Answer:
C
The "inverse operation" is just a way of saying "what do you do to isolate the variable". In this case, we isolate y, so we have to move all terms to the right side. To do that, we subtract 12 from each side to there will only be "y" on the left side.
Okay, so you know that the perimeter of the pen is 28 feet. Now we need the separate side lengths.
P = 28 ft.
Length = x
Width = (1/2)x + 2
So now we can plug in the little equations of length and width into a perimeter formula:
2(x) + 2((1/2)x + 2) = 28
Distribute the 2's and solve as needed.
2x + x + 4 = 28
3x + 4 = 28
3x = 24
x = 8
To find the width, just plug in 8 for x in our little equation:
(1/2)(8) + 2
= 6
So, the length is 8 feet and the width is 6 feet.

Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helped!!!!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3 multiplied by x is the same value of 6
2. since 3x is on the left side we have to divide the equation by 3 on both sides which doesn't change the value of x, but it helps us get the value for x. so when you divide the equation by 3 the answer for x=6/2 which 2 divided by 6=3
Hope that helps :)
