Answer:
The length is 14 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
length = L
width = W
perimeter = P
"The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of its length and its width."
P = 2(L + W)
"The perimeter is 40 meters"
40 = 2(L + W)
"and its length is 2 meters more than twice its width."
L = 2W + 2
Replace L with 2W + 2 in equation 40 = 2(L + W):
40 = 2(2W + 2 + W)
40 = 2(3W + 2)
20 = 3W + 2
3W = 18
W = 6
The width is 6 meters.
L = 2W + 2 = 2(6 m) + 2 m = 12 m + 2 m = 14 m
Answer: The length is 14 m.
Answer:
2.
Step-by-step explanation:
This option provides all information needed to solve it.
It correctly tells you that H + P = 14, and has the numbers in the correct places.
Problem
500 students wore blue and 300 students did not. What percent of all the students attending the game wore blue?
Result
62.5% of all the students attending the game wore blue.
Solution
We can calculate the percent of students wearing blue, after finding the total amont of students, using division and multiplication.
Let's add
500 + 300 = 800
Let's divide
800/500 = 0.625
Let's multiply
0.625 · 100 = 62.5
A: -4/5
Sum means addition
