Answer: Length = 11 feet

Width = 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a four sided shape that has 2 equal lengths,L and 2 equal widths,W

The perimeter of the rectangular piece of land is the total distance around it. It is expressed as

Perimeter = 2L + 2W = 2(L+W)

The perimeter is given as 34ft. It means that

34 = 2(L+W) - - - - - - - -1

The length of the rectangular piece of land is 5ft more than two times its width. It means that

L = W + 5

Substituting L = W + 5 into equation 1, it becomes

34 = 2(W + 5 +W) = 2(2W + 5)

2W + 5 = 34/2 = 17

2W = 17 - 5 = 12

W = 12/2 = 6 feet

L = W + 5 = 6+5

L = 11 feet

Mark read 2 1/2 books last week. This week he read 3 1/3 books. How many more books did Mark read this week and last week?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

5/6 books

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Mark read 2 1/2 books last week. This week, he read a bit more with 3 1/3 books.

To find how many more books he read, we must subtract 2 1/2 from 3 1/3:

3 1/3 - 2 1/2

Let's convert these into improper fractions first:

3 1/3 = (3 * 3 + 1) / 3 = 10/3

2 1/2 = (2 * 2 + 1) / 2 = 5/2

Now, we have:

10/3 - 5/2

In order to subtract these, we must find a common denominator. For 2 and 3, the LCM is 6, so we can use that as our common denominator:

10/3 * 2/2 = 20/6

5/2 * 3/3 = 15/6

Finally, we have:

20/6 - 15/6 = (20 - 15) / 6 = 5/6 books
