1/6 by 6 to get 1 for a unit rate, so then multiply 3/8 by 6 to make it equal. *you cannot multiply each fraction by different numbers* 3/8 times 6 is 18/8, so that can reduce to 2 and 2/8 also known as 2 and 1/4. the unit rate is 2 and 1/4 jn an hour.
