Answer:

<h2>Length = 13 in. </h2>

 Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter of a rectangle (P) = 2L + 2W

where;

P = 42 in.  

Length (L) = 5 + W

Find:

length (L) of the rectangle

solution:

P = 2L + 2W

42 = 2(5 + W) + 2W

42 = 10 + 2W + 2W

42 - 10 = 4W

32 = 4W

W = 32/4

W = 8

Length (L) = 5 + W

                = 5 + 8

                 = 13 in

proof:

42 = 2(13) + 2(8)

42   = 42 in

0.50x-6=4

move -6 to the other side

sign changes from -6 to 6

0.50x-6+6= 4+6

0.50x= 10

divide by 0.50 for both sides

0.50/0.50x= 10/0.50

x= 20

It would be 15 because the 35 people at most minus the 20 students equals 15 so that would be the greatest number of adults allowed to be there.
