let L = length and let W = width.
Use the equations 2L + 2W = 2750
and L = 5W + 15
Then do the steps as follows -
1. Plug the equation for what L equals into the first equation
2(5W+15) + 2W = 2750
2. Then distribute the 2
10W + 30 + 2W = 2750
3. Then add like terms
12W + 30 = 2750
4. Then subtract 30 from both sides
12W = 2720
5. Divide by 12 on both sides
W = 226.67
6. Then plug that into the second equation
L = 5(226.67) + 15
L = 1148.35 should be the answer
Find 9/20 of 100
9/20 * 100 = 900/20 = 45

Answer: 10
----------------------------------------------
Explanation:
Segment TU must be congruent (equal in length) to segment UV in order for the angle TSV to be bisected by segment SU
Bisected = cut in half
So because TU = UV, we can say,
TU = UV
3x+18 = 4x+8
3x+18-3x = 4x+8-3x
18 = x+8
18-8 = x+8-8
x = 10
