3(5)-2[-2-4(5)] when simplified it turns into 15-2(-2-20) if you carry the 2 into the parentheses it would be 15+4+40 since two negatives make a positive and then the sum would be x=59
Use the information to form an equation x = width x + 6 = length perimeter = length + length + width + width x + x + x + 6 + x + 6 = 44 4x + 12 = 44 4x = 32 x = 32/4 x = 8 width = 8 meters length = 8 + 6 = 14 meters
