You have a rectangle that has a width of w. the length us 2 more than the width, so the lengthis w+2. the perimeter is 142. so 142=w+w+(w+2)+(w+2). because the perimeter is all 4 sides added together 2 of those sides being the length and 2 beingtje width. combine like terms to get 142=4w+4. now you subtract 4 from each side and get 138=4w. divide both sides by 4. you get w=34.5. now, w is the width. the length is 2 more than w, which is 34.5+2, or 36.5

Lance has three times as many pencils as Nick, and they have 84 pencils together. How many pencils does each of them have?
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

Let Lance represented by L and Nick represented by N

As per the statement:

Lance has three times as many pencils as Nick

⇒L = 3N         .....[1]

It is also given that:

They have 84 pencils together.

⇒L+N = 84               .....[2]

Substitute the equation [1] into [2] we have;

3N+N = 84

⇒4N = 84

Divide both sides by 4 we have;

N = 21

Substitute this in [1] we have;

L = 3(21) = 63

Therefore, Lance has 63 pencils and Nick has 21 pencils
