Answer:

$16$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Combine like terms

$-14x + 16 + 6x + 2y$

$(-14x + 6x) + 2y + 16$

$-8x + 2y + 16$

Step 2: The constant is the number without a variable.

$-8x + 2y + 16$

The only number without a variable is number 16. So... the answer is 16.

The length of each side of a regular pentagon is increased by 8 inches, so the perimeter is now 65 inches. What is the original

evablogger [386]

Here as the Pentagon is regular so it's all sides will be of equal length . And if we assume It's each side be s , then it's perimeter is going to be (s+s+s+s+s) = 5s.And as here , each side is increased by 8 inches and then it's perimeter is 65 inches , so we got that it's side after increament is (s+8) inches and original length is s inches . And if it's each side is (s+8) inches , so it's perimeter will be 5(s+8) and as it's equal to 65 inches . So , 5(s+8) = 65
