Hello!
When finding the perimeter of a rectangle, you have to consider the properties of a rectangle. A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides where one is the width, while the other one is the length.
Now looking back at your question, it says "... a rectangle that is x units wide" ⇒ you let the width = x ; this is the same with "y units long" ⇒ length = y. Perimeter can just be : P = 24.
Therefore,
The equation would be:
x + x + y + y = P.
2x + 2y = P.
(Sub in P = 24)
∴ 2x + 2y = 24. (This should be your answer.)
:) Good luck (Message me if you have any problem)
-7 - (5.x) = 28? Is that what you were looking for?
The linear equation that represent the left balance of sanjaya’s y after visiting x number of days is:
y = 10x + 500.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
y = mx + b
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.
From the data given, we have that:
- The y-intercept is of 500.
Hence the balance is given as follows:
y = 10x + 500.

Hey
Area of first rectangle = 18 x 21 = 378 in^2
Area of second rectangle = 17 x 9 = 153 in^2
Total area = 378+153 = 531 in^2
Option 1
Hope this helps :)
