First step: Find how wide the bulletin board is
15 ft² ÷ 3 ft = 5 ft
Step the second: Use the perimeter formula P = 2l + 2w
P = 2(5) + 2(3)
<u>P = 16 ft</u>
-5(x+7)<-10.
You need to use the distributive property.
-5x - 35 < -10.
You need to cancel out -35, so you add it to itself, & -10.
-5x < 25.
You need to divide -5 by itself & 25.
x>-5.

Answer:
x = 13 and y = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 18
x - y = 8
<u>Step 1: Find y</u>
x = 18 - y
(18 - y) - y = 8
18 - y - y - 18 = 8 - 18
-2y / -2 = -10 / -2
<em>y = 5</em>
<em />
<u>Step 2: Plug into x + y = 18 to get x</u>
x + 5 - 5 = 18 - 5
<em>x = 13</em>
<em />
Answer: x = 13 and y = 5
