The width is w
The length is w + 70
Perimeter: p = 2(l + w) and =500
Substitute what you know:
500 = 2(w+ 70 + w)
Combine like terms:
500 = 2( 2w + 70)
Distribute 2 to both terms
500=4w-140
640 = 4w
w = 640/4 = 160 feet L= w +70= 160 + 70= 230 ft.

 and 10,000/2=5,000. your answer would be either they multiplied 5,000 by 2 and 10,000 divided by 2, they increased the sales by 5,000

A ladder is placed against the side of a house. The top of the ladder is 12 feet above the ground. The base of the ladder is 5 f
Colt1911 [192]
This is the Pythagorean theorem where the 2 legs of a triangle squared add up to equal the squared hypotenuse (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)

The equation would be
12^2 + 5^2 = x^2

144 + 25 = 169

The square root of 169 = 13

Answer - 13 ft
