Answer:

x=8/9

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2(x-3)=-2(x-1)

1) Distribute 2 to x and -3:

5x+2x-6=-2(x-1)

2) Distribute -2 to x and -1:

5x+2x-6=-2x+2

3) Combine alike terms:

7x-6=-2x+2

4) Add 2x to both sides:

9x-6=2

5) Add 6 to both sides:

9x=8

6) Divide both sides by 9:

x=8/9

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

Length=22 inches and width=14 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the 1st condition

Perimeter=72

or, 2(l+b)=72

or, l+b=36..................equation(i)

According to second condition

l=2b-6.........................equation(ii)

Substituting the value of l form equation (i) to equation(ii)

2b-6+b=36

b=14

l=2*14-6

=22
