So keep in mind a negative minus a negative is the same as a negative plus a positive. For example -9-(-7) is the same as -9+7 because the 2 minuses cancel each other. So all you have to do is -9 + 7 = -2. If you’re confused, try looking on a number line and count it.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 50 centimeters. If the width of the rectangle is 9 centimeters
nordsb [41]

Answer:

Length = 17 cm

Width = 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length be x cm

Therefore, Width = (x - 9) cm

Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l +w)

50 = 2[x + (x - 9)]

50/2 = 2x - 9

25 = 2x - 9

25+ 9 = 2x

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17 cm

x - 9 = 17 - 9 = 8 cm

Therefore,

Length = 17 cm

Width = 8 cm

Thus, the dimensions of the rectangle are 17 cm and 8 cm.
